Caution: Wrong Routing Do not route the cable from outside of the handlebar. Caution: Wrong Routing The cable did not route through the axle of pivot arm first.
SAFETY OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS Incorrect Correct Pivot arm is NOT aligned correctly. The pivot arm is not inserted all the way into the curved slot. Make sure the pivot arm is inserted all the way into the slot. Pivot arm is aligned correctly when the groove sits directly on the curved slot and the pivot arm is able to rotate freely. WARNING: Please make sure both pivot arms are in the same hole to prevent serious injury from occurring.
OPERATION AND ADJUSTMENTS SHORTEN LENGTHEN THE STRAP For added safety, a nylon strap has been included to restrict the degree of inversion. This strap can be adjusted to different lengths to allow for a greater or lesser degree of inversion. To lengthen the Nylon Strap (32) feed the top end of Nylon Strap (32) into the strap lock, and pull on the lower end of the strap. To shorten the length feed the bottom end of Nylon Strap (32) into the strap lock, and pull on the top end.
PIVOT ARMS The Pivot Arms (5) can be adjusted to allow for a greater or lesser degree of inversion. To adjust the Pivot Arms (5) simply pull out on them until the post is out of the hole, slide them up or down to the desired hole, push in until the post goes through the desired hole. The bottom hole provides the least amount of inversion, while the top hole provides the greatest amount. It is recommended that beginners use the bottom hole until they are familiar with the inversion table.
GENERAL PRECAUTIONS 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. Make sure that the Pivot Arms (5) are locks on the lowest hole for the first few attempts. It is recommended that someone be with you while you are using this inversion table for the first few times. Make sure that the Front and Rubber Rear Heel Holders (31, 36) are holding your feet securely. Make sure that the Adjustable Boom (3) is properly set to your height.
SUGGESTIONS FOR USE 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. Begin slowly: invert only 15~20 degrees to begin with. Stay inverted only as long as you are comfortable. Return upright slowly. Make gradual changes: increase the angle only if it is comfortable. Increase angle only a few degrees at a time. Increase the time of use 1~2 minutes up to ten over a period of weeks. Add stretching and light exercise only after you are comfortable with inversion.
STORAGE FOLDING THE INVERSION TABLE For your storage convenience, the inversion table can be folded down to place against a wall, under a bed, or in a storage area. To fold the inversion table pull out the Ball Spring Knob (18) and loosen Knob (30).
ABOUT TEMPERATURE 1. 2. 3. The temperature readout is based on the sensor built-in with the Fiber Glass Infrared heater mat inside. It does not represent the temperature of the cushion surface. Put a towel or cloth on top of the cushion will help increase the temperature even faster. After the 15-20 minutes preheat time, get on the inversion table and lay your back on the heat cushion, the temperature will continue to increase.
REMOTE CONTROL AND CONTROLLER OPERATION 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. By default setting, when turned on, the temperature is set to 140 degrees F (60 degrees C), and timer is set to 40 minutes. This will ensure the far infrared foam bed heats up as quickly as possible. Adjust the temperature down to your desire setting after preheat. Set Low Heat at 100-110, Medium Heat at 120-130, or High Heat at 130-140 degrees F. The normal preheat time is 15-20 minutes, under room temperature at 68-77degrees F (20-25 degrees C).
WARM UP The WARM-UP is an important part of any workout. It should begin every session to prepare your body for more strenuous exercise by heating up and stretching your muscles, increasing your circulation and pulse rate, and delivering more oxygen to your muscles. HEAD ROLLS Rotate your head to the right for one count, feeling the stretch up the left side of your neck, then rotate your head back for one count, stretching your chin to the ceiling and letting your mouth open.
INNER THIGH STRETCH Sit with the soles of your feet together and your knees pointing outward. Pull your feet as close to your groin as possible. Gently push your knees toward the floor. Hold for 15 counts. TOE TOUCHES Slowly bend forward from your waist, letting your back and shoulders relax as you stretch toward your toes. Reach as far as you can and hold for 15 counts. HAMSTRING STRETCHES Extend your right leg. Rest the sole of your left foot against your right inner thigh.
