OPERATIONAL INSTRUCTIONS

SUGGESTIONS FOR USE
Begin slowly; invert only 15-20 degrees to begin with. Stay inverted only as long as you are comfortable.
Return upright slowly.
Make gradual changes: increase the angle only if it is comfortable. Increase the angle only a few
degrees at a time. Increase the time of use 1-2 minutes up to ten over a period of weeks. Add stretching
and light exercise only after you are comfortable with inversion.
Watch your body: come up slowly, dizziness after a session means you came up to fast. Wait a while
after eating before using table. If you get nauseous, do not fight it, come up as soon as you feel queasy.
Keep moving: movement while inverted encourages blood, lymph, and spinal fluid circulation and aids
in alignment of bones and organs. Movement may be accomplished by either rhythmic traction or light
exercise. Do not exercise strenuously while inverted. Limit partial inversion without movement to one or
two minutes. Limit full inversion with no movement to only a few seconds.
Invert regularly: we recommend two or three times a day depending upon your current condition. Try to
schedule it for the same times each day.

LOCKING THE BED
When the inversion table rotates past the vertical inverted position the bed becomes locked, and will not
return to the upright position in the usual way. The locked position allows you to hang straight upside-down
completely free of the bed. This position allows you to enjoy all of the benefits of a handstand, with none of
the discomforts, as shown in illustration A. It also allows you to do exercises such as the waistband, as
shown in illustration B.
To get into the locked position, if necessary, adjust the HEIGHT ADJUSTMENT BEAM(12) shorter, and
then mount and use normally. When your arms are completely extended above your head, the bed will
rotate all the way to the locked position.
CAUTION:
RECOVERY FROM LOCKED POSITION
To recover from the locked position, simply grab the HANDRAILS and pull on them while pushing back on
the HEEL HOLDERS(19) with your legs. If you can not reach the HANDRAILS, then you can still recover
by grabbing the back of the bed with one hand, the REAR FRAME(2) with the other, and pulling your hands
together, as shown in illustration C.
MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS
The safety level of the Therapy Inversion System can be maintained only if it is examined regularly for
damage and wear.
You must understand how to recover from the fully inverted position before using the fully
inverted position. Read the RECOVERY FROM LOCKED POSITION section below
BEFORE
using the fully inverted position.
Check the warning label, nylon strap, strap buckle, pivot arms, nylon bed, heel holders, foam pads, and
spring pin for damage and wear.
Replace damaged and worn components immediately and/or keep the equipment out of use until repairs
are complete.
