THE HANDLEBARS
For added convenience, and safety, a set of
HANDLEBARS
has been added to the
INVERSION TABLE.
These
HANDLEBARS
are located at the top of the
REAR FRAME(2).
The
HANDLEBARS
are to help you
return to the upright position from any degree of inversion. If you wish to return to the upright position, and
the bed is moving too slowly, or not moving at all, simply grab the
HANDLEBARS
and pull on them until
you return to the upright position.
HEIGHT ADJUSTMENT
The
INVERSION TABLE
is a very sensitive balance device. It responds to very slight changes in weight
distribution. It is very important to make sure that the height adjustment is set properly. Use the following
procedure to set the height adjustment and balance the
INVERSION TABLE.

The
INVERSION TABLE
should return to the upright position when your hands are below your
waist. If it does not, use a taller setting.
Verify that adequate head clearance is available between the user's head and the floor before
using this inversion table. This is especially important for tall users.

GENERAL PRECAUTIONS
Use the lowest holes in the
PIVOT ARMS(5)
until you become familiar with the
INVERSION TABLE.
Do not use the
INVERSION TABLE
alone. Always have a helper available in case assistance is needed
in recovering from the decline position.
Make sure that the
HEEL HOLDERS(11)
are holding your feet securely.
Make sure that the
HEIGHT ADJUSTMENT BEAM(6)
is properly set for your height.
Make sure that the
HEIGHT ADJUSTMENT BEAM(6)
is held securely by both the
LARGE SPRING
PIN(16)
and the
LOCKING KNOB(17).
Make sure that there is enough room for the bed to rotate completely.

Adjust the
NYLON STRAPS
to restrict
movement to approximately 15 degrees
beyond the horizontal position. The nylon
straps
should not allow the
INVERSION
TABLE
to go into the full inversion position
while you are setting the height adjustment.
Loosen the
LOCKING KNOB(17)
under the
MAIN FRAME(4).
Pull the
LARGE SPRING PIN(16)
and use
the
SCALE DECAL(14)
to set the
HEIGHT
ADJUSTMENT BEAM(6).
Tighten the
LOCKING KNOB(17).
Mount the machine.
Lock your ankles into the
HEEL HOLDERS
(11).
Lie back with your hands at your sides.
Slowly raise your hands to your chest.
If your feet are higher than your head,
dismount and try a taller setting. If you do not
rotate to a position close to level, dismount
and try a shorter setting.
