STEP
Install Locking Brackets
Serious injury or death may occur if the Inversion Rack is not
installed in the doorframe properly:
ALWAYS
securely install the
Locking Brackets in
SOLID WOOD
doorways built according to
U.S. national building codes (maximum width of 36 in/91.4 cm).
Maximum height allowance depends on the height of the doorway
and placement of the locking brackets. In a standard 6’8” (203.2 cm),
maximum user height is 7’3” (221 cm).
• Locate the Mounting Hardware Kit (E11059).
• To allow installation of the equipment without interfering with the
operation of the door, mount the Locking Brackets on the side of the
doorframe opposite from the hinged door (Figure 10). With a pencil,
mark 2 in (5 cm) down from the top of the doorframe.
• There are two sizes of Locking Brackets, one to fit the Large Straight
Bar with Grips and one to fit the Small Straight Bar. Facing the door,
mount the Large Locking Bracket (A) on your
RIGHT
and the Small
Locking Bracket (B) on your
LEFT
(Figure 10).
• On the
RIGHT
side of the doorframe, place the Large Locking Bracket
with the plastic rotating lock open and on top against the doorstop
edge. Align the top of the Locking Bracket with the pencil mark so
there is a 2 in (5 cm) clearance between the Locking Bracket and top
of the doorframe (Figure 11).
NOTE:
If you find use of the Inversion Rack difficult at this height, you
may lower the Rack as long as the top bar height exceeds the height
of the tallest user in the household.
• With a pencil, mark the doorframe through the three (3) screw holes
in the bracket. Set the bracket aside and pre-drill 5/32 inch (3.9 mm)
diameter holes where you marked the doorframe, at least 2 inches
(5 cm) deep (Figure 11).
• Mount the bracket using three (3) wood screws provided, ensuring
that the screws fully engage in the doorframe. Screws must be tight
and flush with the bracket. Use ONLY the screws provided -
DO NOT
substitute with any other screws.
• Following the same procedure as above, install the Small Locking
Bracket on the
LEFT
side, with the same distance from the top of the
doorframe as the Large Locking Bracket.
