8. Attaching the rope risers:
Part screw in the 2 adjustment knobs and insert the riser (Fig.13 & 14), then pull back on the knob and slide the riser to
the desired height. When happy with the height let go of the knob and twist to tighten and secure the riser in place
(Fig.15).

9. Attaching & setting up the Silent ropes:
First attach the silent handles by threading the nylon loop of the handle through the rope eyelet and then thread the
loop handle through the nylon eyelet to secure the handle to the rope as per Figs. 16, 17 & 18. Pull tight to check it is
secure. Now pass the end of each rope through the pulleys on the end of the rope risers.

Next pull the rope adjusting T bar all the way out as in (Fig 19). The T bar position is changed by
loosening the knob and then pulling back to disengage the locking pin, so that the bar can be slid back or forward.
Now put the spring bar in position 1 (Fig. 20) and place the nylon loop of the handle over the rope holder poles as in
Fig 19.
For the next part we recommend standing the reformer up (see 18a), with the assistance of another person,
so that they can hold the machine, whilst you make the required adjustments.
With the reformer upright thread each
rope through the rope holes on the T bar and pull the rope tight and then knot each rope so that the knot is flush
against the tube.
Repeat for the second rope and then check that the ropes are adjusted to exactly the same length, if they are not;
adjust one of the knots, the ropes should be taught with the nylon loop of the handle on the rope holder poles, whilst
making these adjustments. When both ropes are the same length and the knots pulled tight, tie an extra knot in the
tail of the rope for safety. The ropes tails can be coiled around the T bar to get them out the way.
To adjust the ropes when using the reformer, both ropes are simultaneously adjusted by loosening the adjustment
knob underneath the head rest, pulling back on the knob and sliding the T bar in our out. Sliding the T bar in Shortens
the ropes & pulling it out (Fig. 21) lengthens the ropes. Therefore as you move the spring bar away from the standing
platform you should move the T bar in under the carriage.
In summary when the spring bar is in position 1 the chrome part of the T bar should be all the way out (completely
visible) and for position 4 only the end of the chrome T bar should be visible.
