STORING THE ALLEGRO REFORMER
Stacking
To see a demonstration of how to stack the Allegro, watch the
Setup and Safety portion of the Allegro Introductory/Level 1 DVD.
Attach the springs to keep the carriage from moving. Move the
footbar to the “down” position. Remove the shoulder rests and
store in the slots at the head of the frame. Put the head rest
down. Remove the risers and store in the holes on the sides of
the frame. Place the ropes and loops inside the Allegro frame not
on the carriage. Alternate the orientation of the Allegros as you
stack them. Place the head end feet onto the standing platform
of the Allegro below, and so on. Stack a maximum of 5 reformers
with no legs (3 with legs). Do not stack Reformer with Towers.
Standing
It is absolutely critical that
the Allegro footbar be set and
locked in the correct position
for standing storage. Move
and lock the footbar into the
position closest to the foot-end
of the Reformer frame. Raise
the footbar to its highest
position. Lift the head-end
of the Allegro frame to waist
height. Then raise the frame
to vertical. Use your foot to
steady the wheeled end of the
frame as you lift to vertical.
The vertical Allegro will come
to rest on the footbar and the
transport wheels. See Figure H.
CLEANING & MAINTENANCE
Cleaning
Wipe the carriage pad, headrest, footbar and shoulder rests with
a soft cloth and a mild, non-abrasive cleaner after each use.
Keep the carriage track and wheels clean from dust and dirt.
Wipe the entire track with a towel regularly. Clean the footbar
trunnion track weekly. Clean the frame with a mild, non-abrasive
cleaner. Keep the ropes and springs clear of dust. Cotton loops
can be machine-washed. Hang to dry.
