How to Shorten the Fillauer 1910124 Motion Arm Forearm Safely?

[AnthonyFitz]

Shortening the forearm of your Fillauer 1910124 Motion Arm requires careful attention to detail. Here’s a step-by-step guide to help you do it correctly, ensuring both safety and functionality. First, gather your tools: a forearm cutting tool, hacksaw blade, deburring tool or knife, fine sandpaper (220 grit), and two-part Urethane glue. Begin by removing the wrist End Cap or Electric Wrist Rotator from the forearm. Next, insert the circular disc into the cutting fixture and securely fasten the forearm section within the fixture using the provided parts. Accurately measure and mark the desired length on the cutting fixture. Place the cutting guide and arm in a vice and cut off the excess forearm material. Carefully deburr the edges of the forearm section and lightly sand the surface where the end cap will attach. If applicable, attach the appropriate wires on the back of the coaxial plug and test the connections before gluing the End Cap in place. Apply the two-part Urethane glue to the inside of the forearm and insert the end cap, twisting it a quarter turn to secure it. Allow approximately one hour for the glue to fully set before subjecting the end cap to any significant loads. Always keep in mind these precautions to preserve the integrity of your Fillauer 1910124 Motion Arm: Do not remove the forearm cover, as this can damage the waterproof seal and void the warranty. Ensure that you install a waterproof terminal device with a waterproof quick disconnect wrist to maintain the elbow's waterproof properties. Avoid removing any covers, screws, or parts not explicitly mentioned in the manual, as this could also compromise the waterproof seal and void the warranty.
