SIT & REACH (Range of Motion)

Range of Motion handle is not retracting

1. If the ROM handle is not retracting, the internal mechanism needs to be repaired by

Polar/HealthFirst service personnel.

2. Remove the ROM unit from the Sit & Reach station using a 5/32” Allen wrench

provided with your system.

3. Remove the only the 2 silver colored upper screws, DO NOT remove the smaller

lower black colored screws.

4. Unplug the ROM cable from the TriFIT 700iu box.

5. Remove the ROM unit.

6. Contact Tech Support for information on repairing your Range of Motion.

Range of Motion is inconsistent

1. Re-calibrate ROM (Defaults/Calibration) according to the instructions on the screen.

*It is much easier and more accurate to calibrate the ROM with two people.

2. Enter into a client test and perform another Sit and Reach test.

3. When the screen prompts to “Zero the System”, pull the handle out exactly 12” from

the foot plate and press the Enter key.

4. Return the handle slowly to the foot plate and allow the TriFIT to take the reading.

5. The measurement should be within ½ “ of 12”.

6. If the measurement is not within ½”, re-calibrate and repeat.

7. If still not within ½”, call the Polar/HealthFirst Corporation Technical Support Line

(505-344-9679).

If an error message appears on the screen during normal operation, print the error and fax to
