Important Safety Instructions
1. General Safety Warnings:
Always follow the directions on the
machine’s console for proper operation.
Close supervision is required when the
machine is used by, or near, children or
disabled persons.
Always use care when getting on and off
the machine.
Never reach into or under the machine,
or tip the machine on its side, while it is
in operation.
Use the machine only for the purposes
described in this user manual and only
with attachments or accessories that come
with the machine or which Power Plate
has specifically approved for use with the
machine.
2. Specific Safety Warnings
2.1 Proper Clothing and Padding
During exercises in which the user stands
on the vibration platform, the user should
wear rubber-soled shoes or, if the user
chooses to exercise in socks or bare feet,
the user should use the contoured mat
that is provided with the machine.
During exercises in which any part of the
user’s body is in contact with the vibration
platform, Power Plate recommends the
use of at least one contoured mat.
2.2 Proper Position and Balance
In order to avoid possible injury from
the machine’s vibrations, Power Plate
recommends the user not lean back on
his/her heels or “lock” his/her joints or
straighten his/her legs when standing
upright on the machine.
It is important at all times to maintain
balance while on the machine. The
user, should (unless the directions for a
particular exercise state otherwise) keep
his/her knees directly above the toes.
Proper position and balance are especially
important if the user employs weights
during any exercise on the machine. Power
Plate strongly recommends users not
employ weights while using the machine,
unless they are being coached by an
exercise professional or unless the user has
extensive experience with weight training
or with Power Plate.
The three pictures on the right
demonstrate proper and improper ways to
stand on the machine.
You always need to be balanced when
standing on Power Plate. Do not “lock” any
joints, such as your knees and elbows, but
keep them slightly bent.
Don’t place your weight close to the edge
of the platform as this may cause Power
Plate to become unstable.
When training with Power Plate, keep your
weight towards the center of the platform.
Also, balance your weight predominantly
on the front of your feet.
2.3 Proper Hydration
Power Plate recommends that the user
stay well-hydrated by drinking at least 300
ml (16 ounces) of water before, during, and
after each exercise session.
2.4 Proper Limitations on Exercise
Warning:
it is imperative the user pay
careful attention to his/her body’s reaction
to exercise on the machine and that the
user not over-exert himself/herself or work
to exhaustion, or personal injury could
result.
If, at any time, the user experiences
dizziness, faintness, shortness of breath,
or any pain, the user should immediately
stop exercising and consult a physician
before continuing with an exercise
program, or personal injury could result.
