Long Term Water Treatment:
Do not use any water treatment other than the tablets supplied with this machine.
For replacement tablets, contact your local First Degree Fitness distributor.
Water treatment schedules for the VX-PRO will vary according to the fluid tanks exposure
to sunlight, but expect 8-12 months near a bright, sunlit window and 2 years or more for a
darker location. At the point of finding the water slightly cloudy, add a Chlorine tablet.
Long Term Water Treatment and Basic Operation
Dyneema Cable Drive:
The Dyneema Cable Drive system allows for simplicity, smoothness and unparalleled
performance. The unique properties of Dyneema make it extremely useful in harsh envi-
ronments, such as sailing, climbing, fishing lines, body armor, etc. It is quite literally
stronger than steel. The 6mm Dyneema cable used on the VX-PRO is rated in excess of
1,000kg.
Note: If the Dyneema cable is twisted excessively, the rowing stroke will feel lumpy. Use
the rower handle to untwist the cable to its normal operating position.
Light fraying is normal. The Dyneema may have a slight “fuzzy” appearance after a peri-
od of use. Dyneema is extremely abrasion resistant and to some degree self-lubricating.
Expect many years of trouble free performance.
Frame Tension Cable:
The VX-PRO is fitted with a Frame Tension cable which provides improved frame rigidity.
The cable may on occasion require adjustment. For optimum performance, the cable
should be taut. If the cable becomes loose, first loosen the Retaining nut, retighten the
Frame Tension cable and then secure the Retaining nut.
Resistance:
The level of resistance is determined by the level indicator locat-
ed on the front of the tank. Level one indicates lightest re-
sistance, level sixteen represents heaviest resistance. Allow
three to four strokes after adjusting resistance handle to allow the
desired resistance level to be reached.
Vertical Storage:
The VX-PRO can easily be stored in a vertical, upright 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 upper rear of the
unit to avoid marring either the paint or Perspex cover.
It is recommended that a drop cloth be used under the fluid
tank whenever the tank is open for water treatment
CAUTION:
Important:
Do not fill past the calibration mark as indicated
on the tank level sticker or water spillage can occur. See
tank filling/water treatment page for details.
