Step 1
Assemble the A-Frame (NX-1110)
• Open the A-Frame on the floor and make sure the Spreader Arms are locked open (Figure 1).
• Familiarize yourself with the Front, Back, Left and Right of the A-Frame. You may want to refer back to this diagram
for reference throughout the assembly process.

Attach the Upper Support Arms to the Table Bed (EP-1300)
• Place the Table Bed face down on the floor and push down on the Support Beam, so the two holes align evenly with
the holes at the base of the Upper Support Arms (Figure 2). You may have to exert extra pressure to ensure that the
Support Beam slides over the rubber spacers.
• Insert the two Bolts (EP-1149) into the open holes.
• Fasten each bolt with a Washer and Nut.
• Using the Allen Wrench (IA-1149) to steady the bolts, tighten the nuts onto the bolts with a 10/13 mm Open End
Wrench (F5-1088) (Figure 3).

Install the Roller Hinges (F5-1064) onto the Table Bed (EP-1300)
• For ease-of-assembly, rest the Table Bed against the Crossbar of the A-Frame (Figure 4).
• Open the Cam Locks on each side of the Table Bed (Figure 5).
• With the Pivot Pins facing outward, insert the Roller Hinges into the brackets on each side of the Table Bed Assembly.
The Roller Hinges must slide between the Cam Locks and the Brackets (Figure 6).
• Engage one of the holes in the Roller Hinge over the Bracket Pin. Make sure the Roller Hinges are in the same hole
setting on both sides. Figure 6 shows the Roller Hinges engaged correctly in Setting C.
• Push down on the Cam Locks (Figure 7) to secure the Roller Hinges.
NOTE: Refer to the Owner’s Manual for an explanation of the hole settings. If you are unsure, use Setting C to start.

Step 4
Attach the Table Bed (EP-1300) to the A-Frame (NX-1110)
• Pick up the Table Bed, holding each side near the Roller Hinges, and stand in front of the A-Frame where the
Crossbar is located (refer to Figure 1 to determine A-Frame Front).
• Lower each Roller Hinge Pivot Pin into the A-Frame hinge plates, one side at a time (Figure 8 and 9).
NOTE: You may need to push outward on the A-Frame in order for the 2nd Pivot Pin to lock in place.
• Make sure that each Pivot Pin is seated at the base of the slot of the Hinge Plate (Figure 10).
• Ensure that the Self-Locking Hooks have closed over both Pivot Pins, and that the Table Bed rotates smoothly.
WARNING
!
Failure of the Self-Locking Hooks to close over both Roller Hinge Pivot Pins is an indication
of improper assembly and if not corrected could result in serious injury or death!

Insert the Main Shaft (NX-1650) into the Table Bed
• Loosen the De-Rattler Knob on the Main Shaft Housing.
• With the Height Adjustment Settings on the Main Shaft facing up, slide the end of the Main Shaft into
the Main Shaft Housing (Figure 11) on the Table Bed.
• Pull out the Height-Selector Locking Pin to allow the Main Shaft to slide in further and release in the desired
height setting. Refer to the Owner’s Manual for more information on selecting your height setting.
• Tighten the De-Rattler Knob.
NOTE: The De-Rattler Knob is an optional accessory that helps prevent a slight shift in the table when you invert. The
security of the product is not compromised if you choose not to tighten the knob.
• The Main Shaft MUST REST against the Crossbar of the A-Frame (Figure 12).
NOTE: The Crossbar prevents the Table Bed from rotating forward when the user steps on the Ankle Comfort Dial.
If the Main Shaft does not rest on the Crossbar as shown in Figure 12, then the Table Bed has been assembled
backwards onto the A-Frame. This MUST BE CORRECTED before use.

of the Hinge Plate (Figure 16).
• Secure with two (2) Hex Bolts (H1-1202) for each side using a 10/13 mm Wrench (F5-1088) provided.
Be careful not to overtighten.
