How to Adjust the Height of Slide-Adjust Parallel Bars
Assembly Instructions
***We suggest having an assistant help you as you
adjust the height of the Slide-Adjust Parallel Bars.***
1. a.) Loosen Knob Bolt (#14A) by turning it counter-clockwise (about 6 turns) so that Foam Roller
Tube (#12) and Foam Roller (#33) are loosened slightly (they will be able to move slightly left and right).
2. a.) Use one hand for support on one VKR Handle Bar (#08) to prevent sudden sliding and another hand
to remove the corresponding Pop-Pin (#24). Repeat this process on the other VKR Handle Bar (#08) and
corresponding Pop-Pin (#24).
b.) Adjust by sliding up or down the left/right VKR Handle Bars (#08), Foam Roller Tube (#12), and Foam
Roller (#33) to the set of two corresponding holes at the new height setting you wish to use.
***FOR YOUR SAFETY, always ensure both right VKR Handle Bar (#08) and left VKR Handle
Bar (#08) are set on matching height hole settings to ensure parallel bars.
3. a.) Re-insert the two Pop Pins (#24) in through VKR Handle Bars (#08) to the new height setting,
making sure you engage the same corresponding height set of holes.
b.) Tighten Knob Bolt (#14A) by turning it clockwise to secure the configuration. Test that the VKR Handle
Bars (#08) and Foam Roller Tube (#12) with Foam Roller (#33) are sturdy and secure before using them.
