Congratulations on becoming a WaterRower owner. 

Rowing is universally recognized as the perfect aerobic exercise − smooth, 

low impact, rhythmic and whole-body − unrivalled for its physiological 

benefits and aesthetic pleasures.

“Rowing, indoors or outdoors, at any exercise level of intensity, 

requires a greater exercise expenditure than any other aerobic 

activity. Calories are burned in relation to the number of muscles 

used and the intensity and duration of the exercise. Rowing with a 

sliding seat uses a very large muscle mass since the upper, lower 

and trunk muscles are used vigorously.”

-Dr. C Everett Koop- Former US Surgeon General 

While most rowing machines imitate the action of rowing, they do so 

mechanically, and therefore lack the natural dynamics experienced when a 

boat and crew glide down a river.

At WaterRower, we have focused on replicating the physical dynamics of 

rowing, with the knowledge that this will achieve all of its physiological 

benefits, as well as much of the aesthetic pleasure. 

To maximize the enjoyment from using your WaterRower we recommend 

that you follow our suggestions on rowing technique and training 

programs. We hope that some of the discussion points in this manual will 

improve your knowledge about exercise in general, so that you are better 

able to fulfill your specific exercise objectives.
Your WaterRower has been carefully hand-crafted to give you years of 

trouble-free use. You will notice that each WaterRower is unique due to 

the variance in color and grain that occurs naturally in genuine hardwood. 

Wee recommend that you closely follow the assembly details provided, 

particularly by assembling the machine in the correct sequence, and 

adhering to the suggested maintenance schedule.

We hope you enjoy using your WaterRower for many years to come.
