OPERATION
RESET: Press the MODE button to switch the TIME/DIS/CAL option,
the selected number starts to ash. Press the RESET key to clear the
value.
LED MONITOR FUNCTIONS:
MODE: Press the MODE button to switch the TIME/DIS/CAL option
and the ashing item is a selection.
SET: Press the MODE button to switch the TIME/DIS/CAL option and
press the SET button to set the current ashing value. After the start,
the data starts counting down the SET value is reached and the
meter should emit a beep. This feature can be used in more than
two rowing machine competition modes.
MODE: Measures speed
TIME: Measures exercise time from start to nish
DISTANCE: Measures distance travelled from start to nish
CALORIES: Measures calories burned from start to nish
TOTAL: Measures total distance of motion
Refer to the detail view of illustration. DO NOT overll the tank - this could void the warranty. The
standard calibration level is Level 9. The amount of resistance is dictated by the amount of water in
the tank. For example Level 3 of water offer light resistance, Level 9 offers the heaviest resistance.
HOW TO FILL AND EMPTY THE TANK:
1. Remove the FILL PLUG(24) from the TANK(17)
2. To ll with water, refer to illustration A. Place a FUNNEL(not included) into the tank. Use a water
cup, or a SYPHON PUMP(not included) and a bucket to ll the tank.
3. To empty tank, refer to illustration B. Place a bucket next to the rower. Use the SYPHON PUMP(not
included) to pump out the water from the tank into the bucket.

GUIDELINES
4. Once completed, insert the FILL PLUG(24) into the TANK(17). Please wipe excess water from the
frames after lling.
NOTE: Fill the tank only with municipal water, do not use well water. If municipal water is unavailable,
use distilled water and add a water purication tablet. NEVER USE POOL CHLORINE OR CHLORINE
BLEACH. Refer to the Maintenance section for more advice on water treatment. The water in the
tank is not for human or animal consumption. Please safely dispose of the water after removal from
the tank.
CORRECT ROWING POSITION:
The Rowing Action uses 84% of your muscle mass; from the tips of the ngers holding the handle/
oars, to the balls of the feet connected to the footboard/boat, all the muscles between these 2
points contribute to the Rowing Action. The Rowing Action is comprised of both fast (drive phase)
and slow (recovery phase) movements. It is important to combine these 2 movements into a rhythm
in order to create a smooth, owing, unhurried Rowing Action. The diagrams below show 3 basic
movements of the rowing action.

How you begin your exercise program depends on your physical condition. If you have been
inactive forseveral years or are severely overweight, start slowly and increase your workout time
gradually. Increase your workout intensity gradually by monitoring your heart rate while you exercise.

5
GUIDELINES
Have your doctor review your training and diet programs.
Begin your training program slowly with realistic goals that have been set by you and your
physician.
Warm up before you exercise and cool down after you work out.
Take your pulse periodically during your workout and strive to stay within a range of 60% (lower
intensity) to 90% (higher intensity) of your maximum heart rate zone. Start at the lower intensity,
and build up to higher intensity as you become more aerobically t.
If you feel dizzy or lightheaded you should slow down or stop exercising.
Initially you may only be able to exercise within your target zone for a few minutes; however, your
aerobic capacity will improve over the next six to eight weeks. It is important to pace yourself while
you exercise so you don’t tire too quickly.
To determine if you are working out at the correct intensity, use a heart
rate monitor or use the table below. For effective aerobic exercise, your
heart rate should be maintained at a level between 60% and 90% of
your maximum heart rate. If just starting an exercise program, work out
at the low end of your target heart rate zone. As your aerobic capacity
improves, gradually increase the intensity of your workout by increasing
your heart rate.
Measure your heart rate periodically during your workout by stopping the exercise but continuing
to move your legs or walk around. Place two or three ngers on your wrist and take a six second
heartbeat count. Multiply the results by ten to nd your heart rate. For example, if your six second
heartbeat count is 14, your heart rate is 140 beats per minute. A six second count is used because
your heart rate will drop rapidly when you stop exercising. Adjust the intensity of your exercise until
your heart rate is at the proper level.
TARGET HEART RATE ZONE ESTIMATED BY AGE
For cardiorespiratory training benets, the American College of Sports Medicine recommends
working out within a heart rate range of 55% to 90% of maximum heart rate. To predict the maximum
heart rate, the following formula was used: 220 - Age = predicted maximum heart rate.

MAINTENANCE
The safety and integrity designed into the Water Rowing Machine can only be maintained when
the Water Rowing Machine is regularly examined for damage and wear. Special attention should
be given to the following:
1. Sit on the SEAT and pull on the HANDLEBAR to verify that the Water System provides resistance
and the seat travel is smooth and stable.
2. Periodic maintenance is required to maintain proper condition of the water in the tank. The water
must be refreshed periodically by adding a water purication tablet, such as sodium dichlor (56%
chlorine) every 4-6 months. NEVER USE POOL CHLORINE (TRICHLOR 90% CHLORINE) OR CHLORINE
BLEACH. Use of these products will void the warranty and damage the product.
3. Clean the tank periodically. DO NOT using methylated spirits, chlorates, bleach or ammonia
based uids. The use of improper cleaning products will void the warranty and damage the product.
4. Clean the roller tracks on the RAILS(3, 96) with an absorbent cloth.
