Using your Falcon comfortably
1. Novint recommends two workspace setups for using the Falcon to prevent
fatigue and injury:
1a. Rest your elbow on your chair’s arm rest so that
it supports your arm’s weight while you are using
the Falcon. Ideally you should use a chair that has
adjustable arm rests.
1b. Keep your arm parallel to the ground and not
touching the table.
2. While using the Falcon, maintain your wrist at a neutral position so that there
is no bend from your wrist to your hand.
3. Make sure the Falcon is clear of other objects on your desk (including food
and drinks).
4. Never place any part of your body other than your hand near the Falcon’s
workspace.
5. Take breaks from game play often.
Caution when using your Falcon
Although the Falcon is meant to be robust, it is still
a precision instrument.
DO NOT BE TOO ROUGH IN YOUR MOVEMENTS WITH
THE FALCON.
Avoid excessive force at the edges of the movement
range to avoid damage to any of its components.
Be sure that you don’t let go of the Falcon Grip
while you are using it, especially when there is a
big force.
Don’t leave small children unattended while using
the Novint Falcon.
DON’T PUSH THE
FALCON GRIP IN ANY
DIRECTION WITH
