VENTUS 3 ASSEMBLY
The rower has been assembled and tested at the factory, so you shouldn’t have any
problems putting all the parts together. Components are designed to fit together, and
only basic tools are required for the assembly process. Inside the box you will find a Tools
Pack (Hex Allen Key, Spanner, Washers and Bolts). See previous page.
To assemble your JLL VENTUS 3 please follow these easy steps:
STEP 1
Start by removing the two square neck bolts (9),
arc washers (10), spring washers (11) and nuts (12)
in the mainframe (27) and use them to attach the
front stabiliser (6).
STEP 2
Next, remove the two cross pan head screws (31)
from the end of the slideway. Slide the saddle onto
the frame and reattach the screws.
Then attach the two limiters (34) on the underside
of the slideway using two bolts (35) from the tools
pack.
STEP 3
Split the rail cover (36/37) into two pieces by
removing the screw (25). Then attach it over the
end of the slideway and secure using the screw just
removed.
Fix the rear supporter (38) to the underside of the
slideway using four Allen head bolts (24), flat
washers (3) and spring washers (11).
STEP 4
Remove the bolts (24) and washers (10+11) from the
mainframe (27).
Split the guide rail cover (26L/R) apart by removing
the screws (25).
Attach the slideway to the mainframe using the bolts
and washers removed earlier and then secure the
guide rail covers over the top using the screws.

STEP 5
Remove the bolts (22) and washers (11+23) from the
mainframe (27).
Attach the pedal seats (30) to either side of the base
using these bolts, then add the pedals (29) on top
using two bolts (24) for either side.
STEP 6
Pull out the extension wire (16a) from the display
post (67) and connect it to the wire (15a) from the
monitor (15).
Return the wires back into the post and secure the
monitor to the post with the IP frame (105) in
between the two using the screws found in the back.
Lastly insert the power adapter into the front of the
machine and plug into a power socket.

16
STORING THE ROWING MACHINE
When not in use, you can save space by tilting the
machine upright.
MOVING THE MACHINE
There are a set of transport wheels on the front
stabiliser. Lift the rear stabiliser until the front wheels
touch the ground and roll to your desired location.
MONITOR ANGLE
You can adjust the angle of the monitor by pivoting
it up or down on the arm from the base. The angle
may need to be changed due to the users height or
the amount of light within a room reflecting off the
screen.
ADJUSTING THE PEDALS STRAPS
The length of the straps can be adjusted to suit the
users foot size. Use the red hoop at the end of the
strap to pull the velcro tighter across your foot until
you feel it is secure.
