neutral detergent. Do not use thinner, alcohol, or similar liquids. They will damage the
surface of the device.
- Do not use this test if you have arm, shoulder or spine pain, or high, uncontrolled blood
pressure.
- Use the proper technique as described below for accurate and consistent results. If
needed, ask for a demonstration.
- Adjust the chain length for the subject to test comfortably.

- Make a maximal pull. Avoid sudden thrusts or jars, which can make the reading
inaccurate.
- When Pulling, breathe out or exhale during contraction to prevent high intrathoracic
pressure. Do not hold your breath and strain.
- Measure three tries, and take the best score. Record test results in kilograms.
OPERATING INSTRUCTION :
1. Have the subject stand with both feet on the base, straddling the Body.
2. Adjust the length of the chain for the lift desired(see illustration). Be sure to hang the
extra length of chain behind the Body. This insures that it does not interfere with the
movement of the Pointer during the trial.
(1) Arm Lift
(2) Torso Lift
(3) Leg Lift
(4) High Far Lift
(5) Floor Lift
(6) High Near Lift
3. Have the subject hold the Grip in a comfortable, relaxed fashion. The knees should not
be bent.
Do not distract the subject during a trial.
4. Have the subject exert a maximal vertical lift effort by pulling upward gradually, not
abruptly.
5. The force generated will be indicated by the Pointer on the Dial on the face of the
Dynamometer.
6. Three trials are recommended at each lift setting. Reset the Pointer between trials by
gently moving the Pointer back to the zero position on the Dial. Do not move the
Pointer while the trial is in progress.
