BRIEF INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE
The Pad can be used on either arm. Adjust the angle of the Pad slightly for the most comfort and to suit the swelling or positioning needs. Always ensure the setup is stable before placing your arm on it. Use a soft towel or sheet over the Pad for hygiene and comfort if desired.
Basic Setup (Standard Elevation)
- Place the Pad directly on a flat surface, such as the X-ray table, bed, couch, or recliner.

Increased Elevation (With Raiser)
- For higher arm elevation, place the Raiser on the flat surface first.
- Position the Pad securely on top of the Raiser.
- Check that the setup is stable and the Pad is not slipping.
