Fitness Quest 1100 manual Set Up, Starting OUT

SET UP

Your product comes with:

•Safety Hitch Pin located at the bottom of the Vertical Column, which must be removed prior to unfolding.

•One (1) Spring Loaded Pin locked into the base of the left rail by the height adjustment tube. Left side is determined by standing behind the unit facing the Vertical Column.

IMPORTANT: To Prevent Injury – Be sure the spring-loaded pin is locked securely into place in the left rail before using unit. This will prevent the height adjustment column from falling forward.

•One Large Hitch Pin for Leg Pulley Bracket is located in the Leg Pulley Accessory Kit as well as two Large Hitch Pins for the Multi Function Attachment.

IMPORTANT: Before using the Multi Function Attachment or Leg Pulley Accessory be sure the Hitch Pins are securely inserted (see page 8, 9 & 11 of this manual for directions).

STARTING OUT

Wear athletic shoes and comfortable light clothing when exercising on the Total Gym 1100. Do not exercise barefoot. Check your exerciser before using to ensure that all the parts are in place and working properly (see page 12 & 13 for details on inspection, maintenance and storage).

Adult supervision is required at all times.

NOTE: The Rails and Glideboard can be raised to any desired level on the Height Adjustment Column depending upon your degree of fitness. Please note, however, that the Rails

cannot be raised to the highest position on the Height Adjustment Column when the

Leg Pulley Bracket is attached to the column.

Be sure you have plenty of free space around the exerciser so that performing on the Total Gym 1100, as well as getting on and off, is convenient and safe.

Each time you raise or lower the Adjustment Column, be sure you hold it to keep it from dropping to the floor.

1. Pull the product out of the shipping box. Remove all packaging materials, including tape and cardboard inserts, from your unit.

2. Lay product on the floor with glideboard side up. Make sure you have plenty of space on both ends of the product. Slide the glideboard as far as it will go towards the Front Crossbar before you begin lifting unit.

3. Lift the exerciser up by holding it at the top of the rails. Using your foot, slowly spread the unit open at the bottom approximately 12 inches so that it rests firmly on the Front and Back Crossbars not allowing it to go too far.

4. Make sure the handles are out to the sides before you begin to unfold your unit. Keep hands and fingers away from pulley. Hold onto the top center of glideboard and begin rolling rear rollers. Spread the unit out until it is flat on the floor. Be careful to do this slowly.

4.

Be sure to support the frame in the center to avoid having the product drop suddenly onto the floor or pinch fingers.

To The Ground

Begin using the product at a low incline. As your fitness level progresses, increase the incline to increase the intensity and improve your muscle strength. Don’t be in a hurry to exercise at a high intensity level; start out easily and build gradually. The Total Gym 1100 is as easy as 1-2-3

to use, so read on.

1.Important Things to Remember When Using the Total Gym 1100

•Always have control of the glideboard before getting on and off the exerciser.

•Keep your feet on the floor when getting on and off the exerciser. Only remove them from the floor for the duration of the exercise.

•If you are using the handles, hold onto them as you get on and off the glideboard.

2.Exercising with the Handles Only

Grasp the handles which are attached to the cable and slide the glideboard to a position in which you can comfortably sit or lay down when performing the desired exercise (see Exercise Booklet). Be sure to keep your feet on the floor until you are in the correct position for the specific exercise. Then, if the exercise calls for your feet to be off the floor, place your feet as specified in the instructions.

3.Exercising with the Multi Function Attachment Only

Slide the glideboard to a position in which you can comfortably sit or lay down on when performing the desired exercise (see your Exercise Booklet). Keep your feet on the ground until you are in the correct position and feel comfortable. Then, place your feet in the proper position and begin to exercise.

When starting your exercise program, begin with the basic exercises shown in the Exercise Booklet included with your Total Gym 1100 to familiarize yourself with the movements. Use the lowest incline level to start with –you can work up to a higher incline level in the weeks and months to come.
