7. Pivot the footbar slightly until the large hole at the bottom
of the footbar aligns with the remaining hole in the trunnion
plate.
8. Slide the shoulder bolt with one washer through the large
footbar hole. Then screw the shoulder bolt into the trunnion
plate as tightly as possible with the large allen wrench. Repeat
on the other side. See Figure E.
INSTALL THE RISERS
9. Remove locking pins from the
frame. Insert the risers
through the holes on the top
of the frame. Turn the risers
until the attached pulleys point
straight down the frame toward
the footbar. See Figure F.
10. Reinsert locking pins until the
metal ring touches the frame.
You may need to jiggle or
slightly lift or rotate the riser
to get the locking pins in all
the way.
ATTACH THE ROPES
11. To attach the ropes, first engage at least one spring from
the carriage to the frame to keep the carriage in the home
position. Unroll the ropes and separate them.
12. The Allegro CC now comes with Soft Touch Ropes that do not
have the dog-clips to attach the loops. The clip will no longer
drag on or bang into the frame! Follow the images below to
install your loops. See Figure G.
13. Rest the loops over the shoulder rests. Thread the other end of
each rope through a riser pulley and back into the cam cleats
on the carriage to adjust the length. Be sure to go through the
chrome eyestraps on both sides of the cam cleats. Always push
the rope firmly down into the cleats to ensure a good grip.
STORING THE ALLEGRO CC REFORMER
Stacking
To see a demonstration of how to stack the Allegro CC, watch the
Setup and Safety portion of the Allegro CC Introductory/Level 1
DVD. Attach the springs to keep the carriage from moving. Move
the footbar to the “down” position. Remove the shoulder rests
and store in the slots at the head of the frame. Put the head rest
down. Remove the risers and store in the holes on the sides of
the frame. Place the ropes and loops inside the Allegro CC frame
not on the carriage. Alternate the orientation of the Allegro CC‘s
as you stack them. Place the head end feet onto the standing
platform of the Allegro CC below, and so on. Stack a maximum
of 5 reformers with no legs (3 with legs). Do not stack Reformer
with Towers.
Standing
It is absolutely critical that the
Allegro CC footbar be set and
locked in the correct position
for standing storage. Move
and lock the footbar into the
position closest to the foot-end
of the Reformer frame. Raise
the footbar to its highest
position. Lift the head-end of
the Allegro CC frame to waist
height. Then raise the frame to
vertical. Use your foot to steady
the wheeled end of the frame
as you lift to vertical. The
vertical Allegro CC will come
to rest on the footbar and the
transport wheels.
