Assembly of the base unit
The RP3 rowing simulator comes pre-assembled into separate parts:
1.
Main frame assembly with flywheel
2.
Main bar
3.
Seat
4.
Front leg with Black Conical Bump Stop
5.
Rear leg with height adjustment knob
6.
Foot Stretcher Plates with 2 Bars and Hand Nuts
7.
USB cable
Tools needed:
All tools are supplied in a plastic box or bag but as the Bars is a tight fit into the legs it is
useful to have a soft hammer (As a substitute a hard hammer and a piece of wood for
cushioning can be used.)
General
The RP3 unit comes in a PU foam lined cardboard box that can be used for multiple
transports, as well as for a temporary workbench for assembling the unit.
All units are pre-assembled, and the main bars and main frames have been matched for the
proper clearance between main bar and rollers in the factory.
Prior to assembly check the serial numbers of the main frame and of and main bar
correspond.
All tools, bolts and screws that are needed for assembly are in the plastic bag or box .
The assembly procedure is as follows:
1.
Remove all the rowing simulator parts from the box and close it.
Put the main bar on the top of the box with the concave part facing upwards on top. Attach
the adjustable-height rear leg to the Curved end of the main bar, correctly align the
mounting holes, insert the bolts and tighten using the hex key.
Slide the seat onto the bar with the Cut out part towards the rear leg.
Put the main bar aside.
2.
Put the unit with the flywheel side facing downwards on top of the box. Check that
the Stainless Steel handled Locking pin on the side between the Flywheel and foot
position is in the “out” position.
Insert the main bar, straight end first, from the tapered end into the main frame. Make sure
it is properly aligned in between the guiding edges of the clearance adjustment rollers and
push through towards the foot stretcher side. Do this very carefully so the main bar does
not damage the inside of the main frame!
Lock the Main frame in position using the Locking pin in 2 above.
