USE GUIDELINES
Before starting:
1. Adjust the Nylon Safety Strap (32) length to appropriate length, to allow for the maximum angle you
want to invert. It is recommended to invert only to 20 or 30 degrees for the first few uses while
familiarizing with the inversion action and operation of the unit. To test correct length, slowly tip the unit
backwards before getting onto the product, and observe the maximum angle the strap is allowing the
backrest to go to. Increase or decrease the strap length as required to achieve the maximum desired
angle.
2. Ensure that the Inversion Table
is at the correct settings to match
your height. The Adjustable leg hold tube has body
height indication on the tube. Adjust the leg
tube so the users height is shown as the measurement
directly below where the leg hold tube connects into
the backrest support frame. Once correct height is
obtained, secure firmly with ball pin and height
adjustment knob. As each
individual’s body type is different,
you will need to find the correct
settings for your specific body type.
WARNING:
ALWAYS WEAR ATHLETIC SHOES WITH LACES TO SECURE YOUR FEET FOR FOOT
PROTECTION WHILE EXERCISING ON THE INVERSION SYSTEM.
ALWAYS MAKE SURE THAT THE LEG TUBE ADJUSTABLE KNOB IS SECURED SNUGLY AGAINST
YOUR ANKLES AND THAT THE LONG KNOB IS FULLY TIGHTENED BEFORE YOU USE THE
INVERSION SYSTEM.
NOTE: IT IS RECOMMENDED THAT SOMEONE BE WITH YOU DURING INVERSION, ALTHOUGH
THE INVERSION TABLE IS EASY TO USE. HAVING SOMEONE NEARBY PROVIDES EXTRA
SAETY AND SUPPORT.
SECURING FEET AND ANKLE
Step 1- Step 2- Step 3-
Expand the front rollers
outwards by pulling up on the
Leg Tube Adjustment Knob (24);
Slide Feet under Foam Rollers,
feet should be firmly on foot rest
plate
Contract the front rollers snugly
onto ankles and feet by releasing
the Leg Tube Adjustment Knob
and make sure it “Locks” into
place. Tighten Adjustment Knob.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
When settings are correct, the inversion machine is a delicately balanced machine. Slow
movement of the arms will assist the user in rotating the Machine to the desired angle of
inversion, and also to safely return to the upright position.
REMEMBER: do not quickly move arms. As the machine is sensitively balanced
this can cause fast rotation. Slow movement of the arms is all that is required to
change the angle of the machine at a controlled rate of speed.
START SLOWLY!
We recommend for the first time to invert only to 20 or 30 degrees. Spend no more than 5 minutes at any
one time in an inverted position. We recommend inverting for just a few minutes each time for the first
several weeks.
LISTEN TO YOUR BODY!
If you show signs of overdoing it such as headaches, dizziness, flushed fact or any discomfort in the
ankles, knees or hips, STOP IMMEDIATELY!
ANGLES OF INVERSION
-Beginners should start at 20 to 30 degrees. This will provide mild stretching and allow your body to get
used to being upside down.
-Once you feel comfortable, adjust the angle to 50 or 60 degrees. This allows full decompression of the
spine. It is not necessary or required for you to invert at more than 60 degrees. For maximum stretching,
invert to 90 degrees.
OSCILATION (refer to images below)
-Raise and lower your arms slowly, back and forth. This will rotate your body backwards (raised arms)
and bring your back up (lowered arms).
-Getting used to being upside down can take some time. Start out just a few minutes each day. After
your body is used to being upside down, feel free to invert two or three times a day.
-You can increase the angle and speed of rotation by using both arms.
If you have trouble getting back up, bend your knees and slide your bottom down towards your feet. If
the Inversion Table is in the full 90 degree inversion position, grab both handles of your Inversion Table
and pull forward.
-DO NOT TRY TO GETUP BY LIFTING YOUR HEAD!

11
MAINTENANCE
Your unit has been carefully designed to require minimum maintenance. To ensure this, we recommend
that you do the following:
- Keep your unit clean by wiping sweat, dust or other residue off with a soft, clean cloth after each use.
- Always make sure that the equipment is secure and show no signs of wear and tear.
- Regularly check the tightness of nuts and bolts.
- Please place on smooth hard floor.
- Recommended as the indoor item.

Warm up Exercises
A successful exercise program consists of a warm-up, aerobic exercise, and a cool-down. Do the entire
program at least two and preferably three times a week, resting for a day between workouts. After
several months, you can increase your workouts to four or five times per week.
Warming up is an important part of your workout, and should begin every session. It prepares your body
for more strenuous exercise by heating up and stretching out your muscles, increasing your circulation
and pulse rate, and delivering more oxygen to your muscles. At the end of your workout, repeat these
exercises to reduce sore muscle problems. We suggest the following warm-up and cool-down exercises:
Inner Thigh Stretch
Sit with the soles of your feet together with your
knees pointing outward. Pull your feet as close into
your groin as possible. Gently push your knees
towards the floor. Hold for 15 counts.
Hamstring Stretch
Sit with your right leg extended. Rest the sole of your
left foot against your right inner thigh. Stretch toward
your toe as far as possible. Hold for 15 counts. Relax
and then repeat with left leg extended.
Head Roll
Rotate your head to the right for one count, feeling
the stretch up the left side of your neck. Next, rotate
your head back for one count, stretching your chin to
the ceiling and letting your mouth open. Rotate your
head to the left for one count, and finally, drop your
head to your chest for one count.
Shoulder Lift
Lift your right shoulder up toward your ear for one
count. Then lift your left shoulder up for one count as
you lower your right shoulder.
Calf-Achilles Stretch
Lean against a wall with your left leg in front of the
right and your arms forward. Keep your right leg
straight and the left foot on the floor; then bend the
left leg and lean forward by moving your hips toward
the wall. Hold, and then repeat on the other side for
15 counts.

13
Toe Touch
Slowly bend forward from your waist, letting your
back and shoulders relax as you stretch toward your
toes. Reach down as far as you can and hold for 15
counts.
Side Stretch
Open your arms to the side and continue lifting them
until they are over your head. Reach your right arm
as far upward toward the ceiling as you can for one
count. Feel the stretch up your right side. Repeat this
action with your left arm.
