BEFORE STARTING: If your Allegro has a serial number less than
36395, your Reformer frame will be different than the images
included here. Please follow these steps:
»Follow step one as shown in standard instructions .
»Support the Reformer frame in the middle so that the foot
end of the frame is off the ground.
»Your frame will have one screw on each side of the frame
and four on the end holding the foot end extrusion in place.
Remove these screws and then remove the foot end of the
Reformer frame. If you have legs on your Reformer the two
screws for each foot end leg will have to be removed first.
»Replace the trunnion(s) (See step 5).
»Re-assemble your frame, being sure to replace all of the parts
where they came from.
FOR ALLEGRO REFORMERS WITH SERIAL #
ABOVE 36395
1. Using the included tools, remove the twist lock plunger and
the shoulder bolt and washer from each side of the footbar.
See Figure A. When you remove the second shoulder bolt
the footbar will be free to drop, so have a firm grasp on the
footbar. With each hand, squeeze the footbar plunger levers
and lift the footbar off the trunnions. Set all the parts you
removed aside to be re-installed later.
2. Remove the transport wheel brackets and wheels by removing
the single screw on each bracket. See Figure B. Set the screws
and washers aside to be re-installed later.

3. Remove the frame rail end caps. See Figure C.
4. Slide the existing trunnions out of the frame rails.
See Figure C.
5. Slide the new trunnion(s) into the frame rails, making sure
they are oriented the same way the old ones were. Refer back
to Figure C for proper orientation.
6. Re-install the rail end caps removed in step 3.
7. Re-install the transport wheel brackets and wheels.
See Figure D.
For steps 8-11 please refer to Figure E for proper orientation
8. Align the big hole in the trunnion with one of the footbar
position holes in the frame rail. Re-install the twist lock
plunger into that large hole in the trunnion and tighten
with the wrench. Make sure both trunnions are in the same
horizontal position on the frame.
9. Pick up the footbar and position it so the seam of the cover is
facing away from the carriage.
10. Squeeze the plunger levers and lower the footbar over the
trunnions and release the plunger levers when the pins line up
with the highest position on the trunnion plates.
11. Re-install the shoulder bolts (each with one washer) through
the footbar and into the trunnions. Tighten with the Allen
wrench.
