Balanced Body Contrology, Manual

Page: 11 / 116

The Gear Block, used by all Reformer lengths, at the foot end is
installed on the left side rail of the gear positions as shown in
Figure F. The Gear Block has two settings, short and long. Figure
F shows the short position, when spring bar is in the middle or
“B” position. Flip the Gear Block over to get the long position, for
use when the springbar is in the last or “C” position
The Carriage Blocks are most
commonly used for clients
who have a limited range
of motion, or to stop the
carriage from traveling too
far. The Gear Block is used to
change the carriage starting
position.
INSTALL FOOTSTRAPS
Two footstraps are included
with the Reformer. Clip one
end of the strap to one eye
bolt on the inside foot end
of the frame, the other clip
to the other eye bolt on the
opposite side of frame end.
Repeat for second footstrap,
see Figure G.
HOW TO INSTALL EXTENSION STRAP
Remove the handles from both straps. Fold the extension strap
in half and insert the clip into and through the D-ring, see Figure
H. Attach the clip to the O-ring on the end of the strap. See
Figure I. Repeat this process for other strap.
INSTALL THE OPTIONAL JUMPBOARD (86”/218cm and
89”/226cm models only)
Correct installation of the jumpboard is very important. Lay the
footbar flat down on the Reformer. Install the jumpboard down
into the installed bracket on the inside of the foot end of the
Reformer. The padded side should face the carriage. Properly
installed the jumpboard will rest on the foot plate bracket, see
Figure J.
FIXED STRAP HOOK (OPTIONAL)
This Reformer comes with
an option to install a Fixed
Hook for the straps. This
can be installed as shown
in Figure K. Non-Adjustable
Strap Kit (210-146). If your
machine came with a Fixed
Strap Hook pre-installed,
it may be removed and a
Kit for Adjustable Straps
(210-145) may be purchased
separately.
