Device description

The exoskeleton is used to support the shoulder and neck muscles with work- related arm movements and load handling in front of the chest and above head height.

The exoskeleton is worn on the back here, similarly to a hiking backpack, and secured to the body with the lap strap [1-13], the belt system [1-10], the chest strap [1-4] and the armrests [1-3]. During operation, a vertical support force is introduced into the upper arm via the armrests, in order to reduce the load on the shoulder and neck muscles. Two headrests of different heights [1-9] can be optionally used to lean the head against during work, thereby increasing comfort during overhead work. The exoskeleton is controlled via the control module [1-11]. Energy is supplied via the battery pack [1-16].

The textile system can be removed from the exoskeleton and can be washed separately in a wash bag [1-1].

The packaging [1-17] is used to transport and put down the exoskeleton, for instance while setting the size.

Recommendation: Use a headrest when performing work overhead.

Choose whichever headrest seems most comfortable to you for the respective activity

Installing a headrest [3A]

Removing the headrest [3B]

Lift the headrest and remove it from the exoskeleton.

Compatibility test

The maximum support force of the exoskeleton is designed so that healthy persons can overcome it with their own muscular strength in the event of an emergency.

The movement radii of the exoskeleton are within the movement limits of persons without physical (joint) limitations. This ensures that overextension of joints cannot occur in healthy persons.

Nevertheless, for reasons of safety, test that the device is compatible with your physical condition.

• Position the exoskeleton (do not switch on).
• All possible movements that can be performed with the exoskeleton must be tested once.

If all movements can be realised without difficulty, then the exoskeleton can be switched on. Contact customer service in the event of doubt.

The exoskeleton has five power levels.

Power levels

0| Off, no support
1 – 2| Slight power assistance
2 – 3| Medium power assistance
4 – 5| Strong power assistance

Angle compensation

The exoskeleton recognises whether you are standing upright or bending forwards, for instance.

To prevent unwanted support in certain situations, the power assistance of the exoskeleton adapts itself to your posture. In extreme postures, this may even lead to power assistance switching off completely
