Usage Guidelines

1. Before You Begin
• Always ensure the two Cross Support Brackets of the A-frame are pushed
down and locked horizontally in place.
• Always ensure that the Safety Hooks on both sides are latched over and
securely holding the Adjustable Pivot Bars.
• Always check that all nuts and bolts are tightened and have not come loose and are in good condition (i.e. not cracked,
not rusty, etc.)
2. Select An Inversion Mode with Safety Bar
a. Decide what mode of inversion you would like:
• Easy (less than 22°)
• Medium (22-55°)
• Expert (over 55°)
b. Once you decide, pull out the Safety Bar from the front locked position.
Then, place the Safety Bar in 1 of the 3 places below:
• Easy (less than 22°): upper set of holes on Rear Frame
• Medium (22-55°): lower set of holes on Rear Frame
• Expert (over 55°): set it aside where it will not interfere or become a
safety hazard throughout the mounting, inversion, and dismounting
process, but, where you can easily retrieve it directly after you complete
your inversion workout. We suggest placing it up against the inner side
of the Rear Frame and the ground.
3. Setting Up with the Safety Strap
a. Unlock the Safety Lock from the Adjustable Height Bar.
Without mounting, first test the Back Rest inversion angle by tilting
it back to check where it will stop and make any necessary length adjustments to the Safety Strap.
If you are using the Safety Bar for Easy or Medium inversion, please leave at least a
1” distance between the Safety Bar and the backpad for your safety
(i.e. when fully inverted, the Back Rest should not touch the Safety Bar).
Please refer to the “Strap Adjustment” section
of the Safety Instructions for instructions and more details on how to
adjust the Safety Strap.
NOTE: The Safety Strap gives you the most control over your inversion
safety and angling. The Safety Bar feature is designed as a secondary
security measure to prevent over-inversion. We do not suggest the
Back Rest reach the Safety Bar during inversion.
