Assembly & User Instructions Conversion Bar for Teeter Hang Ups® Inversion Tables PURPOSE: Some users prefer to use the standard ankle clamps provided with the Teeter Hang Ups Inversion Table. Others prefer to use the Teeter Hang Ups Gravity Boots while inverting. To convert your inversion table for use with Gravity Boots, you must install the Conversion Bar - failure to do so could result in serious injury or death.
PRIOR TO USE Review all product support materials with the Teeter Hang Ups Gravity Boots and Inversion Table before inverting with the Teeter Hang Ups Conversion Bar. 1. Preparing the Inversion Table • Confirm that the Main Shaft is adjusted to your proper height setting. • Adjust the Ankle Comfort Dial (up or down) to ensure the hooks are securly hooked to the Conversion Bar with the bar touching or nearly touching the base of the hook while the feet rest flat on the Ankle Comfort Dial. 2.
Teeter Hang Ups® Gravity Boots are designed to be used with the following Teeter Hang Ups products: Teeter Hang Ups EZ-Up Inversion & Chin-Up Rack: ™ Gravity Boots can be used with the EZ-Up™ Inversion & Chin-Up Rack, a double-bar system that secures to a standard wood door frame. Quick-disconnect locking brackets allow the rack to be installed or removed in less than 5-seconds and do not interfere with normal use of the door.
Calf Loops: Why use them? Calf loops are an optional feature that easily detach, so shorter adults can easily invert. Calf loops provide the following benefits: 1. Reduce loads on the ankles and prevent the front edge of the boot from placing uncomfortable pressure on the top of your feet. 2. Offer a hand hold to help you get back up to the bar. User Instructions: Before putting on the boots, first time users should practice and fully understand how to insert the straps and how to snap-lock the buckles.

BEFORE YOU INVERT make sure that the inversion table rotates smoothly to the fully inverted position and back, and that all fasteners are secure. Make sure the user settings described below are properly adjusted for your unique needs and body type. Take your time finding your proper settings and remember them. Check these settings everytime prior to using the equipment. Roller Hinges: Find Your Setting The Roller Hinges control the responsiveness or rate of rotation.
Securing Your Ankles Figure 5 Figure 6 Figure 7 • Stand with your back to the Table Bed—do not use the inversion table face-down. • Step over the Main Shaft, placing your feet on the floor on either side. To balance yourself, rest only your lower body against the Table Bed as you slide one ankle at a time between the Front Ankle Cups and the Heel Cups, placing your feet on the Ankle Comfort Dial.
Inverting When correctly balanced, the inversion table will rotate in response to simple arm movements. To invert, lift your arms overhead slowly and to return upright, bring your arms back to your sides. Your arms provide the weight needed to rotate the table. (Figure 10). To ensure the inversion table does not rotate too far, too quickly: • Set the Roller Hinges to Setting “C” (as explained on pg.
