Important Safety Instructions

READ, UNDERSTAND and FOLLOW all safety precautions of your Aquatic Fitness
System prior to beginning any exercise regimen in your Aquatic Fitness System.
Never exercise alone. Always have someone close by in case of fatigue, accident or
injury. When you are exercising, or simply relaxing, in “water” the risks of injury while being alone are increased. If you become incapacitated for any reason, and do not have someone available to help, you could drown.
Do NOT change your approved exercise routine without first consulting with your physician. Your physician should approve any exercise pro gram you use. Likewise, any modifications to the program should also be approved before you implement the changes.
Always wear shatterproof safety glasses whenever using HydroSport equipment or other stretch-band type of equipment. Failure to use pro p er eyewear may result in serious injury or loss of sight.
Ease into the water – DO NOT DIVE, JUMP, OR PUSH OFF WALL WITH FORCE. Diving, jumping, or pushing off the wall of an Aquatic Fitness System may result in permanent injury or death.
The Swim Tether is a swim aid and not a safety device. Unsupervised use of this product could result in serious injury or death.
An experienced adult swimmer should always accompany inexperienced swimmers, non­swimmers, and children.
Never let children play with the Swim Tether Cord. They could get the cord wrapped around their neck and suffocate.
Do not allow your Tensor Cords to remain in direct sunlight for extended periods of time. Exposure to direct sunlight for extended periods of time can cause the Tensor Cords to deteriorate. Deteriorated, or damaged, Tensor Cords could break and cause injury if the break should occur during use.

HydroSport
Be sure to examine your Tensor Cords for damage or deterioration prior to each use. Do not use damaged or deteriorated Tensor Cords.
As with swimming everywhere, swimming in your Aquatic Fitness System requires you to practice standard swimming safety precautions. Because your Aquatic Fitness System provides the features of a lap pool, track, circuit training station, rowing machine, and home hydrotherapy spa, it is necessary that you be aware of a diverse range of safety and health precautions.

Using the Swim Tether

The HydroSport Swim Tether system is included with each Aquatic Fitness System. It allows you to conduct a full
swimming exercise program – while swimming in place. The Swim Tether system includes a 7-foot Swim Tether Pole, an
adjustable Swim Tether Belt, and 7 feet of Swim Cord.
The Swim Tether Belt is easily snapped into place around your waist using a “quick-release” buckle. There is also a slide-adjustment on the back to allow you to adjust the belt to your comfort position.
Never let children play with the Swim Tether Cord. They could get the cord wrapped around their neck and suffocate.
The Swim Tether is a swim aid and not a safety device. Unsupervised use of this product could result in serious injury or death.
Do NOT adjust the belt too tightly! If the belt is too tight it might not release in the event of an emergency.

HydroSport
For your convenience, a Swim Tether mount is located at each end of the Aquatic Fitness System’s swimming area. Simply place the Swim Tether Pole securely in the mount, strap on the adjustable Swim Tether Belt, adjust the Swim Cord length, and ease into the water.
Ease into the water – DO NOT DIVE, JUMP, OR PUSH OFF WALL WITH FORCE. Diving, jumping, or pushing off the wall of an Aquatic Fitness System may result in permanent injury or death.
5
HydroSport
As you swim, the Swim Tether Pole applies resistance and holds you back. The harder you swim, the more resistance is applied. If you decide to change swimming strokes, such as the backstroke or sidestroke, be sure to reposition the Swim Tether Belt before you start using the new swim stroke.
Because the Swim Tether Pole is flexible and applies resistance to your swimming exercises, it also helps support you. The result of “holding you back” is also “holding you up.” This feature will hel p hold you near the surface while you “perfect your swimming stroke.”
The Swim Tether is a swim aid and not a safety device. Unsupervised use of this product could result in serious injury or death.
An experienced adult swimmer should always accompany inexperienced swimmers, non­swimmers, and children.
Never exercise alone. Always have someone close by in case of fatigue, accident or injury. When you are exercising, or simply relaxing, in “water” the risks of injury while being alone are increased. If you become incapacitated for any reason, and do not have someone available to help, you could drown.

Using the Swim Kick Bar

The HydroSport Swim Kick Bar is installed as a standard feature for your swimming and exercise pleasure on the AquaFit Dual Temp and AquaPro series of Aquatic Fitness Systems. It is located at the end opposite the steps.
7
HydroSport
You can use the Swim Kick Bar in much the same fashion as you would use the edge of your swimming pool or a paddleboard. Turning on the Swim Jets will alter the exercise dynamics.

If you become incapacitated for any reason, and do not have someone available to help, you could drown.
Do NOT change your approved exercise routine without first consulting with your physician. Your physician should approve any exercise pro gram you use. Likewise, any modifications to the program should also be approved before you implement the changes.
Always wear shatterproof safety glasses whenever using HydroSport equipment or other stretch-band type of equipment. Failure to use proper eyewear may result in serious injury or loss of sight.

The Swim Kick Bar is also useful for maintaining balance when doing low-impact, or other, exercises.

Using the Swim Jets

A totally different swimming dynamic is achieved by using the high volume Swim Jets located at the end opposite the steps.
To achieve a sustained swimming exercise routine that will improve your fitness and endurance, you can adjust the Swim Jets to achieve a pace that is right for you.
10
HydroSport
To use the Swim Jets properly, you should pick out a location along the side, or bottom, to use as a “focus point.” Next, visualize a “box” resting on the top of the water with the front en d of the “box” located about 6” to 12” inches from your focus point. Then pace yourself to swim within the “box.”
The trick is to pace yourself for “endurance” and to remain “in the box” for an extende d period of time (i.e. 5-20 minutes). Don’t try to “race to the end” or to “out-swim” the Swim Jets.
Use the Swim Tether if speed is your exercise goal. The Swim Tether will allow you to swim as fast as you want and still remain in one location.
These special high volume jets can be controlled to customize your e xercise requirements. You can change the volume of water, or the air and water mixture, flowing through the Swim Jets to maximize the dynamics for your exercise routine, or simply for your swimming pleasure.
Details on how to control the high volume pumps, select how many pumps you want to use, or how much air you want mixed with the water is described in the following sections.
If you are using the Swim Tether, or the Swim Kick Bar, turning on the Swim Jets can add additional exercise dynamics.
11
HydroSport

Activating the Jets

The Aquatic Fitness Systems have three separate pumps to provide high volume water flow. Pump 1 is a dual-speed pump that provides high volume water flow to either th e S wim Jets or the HydroTherapy Jets, depending on the position of the Diverter Valve. Pumps 2 and 3 are single speed pumps that provide high volume water flow directly to the Swim Jets.
Pressing the Pump1 button starts Pump 1 with a low volume flow. Pressing it again will increase the water volume to high. A third press will turn Pump 1 OFF. Pressing the button for Pumps 2 and 3 will either turn the pumps ON or OFF.
For more details on pump operations, or other buttons on the Top Side Control Switch, please cons ult your Aquatic Fitness Systems Owner’s Manual.
12
HydroSport

Using the Diverter Valve

The Diverter Valve controls water movement for Pump 1. It is located near the steps, at the rear of the Aquatic Fitness Systems. When Pump 1 is ON, the water flow can be adjusted toward either the HydroTherapy Jets or to the Swim Jets, depending on the position of the Diverter Valve.
Turning the Diverter Valve “clockwise” starts the water flowing toward the HydroTherapy Jets or the Swim Jets – depending on which model you have. When th e valve is fu lly turned, all the water will flow in that direction. Turn the Diverter Valve “counter-clockwise” to reverse the direction.
The AquaFit Dual Temp does not have a Diverter Valve because the HydroTherapy Jets in the Spa have their own separate motor.
13
HydroSport

Adjusting Air Flow

In addition to controlling the amount of high volume water that is directed to the Swi m Jets, you can also control how much air is added to the water. There are two Air Selector Switches located at the front of each Aquatic Fitness Systems. One controls the upper row of Swim Jets and the other one controls the lower row. The window in the Air Selector tells you how much air is being mixed with the water.
By controlling the amount of air to be mixed with the water moving through the Swim Jets, you can create a wide array of dynamics for your exercise programs or simple swimming pleasure.
14
HydroSport
In addition, you may also change the angle of the water flow to alter the dynamics slightly. The volume of the water flow is controlled by how many pumps you have working and how much air has been added to the water flow.
An experienced adult swimmer should always accompany inexperienced swimmers, non­swimmers, and children.
Never exercise alone. Always have someone close by in case of fatigue, accident or injury. When you are exercising, or simply relaxing, in “water” the risks of injury while being alone are increased. If you become incapacitated for any reason, and do not have someone available to help, you could drown.
The design specifications for the lower row of Swim Jets includes a slight angle upward t o aid buoyancy, in addition to increasing resistance, during your exercises
