caution sticker and concave indentations facing wooden
standingplatform [4].
2. Insert pulleybars [23]into receptacles [34]at rear of
Reformerand tighten star knobs at base of receptacles.
Ensureeyehooks on top of pulleybars are parallel to aluminum
rails [15]and that star knobs are fully tightened so there is no
movement of the pulleybars.
3. With two people, tilt Reformer onto one side.
As one person steadies Reformer, the second person inserts
free ends of ropes [22] through back of pulleys [25], then
through rope guide tubes [27] underneath carriage.
4. Tie a knot leaving a 6-8" tail to prevent ropes from passing
back through rope guide tubes.
5. Return Reformer to upright position. 6. Position shoulder rests directly over pre-drilled screw holes.
ASSEMBLY & SET-UP

7. Ensure shoulder rest handles are positioned to the outside of
the shoulder rest frames.
8. Place 1/4" black washers over the shoulder rests screw
holeslots.
9. Insert 1/4" x 1-1/4" screws through washers and into top of
screw holes.
10. Use the 1/8" Allen key provided to tighten, ensuring the
shoulder rests are secure.
11. To determine correct length of ropes, set carriage stopper in
second hole from footbar. Engage a spring [6] into the gearbar [5]
ensuring carriage [16]does not move.
12. Place double loop straps [19]on carriage so D-rings on straps

Setting Up the Reformer
Carriage Stopper
The carriage stopper position determines how close the carriage
slides in toward the wooden standing platform and dictates the
range of motion required of the body’s joints. The hole closest
tothe wooden standing platform is referred to as position #1;
thenext hole is position #2, etc.
Adjusting the CarriageStopper
wDo not sit on carriage while adjusting.
wRemove all springs from gearbar.
wInsert carriage stopper in one of six positions.
wBe sure carriage stopper is completely
inserted in the hole and is not loose.
The carriage stopper position should usually be selected so that
when lying supine (on your back), with heels on the footbar,
there is a 90° angle of flexion at the hip joint when the carriage is
against the carriage stopper. If injury, disease or other limitations
restrict flexion at the hips or knees, adjust the carriage stopper
by placing it farther out. Adjustments can also be made for the
exercise being performed.
NOTE: The carriage stopper must be inserted in one of the
sixpositions AT ALL TIMES. Using the Reformer without the
carriage stopper may cause damage to the gearbar assembly,
rollers or spring holder.
CAUTION: Replace carriage stopper as
required. Using a broken, damaged or
defective carriage stopper may damage
yourReformer.
Gearbar
The gearbar position determines the amount of initial tension
onthe springs. The slot closest to the wooden standing platform
is position #1; the next is position #2; the next is position #3.
Lowerposition numbers provide higher spring tension.
Adjusting the Gearbar
wDo not sit on carriage while adjusting.
wRemove all springs from gearbar.
wPlace gearbar in desired position.
wEnsure gearbar slides fully into slots.
wEnsure caution message and concave indentations
face toward footbar.
Position gearbar relative to the carriage to create initial tension
on the springs, i.e. the gearbar should not be in position #3 if the
carriage stopper is in position #1 or #2 as there will not be any
spring tension.
Springs
Replace all Springs every 24 months.
The number of springs attached to the gearbar determines the
total amount of resistance. SPX®Reformers are equipped with
four 100%-tension springs, and one 50% spring.
Adjusting Springs
wTake care when attaching and detaching springs from gearbar.
wFor safety, place one hand on gearbar.
wFirmly grasp spring (not the ball on the spring) and
stretchittohook to or unhook from gearbar.
wEnsure ball end rests securely in concave indentations
ofgearbar.
ASSEMBLY & SET-UP

Headrest
The headrest adjusts to three positions: flat, half-raised or
fullyraised. It should be adjusted on an individual basis to ensure
neck and shoulders are comfortable and tension-free when
lyingsupine.
In exercises where the hips are lifted higher than the shoulders,
headrest should be flat – even when beginning from a supine
position. In some exercises it is raised to provide a brace for
thefeet.
Adjusting the Headrest
wWith no weight on headrest, lift it and hinge adjustment
blockto rest securely onto wooden edge of carriage.
Moving Reformers
The front end of all Reformers have a set of easy-roll wheels
thatmake moving or repositioning simple for anyone of
moderatestrength.
wEnsure springs are attached so carriage is secure, and
ropes do not drag.
wStand at the back of Reformer, grasp the horizontal
metal bar, and gently lift. Lift Reformer high enough
toengage easy-roll wheels.
wKeep Reformer at waist-height or lower. Do not lift higher
as this may result in damage to floor surface.
Footbar
The footbar can be set at four different heights to facilitate
various Reformer exercises and to accommodate physical
differences and abilities. The cradle closest to the gearbar
isposition #1 the cradle farthest away is position #4.
Adjusting the Footbar
wThe footbar can be adjusted while standing beside the
Reformer or sitting on the carriage.
wGently pull footbar up and lift chrome adjuster bar out
offootbar adjustment cradle.
wLift or lower footbar to the desired height and place chrome
adjuster bar securely into nearest footbar adjustment cradle.
NOTE: It is highly recommended that the Reformer be placed on
some type of non-skid material to prevent slipping and/or damage
to flooring or carpet.

wPlace desired springs in gearbar.
wPlace padded platform extender on rails ensuring it is firmly in
place against wooden standing platform and does not move.
