FRAME(2). Then push down on the middle of the two FOLDING LINKAGES(3) until they are fully
locked down.
STEP 2
Slide one PROTECTIVE COVER(23) onto each side of the BASE ASSEMBLY, and pull the covers
down until the bottom of the covers are slightly lower than the FOLDING LINKAGES(3). Secure the
PROTECTIVE COVERS(23) to the FOLDING LINKAGES(3) with the SECURING STRAPS on the
bottom of the covers.

STEP 3
Slidethebottom of the two PIVOTARMS(5)intothebracketslocatedat each sideoftheMAIN FRAME(4).
Align the desired hole on the arm with the peg on the bracket, and insert the peg into the hole to lock the
PIVOT ARMS(5) in position. Then secure the PIVOT ARMS(5) on the pegs with ROUND HEAD
BOLTS(M6 x 10mm)(38) and LARGE WASHERS(M6)(44).
PIVOT ARM ADJUSTMENT:
There are three adjustment holes on the PIVOT ARMS(5) allowing you to position the MAIN FRAME(4)
at three different heights. The lowest hole will allow the least amount of inversion angle. The top hole will
allow the greatest amount of inversion angle.
CAUTION:
STEP 4
Attach the MAIN FRAME(4) onto the REAR FRAME(2)by sliding the slots in the ends of the two PIVOT
ARMS(5) into the slots on the REAR FRAME(2).
Use the lowest holes in the PIVOT ARMS(5) until you become familiar with the Gravity
Inversion Table.
Both PIVOT ARMS(5) must be adjusted to the same hole. Trying to adjust the PIVOT
ARMS(5) to different positions could cause damage to the machine, and injury to the user.

BUCKLE
Do not use the Gravity Inversion Tableuntil you have verified your height setting. Failure
to use the proper height setting can result in difficulty recovering from the decline position.
See HEIGHT ADJUSTMENT instructions on page 10.
The NYLON STRAPS are used to control the decline angle of the Gravity Inversion Table.
For a steeper decline angle, lengthen the straps. For a lessor decline angle, shorten the straps.
Make sure these NYLON STRAPS are tight in the buckle and check the declineangle before
using the Gravity Inversion Table.

GENERAL PRECAUTIONS
UsethelowestholesinthePIVOT ARMS(5) untilyou becomefamiliarwith the Gravity Inversion Table.
Do not use the Gravity Inversion Table alone. Always have a helper available in case assistance is
needed in recovering from the decline position.
Make sure that the HEEL HOLDERS(12) are holding your feet securely.
Make sure that the HEIGHT ADJUSTMENT BEAM(6) is properly set for your height.
Make sure that the HEIGHT ADJUSTMENT BEAM(6) is held securely by both the LARGE SPRING
PIN(18) and the LOCKING KNOB(19).
Make sure that there is enough room for the bed to rotate completely.

THE HANDLEBARS
For added convenience, and safety, a set of HANDLEBARS has been added to the Gravity Inversion
Table.These HANDLEBARS are located at the top of the REAR FRAME(2). The HANDLEBARS are to
help you return to the upright position from any degree of inversion. If you wish to return to the upright
position, and the bed is moving too slowly, or not moving at all, simply grab the HANDLEBARS and pull on
them until you return to the upright position.
HEIGHT ADJUSTMENT
The Gravity Inversion Table is a very sensitive balance device. It responds to very slight changes in
weight distribution. It is very important to make sure that the height adjustment is adjusted properly. Use
the following procedure to set the height adjustment and balance the Gravity Inversion Table.
Adjust the NYLON STRAPS to restrict
movement to approximately 15 degrees
beyond the horizontal position. The
nylon straps should not allow the Gravity
Inversion Table togointothefull inversion
position while you are setting the height
adjustment.
Loosen the LOCKING KNOB(19) under
the MAIN FRAME(4).
PulltheLARGESPRING PIN(18)anduse
the SCALE DECAL(16) to set the
HEIGHT ADJUSTMENT BEAM(6).
Tighten the LOCKING KNOB(19).
Mount the machine.
Lock your ankles into the HEEL
HOLDERS(12).
Lie back with your hands at your sides.
Slowly raise your hands to your chest.
If your feet are higher than your head,
dismount and try a taller setting. If you do
not rotate to a position close to level,
dismount and try a shorter setting.

The Gravity Inversion Table should return to the upright position when your hands are below
your waist. If it does not, use a taller setting.
Verify that adequate head clearance is available between the user's head and the floor before
using this inversion table. This is especially important for tall users.
