How To Use The Rower
HOW TO MOVE THE ROWER
Stand behind the rower and li the rear stabiliser until the rower will roll on the wheels.
Then, carefully move the rower to the desired location, and lower it to the floor.
HOW TO ROW ON THE ROWER
Sit on the seat, place your feet in the pedals, and adjust the straps to fit your feet. Hold the
row bar with an overhand grip.
Correct rowing form consists of three phases:
1. The first phase is the CATCH. Slide the seat forward until your knees are almost
touching your chest. Pull the row bar until your hands are above your feet.
2. The second phase is the DRIVE. Push backward with your legs. Lean back slightly at
the hips (not at the waist), keeping your back straight. As you straighten your legs,
pull the row bar toward your chest. Keep your elbows outward.
3. The third phase is the FINISH. Your legs should be nearly straight. Continue to pull the
row bar until your hands are even with your chest.
Aer the finish phase, extend your arms forward and pull the seat forward using your
legs. Repeat this sequence, moving through all three phases with a smooth, fluid motion.
Remember to breathe normally as you row; never hold your breath.
HOW TO ADJUST THE TENSION
To vary the intensity of your exercise, you can adjust the resistance that you feel when you
pull the row bar.
To increase the resistance, turn the resistance control clockwise; to decrease the
resistance, turn the resistance control counterclockwise. IMPORTANT: To avoid damaging
the resistance control, stop turning it when turning becomes difficult.

FEATURES OF THE CONSOLE
The easy-to-use console features several display modes that provide instant exercise
feedback during your workouts. The display modes are described below.
Strokes/Min.—This shows the number of rowing strokes you are completing per minute.
Calories—This mode shows the approximate number of calories you have burned during
your workout.
Total Strokes—This mode shows the total number of rowing strokes you have completed
since the console was last reset.
NOTE: To reset the console, remove the batteries from the console and then reinsert
them.
Time—This mode shows the elapsed time.
Scan—This mode shows the time, distance, strokes, total strokes, calories, and strokes
per minute modes, for a few seconds each, in a repeating cycle.
Strokes—This mode shows the number of rowing strokes you have completed during
your workout.
Distance—This mode will take turns to show kilometres(KM) and nautical miles(NM)
every 5-6 seconds.
HOW TO USE THE CONSOLE
Make sure that batteries are installed in the console. If there is a sheet of clear plastic on
the console, remove the plastic.
1. To turn on the console, press the Mode button on the console or simply begin rowing.
2. Select one of the display modes.
Scan mode—To select the scan mode, press the Mode button repeatedly until an arrow
appears next to the Scan label.
Strokes per minute, calories, total strokes, time, or strokes—To select one of these
modes for continuous display, press the Mode button repeatedly until an arrow appears
next to the label for the desired mode. Make sure that an arrow does not appear next to
the Scan label.

3. Begin rowing and follow your progress with the display. As you exercise, the console
will display the mode that you select. To reset the display to zero, press and hold the
Mode button for several seconds.
4. When you are finished exercising, the console will turn off automatically. If the row bar
does not move for a few seconds, the console will pause. The console has an auto-off
feature. If the row bar does not move and the Mode button is not pressed for a few
minutes, the power will turn off automatically to save the batteries.
HOW TO FOLD AND STORE THE ROWER
The rower can be stored in a folded position to conserve space. Store the rower in a
location where children cannot tip it. Remove the batteries from the console when storing
the rower for extended periods of time.
To store the rower, remove the Frame Knob (87) and the M13x32mm Washer (88). Next,
remove the Frame Pin (37). Keep the Frame Knob and the Washer in a place where they
will not become lost.
Raise the Rail (8) to the vertical position. Then, fully insert the Frame Pin (37) into the Rail
Bracket (41) so that it holds the Rail in place.
HOW TO UNFOLD THE ROWER
Remove the Frame Pin (37), and lower the Rail (8) to the floor. Next, insert the Frame Pin
into the Frame (39) and into the Rail Bracket (41). Then, tighten the Frame Knob (87) and
the M13x32mm Washer (88) into the Frame and into the Rail Bracket.

Maintenance
MAINTENANCE
Inspect and tighten all parts of the rower regularly. Replace any worn parts immediately.
To clean the rower, use a damp cloth and a small amount of mild detergent.
WARNING: To avoid damage to the console, keep liquids away from the console and
keep the console out of direct sunlight.
HOW TO GREASE THE PEDAL AXLE
If the pedals squeak when you use the rower. Remove the Right and Le Pedals (30, 57),
and apply a small amount of grease to both sides of the Pedal Axle (58). Then, reattach the
Pedals.
HOW TO GREASE THE ROLLERS
If the rollers beneath the seat squeak when you use the rower, apply a small amount of
grease to a paper towel, and spread a thin layer evenly along the rail where the rollers
move. Then, wipe off any excess grease.
