9. OPERATION INSTRUCTIONS
NOTE: Install APT-1K for arms or legs exercise as described in the previ-
ous chAPT-1Kers.
9.1. Active mode - ISOKINETIC operation
Step 1: Insert the handgrips or footrests in one of the four mounting
holes according to the radius and range of motion required.
NOTE: As the effective crank arm length is reduced in the ACTIVE
mode, the amount of effort required increases while the range of motion
decreases, and vice versa.
Step 2: To activate the active mode from the stand by position (after
the electrical power is supplied to the APT-1K): press the
button. The green ACTIVE mode indicator (Figure 3-2)
will light up.
Step 3: Set the desired load level by pressing one of the five load se-
lection push switches (Figure 3-4).
Step 4: Rotate the APT-1K handgrips or footrests forward or back-
ward. Actual exercising force is displayed as a percentage (%)
on the Bar Indicator (Figure 3-5).
NOTE: In this mode, an increase in the rotation speed (RPM) will lead
to an increase in the exercising force (Table 1, Appendix 1).

APT-1 –User’s Manual (EU) Rev. 2024-01 en 20
9.2. PASSIVE mode
Step 1: Insert the handgrips or footrests in one of the four mounting
holes according to the radius and range of motion required.
NOTE: As the effective crank arm length is reduced in the PASSIVE
mode, the range of movement is reduced and the degree of resistance
that the motor can overcome is increased.
Step 2: To activate the passive mode from the stand by position (after
the electrical power is supplied to the APT-1K): Press the
button two times, until the green PASSIVE mode indica-
tor (Figure 3-3) will light up. From the ACTIVE mode –press
once only.
Step 3: Set the desired rotation force and speed by pressing one of
the five exercise level selection push switches (Figure 3-4). 1
= lowest force, 20 rpm / 5 = highest force, 60 rpm
Step 4: Hold onto the handgrips (for arm exercise) or secure both feet
to the footrests (for legs exercise). Make sure that APT-1K is
placed at a comfortable distance for exercise by turning the
crank arms one complete revolution.
Press the button for forward rotation.
Press the button for backward rotation.
NOTE: There will be a short delay before the APT-1K begins to turn in
the chosen direction.
Step 5: The operation force of the crank arms should rotate the arms
or legs of with no effort on the part of the user. This rotation
force varies according to exercise level and crank arm mount-
ing hole location selected (Table 3, Appendix 1).
Step 6: To stop the rotation of the crank-arms and exit the PASSIVE
mode, press the button. The indicators will turn off and
the APT-1K will return to the stand-by position.
