INTRODUCTION
The 10 Pad Lean Machine has been specifica y designed to tone and firm your musc es by e ec-
tronica y stimu ating them to contract, whi e you simp y ie back and re ax. These Musc e toners
can be used to he p in the recovery of musc es injured whi e p aying sport, to re ieve musc e ten-
sion and to tighten and firm specific musc e areas, e.g. f abby or weak stomach musc es, buttocks
area, upper thighs etc.
Musc e toning, or faradic treatments, has been extreme y successfu and very popu ar throughout
beauty sa ons and sports injury c inics for a number of years. ‘Faradism’ is the common name
given to this treatment due to the type of current used, which causes the musc es to invo untari y
contract. The interruption of the current then re axes the musc e, and prevents musc e fatigue.
The contraction and re axation of the musc es increases the b ood and ymph circu ation which
feeds and nourishes the ce s and aids the remova of waste products from the tissues.

NOT IMMERS IN WATER.
7. S ip the pads under the straps in the area to be treated.
8. Switch the machine to owest setting and the monitor ight wi come on.
9. Gradua y turn the dia s up as you become used to the sensations unti you are ab e to see
and fee a muscu ar contraction. Settings may vary depending on the sensitivity of the
area being treated.
10. When you are ab e to fee arrhythmic musc e movement re ax, and put your timer c ock
on for 30-40 minutes. N.B. If you fee an unp easant ting in under any of the pads, they
may be too dry or p aced incorrect y. If in doubt switch OFF your unit and start from the
beginning.
11. At the end of treatment switch OFF/ON your Lean Machine.
IMPORTANT: SOFT START FACILITY
Your Lean Machine is fitted wit a ‘Soft Start’, it wi not operate un ess a the output contro s
are c icked to 0 before you switch the machine on as shown by a constant red ight. When the
output contro s are set to 0, switch to the ON position. The pu se monitor wi now show a
green ight at intermittent interva s, according to the pu se ength setting.
TREATMENT
As you become accustomed to your machine, adjust the contro s to provide maximum comfort
and efficiency. Turn the output contro s on, then gradua y advance them unti you fee an in-
termittent ting ing sensation (these settings wi vary with different peop e and different musc e
groups). S ow y advance the output contro settings a itt e at a time unti you fee a rhythmic
musc e movement. At approximate y 5 minute interva s, you can s ight y increase the settings,
thus increasing the strength of the impu se to maintain a strong but comfortab e contraction.
These settings wi vary from person to person and you do not need to go beyond the setting
that is comfortab e for you. You shou d fee a regu ar contracting and re axing of the musc es
being exercised. Do not be a armed by the sensation of the invo untary contractions. Most peo-
p e find this movement strange at first but you wi soon become used to it.
A correct contraction occurs when the initia ting ing sensation essens and a good movement
of the musc e is seen and fe t. If a proper contraction is not experienced, or a pair of pads are
not working proper y (i.e. fee ing uncomfortab e or the musc es beneath are not contracting)
turn the machine off by setting a of the contro s to the OFF/O position. Then, making sure the
skin underneath is free from grease, reposition the pads s ight y, then gradua y turn up the
contro s.

When you are comfortab e, just re ax and shape up with the Digita Lean Machine.
Your treatment wi range from 10 minutes – 45 minutes depending on which specific programs
you wi be using.
If at any time during your treatment, you need to adjust or re-position a pad, a ways turn the
machine off first. After severa weeks of dai y use, the musc es treated wi have toned up.
Continued regu ar use of the Digita Lean Machine for once or twice a week wi maintain their
condition.
At the end of each treatment, switch the unit off and make sure the mains adapter is removed
from the mains socket.
N.B. A ways ensure that the skin is abso ute y c ean before treatment. To re-app y stickiness to
the pads p ease add a few drops of water to their surface.
Never immerse the unit (or ny of its p rts) in w ter.

vo untari y. Just imagine – whi e you re ax, read, watch the te evision you can achieve the
same visua effects as a strenuous work-out. You may even experience some next-day sore-
ness. Passive exercise is not new. For more that 30 years it has been used in both the medi-
