HOW TO MOVE THE ROWER IN THE UNFOLDED
POSITION
Stand behind
the rower and lift
the Rail (I) until
the rower will roll
on the wheels.
Then, carefully
move the rower
to the desired
location, and
lower the Rail to
the floor. Do not
hold or pull on
the console when moving the rower.
HOW TO MOVE THE ROWER IN THE FOLDED
POSITION
See HOW TO FOLD AND STORE THE ROWER
on page 12, and fold the rower. Then, hold the
Frame Handle (J), place your foot on a Stabilizer Foot
(Q), and tip the rower until it will roll on the wheels.
Carefully move the rower to the desired location, and
then tip it into the storage position. Do not hold or pull
on the console when moving the rower.
HOW TO ROW ON THE ROWER
Sit on the seat, place your feet in the footrests, and
adjust the straps to fit your feet. Then, hold the row bar
with an overhand grip.
Correct rowing form consists of three phases:
1. The first phase is the CATCH. Slide the seat
forward until your knees are almost touching your
chest. Pull the row bar until your hands are directly
above your feet.
2. The second phase is the DRIVE. Push backward
with your legs. Lean back slightly at the hips (not
at the waist), keeping your back straight. As you
straighten your legs, pull the row bar toward your
chest. Keep your elbows outward.
3. The third phase is the FINISH. Your legs should
be nearly straight. Continue to pull the row bar until
your hands are even with your chest.
After the finish phase, extend your arms forward and
pull the seat forward using your legs. Repeat this
sequence, moving through all three phases with a
smooth, fluid motion. Remember to breathe normally
as you row; never hold your breath.
