Abductor
Correct usage
The machine is designed for the functional training of the hip abducting
muscles in the open system. With this machine the hip abduction is trained in a
functional moving manner. The load is applied both concentrically and
eccentrically.
Specific positioning of the person training
The angle of inclination of the machine must be set according to the exercise
objective. Open (turn) the rotary handle while holding the machine at the same
time. This will release the tilt adjustment and the machine can be adjusted.
WARNING! This is a two-handed operation. With one hand, the ma-
chine is held firm and the other hand is used to release the turn-
ing/locking lever for adjustment.
By pulling the locking pin, the height of the lower leg support can be adjusted.
The height must be set so that the hip joint of the trainee is in a stretched
position and the knee is bent 90 °.
By pulling the locking pin, the lateral pelvic padding can be adjusted in such a
way that no evasive movements can be carried out during the movement.
When the trainee is positioned on the machine, the padding is pressed with
light pressure against the trainee's pelvis so that the locking pin engages
completely.
