6. FORMULAS & PARAMETERS
1. SPM: pulling frequency per minute (time of one pulling).
2. TIME/500 (min: sec) = 500M/(SPM*DIST) unit is minute.
3. WATT, CALORIES, DISTANCE calculations as CONCEPT II.
4. Induction method as below:
a. Double SENSOR mode: Two RPM input: power on, the sensor which first receive RPM is A
and the other is B. Induction calculation way: ABBA is one time.
b. Signal SENSOR mode: Use the magnetic speed to judge the induction times. Method of
SENSOR induction: slow-quick-slow is one time.
7. ADDING WATER & REMOVING WATER
Adding water:
1. Take off the plug of water tank’s left side.
2. Place a water bucket next to the rowing machine, then put the hard tube of siphon into the bucket and the
hose into the water tank. Please close the valve on the top of the siphon when pouring water into the tank.
3. Press the siphon to pour 17L water into the tank (DO NOT exceed the water line).
4. When pouring to the proper level, please open the valve on the top of the siphon to let extra water flow out.
5. Please make sure the plug is closed after pouring water.
6. Siphon using technique: place the bucket higher than water tank then the water automatically flows into
water tank. (Place a cloth under the water tank when pouring water in case wet the floor.)
Removing water:
1. Take off the plug of water tank’s left side.
2. Put the hard tube of siphon into the water tank and the hose into bucket.

15
3. Start to pour off the water (as the method of pouring in).
8. ADJUST THE ROWING MACHINE
Please adjust the food pad on the floor when the machine is not steady.
5.WATER CARE INSTRUCTIONS
How to keep the water clean or clear:
- Rinse the tank and get out as much of the dirty water before refilling with clean water.
- Use bottled or distilled water rather than tap water.
- Add one purification tablet when you refill with clean water. Please note adding purification tablets to
already cloudy water will not help to clear up the water.
- Store the water tank away from direct sunlight, if possible. This is to prevent algae growth.
How often do you need to add purification tablets?
It is recommended to add one tablet into your tank every 6 months. If your rower is in direct sunlight, it is
recommended to add every 3-4 months.
Algae Growth
If your tank is not regularly maintained, algae growth will occur.
To clean algae you should empty as much of the infested water as you can and refill the tank with clean
water. Add about ¼ cup of algae cleaner solution into the tank and give a few rows to mix the solution.
Once the tank is clear, you can add a purification tablet.

6.EXERCISE GUIDE
PLEASE NOTE: Before beginning any exercise program, consult your physician. This is important
especially if you are over the age of 45 or individuals with pre-existing health problems.
The pulse sensors are not medical devices. Various factors, including the user’s movement, may affect
the accuracy of heart rate readings. The pulse sensors are intended only as an exercise aid in
determining heart rate trends in general.
Exercising is great way to control your weight, improving your fitness and reduce the effect of aging and stress.
The key to success is to make exercise a regular and enjoyable part of your everyday life.
The condition of your heart and lungs and how efficient they are in delivering oxygen via your blood to your
muscles is an important factor to your fitness. Your muscles use this oxygen to provide enough energy for daily
activity. This is called aerobic activity. When you are fit, your heart will not have to work so hard. It will pump a lot
fewer times per minute, reducing the wear and tear of your heart.
So, as you can see, the fitter you are, the healthier and greater you will feel.
Warm-up
Start each workout with 5 to 10 minutes of stretching and some light exercises. A proper warm-up increases
your body temperature, heart rate and circulation in preparation for exercise. Ease into your exercise.

17
Training Zone Exercise
After warming up, increase the intensity to your desired exercise program. Be sure to maintain your intensity for
maximum performance. Breathe regularly and deeply as you exercise.
Cool Down
Finish each workout with a light jog or walk for at least 1 minute. Then complete 5 to 10 minutes of stretching to
cool down. This will increase the flexibility of your muscles and will help prevent post-exercise problems.
Workout Guidelines
TARGET ZONE
This is how your pulse should behave during general fitness exercise. Remember to warm up
and cool down for a few minutes.
