INTRODUCTION
Thank you for selecting the Tri W-G Motorized Parallel Bar. The purpose of these operating instructions is to
introduce the authorized user/operator in using and working with this device safely, and to conduct routine pre-
ventative maintenance procedures on the device. For this goal to be achieved, it is essential that the author-
ized user/operator carefully read this manual, understand, and practice the precautionary measures recom-
mended in it. PLEASE HAVE ANYONE WHO WILL BE OPERATING THIS PARALLEL BAR READ THIS MANUAL.
UNCRATING
1. Inspect for any damage to the parallel bar immediately after uncrating. If the parallel bar is damaged, file
a merchandise damage report immediately with the delivering carrier. Do not return damaged merchandise to
Tri W-Gunless instructed to do so.
2. Fasteners and wrenches are in the hand rail box; you will need them to assemble the parallel bar. Remove
all packaging material from the parallel bar and again inspect for damage, including chain system underneath
the parallel bar platform. Report any shipping damage to delivering carrier immediately.
INSTALLATION
1. There is some assembly required. (Refer to Assembly Instructions on page 2)
2. Position the parallel bar in an area having flat/level floors so that the parallel bar is not distroted out of align-
ment.
3. Connect power cord to properly grounded 120 Volt AC receptacle, conforming to applicable nationally rec-
ognized electrical codes.
4. Power supply cord serves as disconnect device. The socket-outlet shall be installed near the equipment
and shall be easily accessible. The device has an appliance inlet with external accessible fuses in the line and
neutral. The replacement fuses must be 5 x 20mm-5 Amp-Time Lag Fuses with High Breaking Capacity. When
changing fuses, one must unplug the power supply cord from the main source of power.
IMPORTANTSAFETY/PRECAUTIONARY INSTRUCTIONS
1. Once again, please have anyone who will be operating the parallel bar read the manual before using.
Operator should understand and practice the precautionary instructions recommended in this manual. All users
should use common sense and know the limitations and hazards associated with operating the parallel bar.
2. NEVER place your hands or feet, nor the patients’ hands or feet, near any of the working mechanisms of
the parallel bar when operating. Also, DONOT place or leave wheelchair, objects or items of any kind between

ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS
Use fasteners and wrenches packed in the hand rail box to assemble.
DO NOT EMOVE THE SLOTTED WOOD BLOCKS (CHAIN GUIDES)
Caution: Do not operate motors or rotate shafts before bars are completely joined at the base and line
shafts are coupled as the platform. Sections are timed and limit controls are set at the factory.
Make certain that the floor under the bars is level; any uneveness may cause operation of the parallel
bar to be noisy. If leveling is difficult, a porous compressible composition board may be placed under
the entire parallel bar platform.
MULTIPLE SECTIONS:
Align the motor section 111-010-000 with the center platform section 111-012-000 (18 foot or 24 foot size) or
the end platform section 111-011-000 (12 foot size). Install cap screws on side of platform at junction point.
The line shafts, keyways and couplers should be in alignment from the factory, and starting from the motor sec-
tion, can be gently tapped together. Should the couplers and keyways be slightly out of align
ment, the shafts on the center or end section may be turned by hand to achieve alignment. Do not turn
the shafts on the motor section as these have been timed with limit controls.
Make certain the couplers are equal on both line shafts and tighten the allen screws.
HANDRAILS:
Couple the handrail sections by inserting sleeve joints and secure with allen screws. Make certain the coun-
tersunk holes on the rail supports are on one side and mount the handrails with the countersunk holes toward
the middle of the parallel bars. The reason will become evident as the handrails are fastened to the uprights.
After installation of handrails, check for horizontal and vertical alignment. Some variation will be apparent if the
floor is irregular. The parallel bar will operate with the handrails slightly distorted, but if they are out of align-
ment, follow the instructions for readjustment, Figures 1-4.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Adjusting Height--To raise or lower the bars, simply touch the “UP” or “DOWN” key on the switch box.
Adjusting Width--To adjust width of the bars, simply tought the “IN” or “OUT” key on the switch box.
Capacity--The parallel bar is intended to support 600 lbs (272.2 Kilograms).
Intended Use--This device is a motorized height and width parallel bar intended for medical purposes, such as
to redevelop muscles or restore motion to joints or for use as an adjunct treatment for obesity.
Due to normal wear, it may be necessary to replace the power cord, or routinely check to make sure all con-
nections are tight. Call our customer service for replacement parts and/or installation instructions.
Any repair should be performed by trained or certified service personnel.

TROUBLESHOOTING
1.0 Parallel bar does not move up or down:
1.1 Check power cord connection to main power source.
1.2 Make sure main power source is receiving power.
1.3 Thermal protector may have activated, and you must allow the system to cool down.

OPERATION
The hand rail assembly on the parallel bar platforms are shipped in the extreme “OUT” and “DOWN” positions.
Before installing the line shaft shield, push the left rocker switch to the “UP” position while observing the line
shaft for any erratic motion. If the shaft does not operate smoothly, check for damaged parts from shipping and
handling. If no damage is apparent, continue to operate until the left limit switch is contacted by part 111-038-
000, Figure 4. There should be a 16 inch clearance on the bars as indicated in Figure 2.
OTHERHAZARDS
The manufacturer has constructively, and with protective measures, minimized the effects of existing hazards.
Pay attention to the following hazards and the possible countermeasures given in the following:

Page 5
Push the left rocker switch to the “DOWN” position and continue to operate until the right limit switch is contact-
ed by part 111-038-000, Figure 4. There should be a 1 1/2 inch clearance on the bars as indicated in Figure 1.
Push the right rocker switch to the “IN” position, again observing for smooth line shaft operation. If no damage
is apparent, continue to operate until the right limit switch is contacted by part 111-036-000, Figure 3. There
should be a 3/8 inch clearance as indicated in Figure 1.
AD USTMENTS in any of the above operations may be made at this time, although it should not be necessary,
as the unit was timed at the factory.
CHAIN AD USTMENT:
Remove motor cover and line shaft shields.
MAIN CHAIN DRIVES:
Motor chains should be taut but not tight. Chain should be able to be depressed 1/4 inch in free area. To tight-
en chain, loosen the four motor bolts and lift motor to attain desired tension and tighten bolts.
Consult Figures 17 and 18. Loosen nuts VA and VB. Insert allen wrench in VC and turn clockwise until prop-
er tension is achieved. While holding allen wrench securely, tighten nuts VA and VB.
HORIZONTAL CROSS CHAIN DRIVES:
Adjust similar to VERTICAL, except use HA, HB, and HC points, Figures 17 and 18.
If chain to too tight, a crackling noise will develop since the chain will climb on the sprocket teeth.
BAR SUPPORT OUT OF ALIGNMENT:
Should one of the racks 111-024-000, Figures 2 and 21, on the horizontal travel be out of time, it can be indi-
vidually adjusted by raising the bars to the maximum height, removing the screws from part 111-020-000 per-
mitting the square shaft 111-021-000 to be dropped from the rack bracket 111-019-000 thereby disengaging the
gear 111-055-000. Move the rack so it is equidistant with the other racks from the upright and replace the gear,
shaft and coupling, and screws.
“IN” AND “OUT” AD USTMENTS:
Loosen allen screws on acme screw 111-040-000, Figure 3. Operate “OUT” motor until handrail is a 3/8” posi-
tion, Figure 1. Center acme screw 111-040-000 between limit switches and rotate until nut 111-036-000 con-
tacts left limit switch. Tighten allen screws and operate “IN” motor until 4 7/8” position, Figure 2, is reached.
Correct spacing and contact can be made by adjusting fine screw on acme nut 111-036-000.
“UP” AND “DOWN” AD USTMENTS:
Loosen allen screws on acme screw, Figure 4. Operate “DOWN” motor until bars are 1 1/2” position, Figure1.
Center acme screw between limits and rotate until acme nut 111-038-000 contacts right limit switch. Tighten
allen screws and operate the “UP” motor until bars reach the 16” position, Figure 2. Adjust limit switches
accordingly.
