VENTUS PRO 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

main base using four Allen head bolts found in the
frame.
STEP 2
Attach the rear stabiliser to the base using four
screws found in the frame.
STEP 3
Attach the front stabiliser to the slideway using the
six Allen head bolts found in the stabiliser. Two of
these bolts will also be secured with a small hex nut.
Make sure when attached the slideway the plastic
cap on the stabiliser is lifted.
STEP 4

your machine. JLL®representatives are available to answer any questions that you may
have on +44 (0)800 6123 988.
PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE ACTIVITIES

preventive maintenance to ensure normal operation of the unit. Keep a log of all
maintenance actions to assist in staying current with all preventive maintenance
activities. JLL®is not responsible for performing regular inspection or maintenance.
Read all instructions and warnings listed both in this chapter and in the
Safety
chapter. Contact JLL®Customer Service on +44 (0)800 6123 988 for any
maintenance or service concerns.
Requirements:
• Water
• Dry cloth
• Vacuum
1. Only use water to clean and dust. Do not use any cleaning product because they
may damage the rower.
2. Be careful not to spill or get excessive moisture between the edge of the
display panel, as this might create an electrical hazard or cause failure of the
electronics.
3. Direct spraying could cause damage to the electronics and may void the
warranty.
WARNING

19
Depending on where the rowing machine is placed, you may experience dry air,
causing a common experience of static electricity. You can notice that by walking
across a carpet and then touching a metal object. On your rower you may
experience a shock due to the build-up of static electricity on your body and the
discharge path of the rower. If you experience this type of situation, you may want to
increase the humidity to a comfortable level through the use of a humidifier.
Check your machine regularly for rust. If rust starts to appear on the screws it means
the item is not housed in the correct environment and will need to be moved to a more
suitable room. Any rust will indicate there may be moisture in the air and as a result this
could impact on the integrity and performance of your machine.
1. Use only JLL®replacement parts.
2. Keep water and liquids away from electrical parts.
3. If you allow your machine to become rusty, this will affect your warranty.
ROWER CLEANING
Keep the slideway free of dust and debris for smooth running and preventing
injuries. Debris may cause damage to the rollers underneath the saddle.
After every workout use a neat, dry cloth for cleaning the machine and the handlebars
to prevent the unit of corrosion. Wipe away any sweat that may have dripped. Avoid
scratching the display by using a soft cloth.
Do not use abrasive or chemical cleaning agents.
WARNING
3 EASY STEPS TO CLEAN YOUR ROWING MACHINE
Recommendation (these are just a guideline):
• Use a clean cloth to wipe down the whole machine.
• Vacuum or sweep the floor underneath and around the rower to prevent any dust
going into the machine. A treadmill mat can help to reduce dust.
• Use a vacuum cleaner or a soft damp cloth to clean machines entire cover area.
When not using product for an extended period of time the product should be
folded and stored in a suitable environment.
