ELECTRIC PARALLEL BARS INSTALLATION
ALL MODELS
1. Remove platform (item # 1, 46, 47 or 51) from crate using handles attached to mounting
brackets. Set the platform on firm level floor.
For 2-piece split platforms, set both pieces on side against a solid surface while installing
connecting plates (50). Align the 2 pieces and firmly hold together. Using screws (49),
install all connecting plates in recessed pockets. After all, connecting plates have been
installed, place platform on floor as directed in step 1.
2. Place the four upright columns (13) between the brackets on the platform according to
letter designations and tighten the mounting bolts (10) securely.
3. Install the hand rails (30, 44 or 45) onto the adjustment tubes (4) using spacer (31),
washers x2 (32), and lock nut (35); tighten the lock nut (35), sufficiently, to eliminate any
play but not so tight that they will not pivot when adjusting the width. When necessary,
adjust the width according to the operating instructions.
4. Remove the cover plate from box (23) to allow access to inside of control stand (20).
Using nuts (21), mount the control stand (20) to the platform, threading AC mains cable, 4
protective earth ground wires (green with yellow), and connector cables (36, 37 and 42)
through appropriate holes. Ensure all protective earth grounds are secured on the bolt pin
with paint removed.
5. With screws (26) and cover plate (24) removed, connect the controller (22) per the
following instructions.
WARNING: Read and understand this operator’s manual before
installing or using this equipment.

then beeps. Release buttons, beep stops.
•Press and HOLD the down ARROW key. All 4 columns should lower at a reduced speed.
Continue to hold the key until the columns reach their lowest point and, you hear an
audible click. Wait three seconds and display should show the current height.
SETTING THE PARALLEL BAR HEIGHT
•Press the up arrow to raise the parallel bars.
•Press the down arrow to lower the parallel bars.
•The current height of the bars appears (in inches) on the display.
SAVING THE MEMORY POSITIONS
This function makes it possible to save a predetermined height setting. Four different heights
may be saved. These saved positions can be used later.
•Adjust the bars to desired height by using the UP or Down arrow keys.
•Press the green memory key (S) and release. Press the desired memory key (1, 2, 3 or 4).
An audible click signals the position is now saved to that number.
