DRAINING/ CHANGING TANK WATER
1. Set resistance adjuster to 1.
2. Row at least 10 strokes to fill storage reservoir as much as possible.
3. Remove tank plug.
4. Insert rigid end of the siphon into the tank, and flexible hose into a bucket.
5. Drain the water.
To refill refer to the tank filling section of this manual (step 9, page 18).
LONG-TERM WATER TREATMENT
The amount of time between water treatments can vary greatly depending on your unit’s location and exposure
to sunlight. Typically, you can expect to treat your tank water every 12-24 months. If water becomes discoloured
or shows signs of algae/bacterial growth simply add one Water Treatment Tablet.
Please consult your nearest regional distributor to arrange the purchase of further treatment tablets or visit
www.firstdegreefitness.com/support
for further advice and assistance.
VERTICAL STORAGE
Your rower can easily be stored in a vertical position. For safety, choose a suitable location, such as a corner of a
room. It is recommended that something soft (such as carpet or a small towel) be placed under the rowing pulley
of the unit to avoid chipping or floor damage.
DO NOT USE ANY OTHER WATER TREATMENT TABLET OTHER THAN THOSE SUPPLIED WITH YOUR UNIT.
WARNING

APPROXIMATELY 40% OF THE TANK WATER WILL REMAIN. IT IS IMPOSSIBLE TO COMPLETELY DRAIN THE TANK
WITHOUT DISASSEMBLY.
NOTE:
THE VALVE ON TOP OF THE SIPHON MUST BE CLOSED TO ALLOW PROPER DRAINAGE.
