Assembly Instructions
Installation of Brackets:
•
Important:
There are two sizes of Locking Brackets, one to fit the large
diameter tube (with blue hand grips) and one to fit the small diameter tube (with
red warning label). The Locking Brackets should mount on the door frame
opposite from the hinged door, to allow use of the equipment without interfer-
ing with operation of the door.
• Install the first bracket as shown in
Figure 1
. Place the Locking Bracket
against the doorstop edge, and 2” (5 cm) or more down from the top of the
door frame.
CAUTION: Make sure the plastic rotating lock is on top.
• Mark and then drill three 5/32” (3.9 mm) diameter holes and drill at least 2”
(5cm) deep into the door frame.
• Mount the Locking Bracket using the three wood screws provided. YOU
MUST USE THE SCREWS PROVIDED—DO NOT SUBSTITUTE WITH
OTHER LENGTH SCREWS. Screws must fully engage the door frame. (To
make the installation easier, rub bar soap on the screw threads.)
• Install the second Locking Bracket on the opposite side of the door frame at
the same height as the first Locking Bracket. After both Locking Brackets are
installed, extend your Inversion Bar out to the width of the door frame and
hook the flared tube ends into the u-shaped receiver in each Locking Bracket.
• Lock the Inversion Bar into the Locking Brackets by snapping the plastic
rotating lock over the top of the bar.
See Figure 2
.
IMPORTANT:
Always
check to make sure the tubes are securely locked in place before hanging on
the bar.
Failure to do so could cause serious injury or death!
FAILURE TO PROPERLY INSTALL THE INVERSION BAR
COULD RESULT IN SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH.
TO TEST BAR INSTALLATION:
After installing the Locking Brackets and securing the Inversion Bar in place,
two people should hang by their hands from one end of the bar.
While hanging, bounce up and down several times. Next, both people should hang
from the other end of the bar and repeat the test.
IF THE DOOR FRAME IS UNSTABLE OR WEAK, DO NOT CONTINUE
USE OF THE BAR IN THAT DOOR FRAME.
CAUTION: ONLY ONE PERSON AT A TIME SHOULD USE THE INVERSION BAR FOR
INVERSION. DO NOT ALLOW CHILDREN TO USE UNSUPERVISED.
