This section explains how to rotate backward on the inversion table, and return to the starting position. Always
exercise with a partner who is ready to assist you.
See the ADJUSTMENT section starting on page 11 to
identify parts referred to in this section.
ROTATING ON THE INVERSION TABLE
SETTING UP AND USING THE INVERSION TABLE
Before using the inversion table, adjust the Pivot Bars
(23), the Adjustment Leg (3), and the Cain (17) to the
correct settings for you. Secure your ankles in the
Ankle Lock (16).
ROTATING BACKWARD ON THE INVERSION
TABLE
To rotate backward on the inversion table, slowly lift
your arms over your head until you reach the desired
position. The speed at which you lift your arms will
determine how quickly the inversion table will rotate.
Rest your arms in a comfortable position without caus-
ing the inversion table to rotate.
To lock the backrest in the fully inverted position, it
may be necessary to push against the floor or the
Rear Frame (6) for the last few degrees, so that the
Backrest Frame (1) rests against the crossbar on the
Front Frame (5). The weight of the body will then lock
the inversion table in the fully inverted position.
ROTATING UPWARD ON THE INVERSION TABLE
To return to the starting position, bend your knees
slightly and slowly move your hands toward your waist
until you rotate to a horizontal position. Rest in a hori-
zontal position for 30 to 60 seconds before rotating to
the starting position. This will allow your body to re-
adjust. Return to the starting position slowly. Dizziness
after using the inversion table is an indication that you
have returned to the starting position too quickly.
To rotate upward from the fully inverted position, hold
the corner of the Backrest Frame (1) behind your head
with one hand and the bottom of the Rear Frame (6)
with the other hand. Pull the Backrest Frame toward
the Rear Frame. This will release the Backrest Frame
from the fully inverted position. Rotate upward as
described above.
Do not try to sit up or use the Left and Right
Handlebars (9, 21) to return to the starting posi-
tion.
