HOW TO MOVE THE ROWER IN THE UNFOLDED POSITION Stand behind the rower and lift the Rail (I) until I the rower will roll on the wheels. Then, carefully move the rower to the desired location, and lower the Rail to the floor. Do not hold or pull on the console when moving the rower. HOW TO MOVE THE ROWER IN THE FOLDED POSITION See HOW TO FOLD AND STORE THE ROWER on page 12, and fold the rower. Then, hold the Frame Handle (J), place your foot on a Stabilizer Foot (Q), and tip the rower until it will roll on the wheels. Carefully move the rower to the desired location, and then tip it into the storage position. Do not hold or pull on the console when moving the rower. HOW TO ROW ON THE ROWER Sit on the seat, place your feet in the footrests, and adjust the straps to fit your feet. Then, hold the row bar with an overhand grip. Correct rowing form consists of three phases: 1. The first phase is the CATCH. Slide the seat forward until your knees are almost touching your chest. Pull the row bar until your hands are directly above your feet. 2. The second phase is the DRIVE. Push backward with your legs. Lean back slightly at the hips (not at the waist), keeping your back straight. As you straighten your legs, pull the row bar toward your chest. Keep your elbows outward. 3. The third phase is the FINISH. Your legs should be nearly straight. Continue to pull the row bar until your hands are even with your chest. After the finish phase, extend your arms forward and pull the seat forward using your legs. Repeat this sequence, moving through all three phases with a smooth, fluid motion. Remember to breathe normally as you row; never hold your breath. J Q 13
