Place the frame on the floor so that it faces upward and
fit the head of the rail carefully in its place. Support the
frame with one hand, set the fastening screws below the
rail on their places and tighten them with fingers. Tilt the
device in a horizontal position, open the footstraps and
pull them aside, revieling the two holes for fastening
screws. Place a screw and a sleeve on top of the allen key
wrench and set them carefully in place. Tighten all screws
with the allen key wrench and slip the footstraps back
under the metal hooks on the sides of the frame.

FRAME ASSEMBLY

SEAT ASSEMBLY

To mount the seat, use the four screws in the hardware kit
to fix the seat to the carriage on the rail. The edges of the
base plate should be inside the edges of the carriage.
N.B. The sticker on the bottom of the seat shows the
correct seat position.

ADJUSTING RESISTANCE

The rowing load can be stepplessly adjusted by the knob
(fig.). The lightest, or the base load, is in use when the
groove in the knob points to the mark on the frame. There
are four other load levels marked on the knob, the
heaviest, maximum load, being indicated by four grooves.
The load is freely adjustable between the base and
maximum load; the settings serve only as a guide.
In rowing machines with flywheel construction, stroke
speed is at highest at the end of the rowing stroke with the
body leaning slightly backwards and the arms flexed
against the chest. The flywheel speed is also at its highest
at this point. Stroke speed is at its lowest at the start of the
rowing stroke. If you row at a very low resistance at a fast
tempo, the flywheel will continue to rotate fast at the
beginning of the rowing motion, and there may be an idle
stroke. It is therefore recommended to use a higher
resistance when the rowing tempo is very fast.
METER
The meter switches on automatically when you start
rowing or press the RESET-key on the meter, and switches
off when you have not exercised or pressed the key for
about 4 minutes. You can reset the readings by pressing
the RESET key.
N.B. Protect the meter from direct sunlight, as it may
damage the liquid crystal display. Protect the meter
from water and avoid severe impacts, as these may
also damage the meter.

DISPLAYS

STROKES:
Counts rowed strokes upwards (0-9999).
TIME:
Shows time counted upwards (0:00-59:59).
STROKES/MIN:
Number of strokes per minute (0-999).
CALORIES:
Estimated total calorie consumption (0.0-999 kcal).
Because different people’s capacity to produce energy
(efficiency) varies, the energy consumption display shows
only a rough approximation of the real consumption. This
meter calculates the energy consumption on the basis of
fixed and measured values.
