THE BEGINNING
Viequipment was born in the firm belief that it is possible to evolve exercise using
vibration through the development of innovative vibratory devices. Gerard Moras
and Sergio Rodríguez began to forge the foundations of Viequipment in 2009,
when they developed the first vibratory platform with different levels of distur-
bance, the Vibalance. All of their products were designed painstakingly by the
creators to increase the effectiveness and versatility of training. The positive re-
sults obtained in sport and in the field of rehabilitation motivated them to take on
new challenges to continue growing and share their findings.Among their values,
Viequipment stands apart for the idea of promoting a community which leads a

modern and critical vision in the implementation of exercise with vibration.
A new way of training. Vibalance, Viroller and Vislide continuously evolve towards
the goal of creating innovative, extremely different but very complementary pro-
ducts that satisfy a good part of the needs of physical conditioning and rehabili-
tation professionals.
THE VIROLLER
Viroller is a vibratory bar with diverse applications, allowing one to train under
the positive effects that vibratory stimulation provides to the sinewy muscle struc-
tures. Viroller allow applying myofascial release techniques, upper body exercises
with vibration under different loads or used as a vibratory platform. All in one
device.
Exercise with vibration using Viroller can form a part of warm-up and on special
occasions at the end of training sessions to accelerate neuromuscular recupera-
tion.

APPROPRIATE USE OF THE VIROLLER
CHOOSING THE LOCATION FOR THE INSTALLATION
Viroller is intended for use in professional locales or gymnasiums for exercise with
vibration.
Viroller is not intended for use in outdoor areas.
Viroller should be used in an environment with a temperature between +10°C and
+40°C.
Viroller may be used by children over 8 years of age, persons with reduced mental
or sensorial capacity, or persons without sufficient experience or knowledge if they
have been instructed in the safe use of the vibratory bar and they understand the
risks involved.
The control tower should always be placed on a flat, stable surface. Prevent the
vibratory bar from rolling when it is not placed upon a flat surface. After use, it is
recommended to place the vibratory bar upon the Viroller stabilizer. (Figure 2).
The free space around the vibratory bar should not be less than 2.0 m (Figure 3).
When various bars are placed in adjacent position they may share the free space.
IT IS ADVISED TO NOT SURPASS A TOTAL OF 20 MINUTES OF EXPOSITION
TO VIBRATORY STIMULATION AND TO NOT BE EXPOSED TO MORE THAN
10 CONSECUTIVE MINUTES. REST BETWEEN EXERCISES SHOULD BE AT
LEAST 30 SECONDS.

The Viroller does not require difficult or complicated maneuvers, however it
should be used under the supervision of a professional.
DIFFICULT OR COMPLICATED MANEUVERS
CORRECT USE OF THE EQUIPMENT AND ASSEMBLY
SAFETY TIPS AND ADVICE
The Viroller should be used as is indicated in this instruction manual, paying
special attention of keeping unsupervised children away from the equipment.
To start and stop the equipment, one can use the START/STOP button located at
the bottom of the tactile display or the foot sensor located at one of the sides of
the control tower.
The Viroller should connect to the control tower via the safety connector and the
control tower should be connected to the public electricity network as a power
source.
Do not force the original position of the L-shaped connector.

U S E R ‘ S M A N U A L | V I R O L L E R | 10
The greater length of the spiral cable which connects the vibratory bar with the con-
trol tower must be in contact with the ground. It is recommended to not separate
the control tower more than 2.0 m from the vibratory bar.
Do not step on the spiral cable.
Never touch the connection cables with wet hands.
Remove connection cables by pulling on the terminations and not the cable, as this
could result in damage.
Do not situate the control tower near sources of heat for prolonged periods of time
(heaters, hot are circuits…) and maintain ventilation displays unobstructed.
Do not place the Viroller in a humid environment. Do not allow liquid to enter the
equipment, especially the control tower. Keep the machine away from heat sources.
Viequipment takes no responsibility for damages caused by failure or interruption
of the grounding cable (ie. Electrical discharge).
Before conducting any exercise, make certain that the control tower is sufficiently
distant from the vibratory platform and that it poses no safety risk.
To avoid possible accidents during use, in no case should un-used accessories be
left near the vibratory bar.
When using the vibratory bar as a platform, placing the Viroller accessory upon its
central cylinder, it is recommended to wear clean, dry athletic shoes or heavy socks
(Figure 4).

U S E R ‘ S M A N U A L | V I R O L L E R | 12
When attaching external resistance systems to the vibratory bar (elastic straps and/
or pulley machines) using its lateral anchors, be sure to use adequate snap rings.
Do not use the vibratory bar if the contact surfaces are worn out.
Once training is finished, stop the device using the principal switch and disconnect
the control tower when it is not going to be used for prolonged periods of time.
To store and move the Viroller turn off the principal switch located at the bottom of
the tower and disconnect the L-shaped connector from the control tower.
CONNECTION OF THE VIBRATORY BAR TO THE CONTROL TOWER
Once removed from the packaging, place the control tower near the sliding plat-
form so that the spiral cable is positioned near the connector. Connect the spiral
cable safety connector to the electronic control tower as shown in Figure 5. Plug the
power cable in to the power socket and turn on the principal switch.

If the display does not come on, ensure that the L-shaped connector is properly
inserted and that the power plug functions correctly. The position of the L-shaped
connector is fixed and must be maintained so. For correct maintenance of the con-
nector, do not force or rotate the L-shaped body, ensuring that it not be subjected
to excessively elevated tension. Your vibratory bar is ready to use.
EXERCISES AND RECOMMENDATIONS
ADVISORY: BEFORE BEGINNING ANY EXERCISE PROGRAM, CONSULT
YOUR DOCTOR.
Read all of the instructions before using the product. Improper training or excessi-
ve exercise can cause health damage. Always use under the supervision of a profes-
sional.
If you experience pain or vertigo while doing exercise, stop immediately and cool
down. This is especially important for anyone who has had previous health pro-
blems.
Viequipment assumes no responsibility for personal injury or property damage due
to or caused by the use of this product.

Viroller is designed for exercises conducted with hands gripping or supported by
the lateral handles or on the central cylinder of the vibratory bar, whether with
the bar placed on the ground, moved by the user or suspended in a portico by
its lateral anchor points. At the same time, it can serve as a foam roller, using the
soft central cylinder of the vibratory bar or as a vibratory platform by using the
stabilizing accessory.
Placing the Viroller upon the stabilizing accessory (Figure 6a) one may conduct
exercises standing on one leg upon the bar´s central cylinder. Placing the stabi-
lizing accessory upon the vibratory bar (Figure 6b) one can use it as a vibratory
platform with instability in the anteroposterior axis. Finally, when the stabilizing
accessory is in contact with the ground one can conduct exercises on the incline
plane (Figure 6c).
The total time of exposure to vibratory stimulation in one single session should
not exceed 20 mins, regardless of the amplitude and frequency selected. Excee-
ding this time limit could be damaging to one’s health.
SUSPEND THE VIBRATORY BAR FROM A PORTICO
The vibratory bar has two lateral anchors which allow you to suspend it from a
portico using snap rings (Figure 7). Before conducting exercises, ensure that
snap ring son each end of the bar can comfortably support the load applied. Ne-
ver suspend the bar from a portico that is not adequate to resist the forces which
are going to be exerted against it during exercise.

If so desired, the control tower may be moved, separating it from the sliding
platform, thanks to the extendable spiral cable. To do so, slide or slightly lift the
tower, do not place it upon the safety connector. To avoid elevated tension in the
connector, avoid extending the spiral cable to its full limit.
To transport Viroller with maximum safety, disconnect the aerial connector, first
unscrewing the safety connector, so that it then may be removed.
MOBILITY OF THE CONTROL TOWER
MAXIMUM WEIGHT
DESCRIPTION OF THE FUNCTIONING OF THE CONTROL TOWER
The maximum load for the sliding platform should not exceed 100 kg. Do not sub-
mit the lateral couplings of the sliding platform to loads superior to 50 + 50 kg.
The Viroller control tower allows one to select the frequency of vibration, the on/
off cycles and the ignition timing.
When one has ensured that both the sliding platform connector and the power
cable are correctly connected, engage the principle on switch situated at the top
left of the control tower. One can confirm that the display lights up, showing the
