5. TANK FILLING AND WATER TREATMENT
• Remove Black plug only for filling. Fill at MAX
resistance
+
sign only.
• Once filling is complete, insert tank plug into
place.
1. Filling requires a large bucket (not supplied) and the Fluid Rower Siphon (included). Filling will take approximately
4.5 gallons (17 liters) of water.
2. Remove the tank plug on top of tank and insert the flexible tube into the rear of the tank while keeping the rigid
hose in the bucket.
Note: Where water quality is known to be poor, Life Fitness recommends the use of distilled water.
3. Move the adjuster knob to the plus sign (+), and begin filling. Note: The siphon valve must be closed to allow
siphoning action to occur. Tip: Placing the bucket in an elevated position will allow the siphon to continually pump
water into the tank. Do not fill past the calibration mark indicated on the tank!
Note: Opening the siphon valve will stop the pumping action. Use this feature to avoid water spillage when
nearing filling completion.
4. Once filling is complete (to the proper calibration level as indicated on the tank), follow water treatment schedule
as shown.
WATER TREATMENT PROCEDURE:
1. Add one Water Treatment Tablet per full tank.
Note: The amount of water treatment can vary widely depending on the rower’s location and exposure to sunlight.
DO NOT, UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES USE OTHER TREATMENT TABLETS OTHER THAN THOSE SUPPLIED WITH
YOUR ROWER. Your rower box contents include 4x Water Treatment Tablets, which is sufficient for several years
of water treatment. Treat when water becomes discolored or shows signs of Algae/Bacterial growth. To purchase
additional Water Treatment Tablets, please consult your nearest regional dealer/distributor or check our website at

CAUTION: Use a drop cloth under the tank when filling to avoid staining floor or carpet.
WARNING: Do not insert fingers into tank!
