1.1 ERGO-FIT strength equipment at a glance

ERGO-FIT’s POWER LINE 4000 range consists of strength training machines designed for building up all relevant muscle groups. ERGO-FIT strength training machines offer you the best training options, regardless of your age, gender, or fitness level.

Among others, the eccentric technique, integrated beverage holders, and the concentration on functional aspects are highlights of the whole product line. In addition, it is the ease of use and the customisation that demonstrate ERGO-FIT’s focus: A high technical standard, optimal training possibilities and precise training control, combined with customer-friendly ease of use.

However, technology alone is not all that is required to develop outstanding training machines. They also need to meet biomechanical and sports medical requirements. Priority is given to the human being. Thus, a sophisticated training and testing system can only be developed by combining technical electronic expertise with the latest advances in sports medicine and coaching science. ERGO-FIT clearly met this target.

Our POWER LINE 4000/4000 S is especially designed for fitness purposes, whereas POWER LINE 4000 MED/4000 S MED is designed to meet medical targets.

The lifetime of the equipment is 6 years.

EN 957-2: 7.2 b) Please note that the exercise machine may only be used in areas where access and supervision are controlled by the owner. The extent of this supervision depends on the users, i.e. degree of reliability, age, experience etc.

Advantages and benefits Regular training on these machines prevents malpositions from day-to-day life, associated arthrosis of the spinal column as well as muscle tension, and will increase personal performance even at an advanced age. Your workout machine represents an indispensable tool in injury prevention and rehabilitation. You will feel fit, more powerful, more attractive, and more balanced.

You will also need these data in case of guarantee claims.

The following symbols designate important information:

Caution

Danger!

Hint!

It is absolutely necessary to observe this warning in order to avert any danger to your life or health..

It is absolutely necessary to observe this warning in order to avoid any material damage.

Important information and hints are displayed here to improve operations.

2.1 What you need to know when using your training machine

⊗ Please read the owner’s manual carefully before using your new ERGO-FIT

exercise machine.

⊗ Familiarise yourself with the machine before you start it.

⊗ Only use the machine after a proper function test (see chapter 6.3 for more

information). For your own safety and before every use, please check the machine for damage (loose screws, worn parts, cords etc). If the machine is damaged, do not use it before it is repaired.

⊗ In order to reduce any risk during training, please put on sportswear and the

appropriate footwear.

POWER LINE 4000

⊗ In case of nausea, dizziness, pain in the chest, limbs, joints or muscles, you

should stop the training immediately and see a doctor.

⊗ In case you have a cardiac pace maker or are affected, suffer from joint or

spinal column arthrosis or orthopaedic injuries, or if you have a health condition, please consult your doctor before using the training machine. If this is the case, you should discuss the training program with him.

⊗ Do not hold your breath during training, as this causes a reduced blood flow to

and from the brain and an increase in blood pressure. When muscle training, it is important to breathe out during strain (i.e. the phase when the weight is lifted) ant to breathe in during relaxation (i.e. when the weight is lowered).

⊗ Your training machine is not a toy! Never leave children unattended with the

machine. Children cannot always assess possible danger. Parents or other supervisors should always be aware of their responsibility because children’s natural play instinct and eagerness to experiment may produce situations and behaviour the training machine is not designed for.

⊗ The machine may be used after instruction of a supervisor only. The machine

must not be used without the presence of a supervisor.

⊗ Make sure that persons who stand close to the machine are not hit by moving

parts.

EN 957-2: 7.2 c) If the exercise machine is featured as described in 5.4.1.3.2 (snapon weights without cover), the user should always be able to see the machine during workout. The user always needs to see the snap-on weights to avoid any danger to others.

⊗ If you are lying or sitting on a towel, please make sure that it does not come in

contact with spinning or running parts of the machines.

⊗ When adjusting the height of the seat, backrest or footrest, please make sure to

retighten the fasteners after individual adjustment of the optimal position. Otherwise, there is a risk of injury.

⊗ Do not put your hands between the snap-on weights. Otherwise, there is a risk

of injury.

⊗ Only use the included dowel pins for adjusting the weights. Make sure to insert

the dowel pins completely into the borings of the snap-on weights.

⊗ Warm up thoroughly before training. Start the training slowly and gradually

increase the intensity until you reach the desired strain degree within your range of control.

⊗ Never start power training with the maximum strain. Increase its intensity slowly

with light weights to get used to the right motion sequence and familiarise your body to the unaccustomed strain. If you set the strain too high in the beginning, you might injure or damage your musculoskeletal system.

⊗ Note that physical fatigue reduces coordination and increases the risk of

Safety information

injury.

⊗ Please pay attention to the correct use of the triceps rope. Always clasp the rope

with both hands. Never hold and tear at only one end of the rope due to risk of

injury.

⊗ Carefully lower the weights during the workout. They must not be thrown since

any impact may damage the weights.

⊗ During the training do not touch the USB port, the RS232 port or the audio

port.

⊗ Please review the additional safety and operational notices in this manual.

All safety instructions in this manual are based on many years of experience and

selfconception.

2.2 Operational safety – what needs to be done

⊗ After delivery, make sure that the machine has not been damaged during

transport. In case of doubt, do not start the machine and contact the customer service.

⊗ Regularly check the cable, wires, steel cable and cable clamp for damage.

⊗ Do not place beverages on your training machine. Instead, use the bottle holder

which is specially designed for beverages.

⊗ Set up the training machine so that there is sufficient open space around it. This

reduces risks to the trainee as well as other people around.

2.3 Choosing the right place of installation

⊗ The machine can be set up on any level and stable floor. Make sure that it

stands firmly on the floor.

⊗ Never put wood, cardboard or similar materials underneath the machine to

compensate surface unevennesses. This increases the risk of an accident.

2.4 What needs to be considered in case of repair

⊗ Electric parts must be replaced with original equipment only.

⊗ Repairs must be carried out by a qualified technician only. If you do not have the

necessary qualifications, ask the ERGO-FIT Service Center

POWER LINE 4000

2.5 What should be avoided

⊗ Only use the machine for the purposes it is designed for. If you use the ERGOFIT

machine improperly, you will be charged for all damages resulting from this. Any guarantee claim will be excluded!

⊗ Never use the machine in any other way than for those purposes described in

this manual. Improper use can damage the machine and be hazardous to your health.

⊗ Caution! There is a risk of injury if moving parts are used improperly.

⊗ You should never exercise on a damaged machine.

⊗ When exercising, you should never try to exceed your current performance

level. This can seriously damage your health.

⊗ Always connect the machine to the power supply before using it.

⊗ You should never prop up your body on the machine and make improper

movements.

A summary of the most important safety information can be found in Appendix A of this manual. You should remove this summary and display it near the machine where it is clearly visible. All users of the machine must be informed of the dangers and safety regulations. The manufacturer will not be liable for personal injury or material damage.

Chapter 3: Short manual

Please note:

This owner’s manual contains information on multiple gym machines.

There may be variations in detail according to the type of machine

Short manual

3 Short manual

After delivery of your power machine, please check first if the serial number (see type label) is identical with the one indicated on the delivery note and if all components listed in chapter 1.3 (“Scope of delivery”) are included in the delivery.

Only start your workout after performing a proper function test (see Chapter 6.5 for more information). Sit on the machine after this test and set your individual training weight. Seat areas (seat pads etc.) or restraints (foot roller etc.) may be adjusted easily with the pneumatic spring or snap-in mechanism.

⊗ Pneumatic spring mechanism: Lift the adjustment lever. The integrated

pneumatic spring will automatically lift the seat area or restraint. To lower the seat or the restraint, loosen the adjustment lever and push the seat downwards into the desired position with the help of your body weight. To lock the seat or restraint at the desired height, bring the adjustment lever back to its initial position.

Depending on the user weight the pneumatic spring will go down up to 120mm. This might affect the position number reading. After you have set the pad or the stabilizer as described above, rise from the machine so your body weight does not impact the pad or stabilizer. Now you can read the position number.

⊗ Snap-in mechanism: Pull the dowel pin out of the punched matrix. Pull the seat

area or restraint up or down. To lock the seat area or restraint at the desired height, let the dowel pin snap-in again.

Note that the seat is a standard seat. This means that every adjustable seat has the same snap-in positions. On some exercise machines, not all snap-in positions may be usable.

Exercise machines with eccentric technique (e.g. LEG EXTENSION 4000) are equipped with adjustable strain levers. Pull out the dowel pin and adjust the strain as desired.

During training make sure to use the following exercise technique: Breathe out during the strain sequence and breathe in during the relaxing sequence. The motions should be carried out slowly. Avoid jerky movements. If you want to stop the workout, control the downward motion of the weights. The exercise is finished only when the training weight is resting.

Transport and Setup

5 Transport and Setup

5.1 Transport

In order to avoid damage, ERGO-FIT machines are transported by ERGO-FIT GmbH & Co. KG directly or by an authorised freight forwarding company. After delivery, packaging will be collected and disposed of professionally. If ERGO-FIT machines are delivered by a freight forwarder, the customer needs to dispose of the packaging himself or can send it back to ERGO-FIT GmbH & Co. KG (the customer is responsible for the transportation costs).

The machines do not have any shipping locks!

5.2 Setup and the right place for setup

1. Make sure that the surface underneath the machine is flat and level.

2. The machines are mounted and set up directly by the manufacturer or an

authorised service technician. Only this way can a safe and proper function of the machine be guaranteed.

Any guarantee claim will be excluded if the machine is assembled or disassembled by the purchaser or another non-authorised person.

3. For safety reasons make sure to provide enough free space around the machine

so the exerciser can move freely and bystanders are not injured by moving parts: Depending on the mounting direction of the machine the free area must exceed the exercise area by 0.6m. This area is also needed for emergency disassembly. Adjacent machines can use the same free area.

Please note:

There may be variations in detail according to the type of machine!

Start up

6 Start up

Connect the machine to a dedicated power supply (110...220VAC) and avoid using an extension cord or a multi-outlet power strip. If necessary, please EN 60601-1 extension cords or power strips. After switching on the machine have to wait 35 minutes before you can use the machine. During this warm-up period you can adjust the weight plates. After the warm-up period the weight plates should be correctly displayed in the Cockpit. You can now start your workout. We recommend DC-isolated cables for the connection of external equipment to a POWER LINE 4000 MED machine

6.1 Calibrating the Weight Plates

Before any new calibration/re-calibration of the weight plates you have to consider a warm-up period of 35 minutes. The warm-up period starts as soon as you switch on the machine. Re-calibration is only possible after the warm-up period has finished. Otherwise the weight plates may be displayed incorrectly in the Cockpit or may adjust automatically.

Note: The workout machine with laser sensor is a precision measuring instrument. But even here you have to consider measuring tolerances due to environmental factors (temperature changes, operation time etc.). Therefore, we recommend to check the functionality of the machine regularly. In case of a the weight plate difference you have to perform a re-calibration.

6.2 Resistance adjustment

On all machines of the POWER LINE4000 series the resistance can be adjusted by adding or reducing the number of snap-on weights. Dowel pins are used to adjust the weight by inserting them into the borings in the snap-on weights. The weights may be chosen directly from the machine.

When adjusting, consider the following aspects: ⊗ You can only adjust the weights when the weight bundle is not under tensile

stress and the snap-on weights are resting firmly. Accordingly, you should avoid modifying the training weight during a motion sequence.

⊗ Make sure to insert the dowel pins completely. If this is not the case, the pins

might loosen during motion. The snap-on weights can fall on the weight bundle and this might damage the weights or injure the trainee because of jerky removal of the load.

⊗ To secure the weights, insert the dowel pins straight into the borings. Otherwise,

the dowel pins might tilt during motion.

⊗ Do not put your hands between the snap-on weights. Otherwise, there is a risk

POWER LINE 4000

 of injury.

⊗ Do not let the weights impact on the weight bundle during and after exercise.

Always make sure that the weights fall smoothly on the bundle.

6.3 Eccentric function

When designing strength training machines, strength curves are often made use of. The aim of considering strength curves is to ensure the correct and targetted adjustment of the resistance for the respective abilities of the muscle to be trained. This means concretely that training stimuli can be used optimally by almost all parts of a muscle.

The technological aid for this purpose is the eccentric technique. The eccentric is connected with the rotation axis of the exercise machine via which the load of the training weight is transferred to the lever arm (moment arm) that is moved by the trainee. The set weight is transferred to the outer border of the eccentric disc via a flat belt.

The edge of the eccentric does not form a concentric radius (constant distance between outer edge and rotation axis) around the rotation point of the disc but an eccentric radius (variable distance between outer edge and rotation axis). The distance between the respective surface location of the weight plate (load) and the rotation point determines the length of the lever arm with which the weight pulls the plate. This distance is called the load arm. In contrast, the length of the lever arm (against which the trainee works) determines the so-called moment arm. According to

Eccentric (example: LEG EXTENSION 4000)

transferred via a long load arm to the rotation axis and vice versa (i.e. via a point of the disc with a longer distance to the rotation point). Thus, the maximum strain on the muscles may be realised by a high torque already at the beginning of the motion and will be maintained almost until the final position is reached.

the lever principle (Load x load arm = moment x moment arm), an eccentric transfers a high torque (more load) on the rotation axis if the weight is

To meet individual needs, the moment arm may be adjusted in relation to the eccentric to allow for strain adjustment by modifying the link positions.

Some machines of the POWER LINE 4000 are not equipped with an eccentric. This is due to the vertical (LAT PULL 4000, SHOULDER ABDUCTION 4000, SHOULDER

Start up

PRESS 4000) or horizontal (CHEST PRESS 4000, LEG PRESS 4000) exercise motion.

6.4 Function test

Function test: How to proceed: ⊗ Check if all handling parts are locked properly before training. Make sure there

are no loose or badly mounted handling parts.

⊗ Check the cable and wires for damage.

⊗ Check moving parts (steel cables, rollers) for proper function.

⊗ Check the rests and paddings for damage.

⊗ Check if all adjustable parts function properly.

Training

7 Training

7.1 The effect of training

The demands of today’s lifestyle in modern societies are not enough to remain in good physical condition. Increasing automation and mechanisation involve an increasing number of activities limited to fine motor skills. This development includes everyday life. Physical inactivity inevitably leads to physical deterioration.

Muscle power allows the human being to stand up against gravity and to carry out movements. However, general prejudices against strength training have suppressed the importance of its promotion and preservation so far. Recent studies show that physical inactivity leads to postural deficiencies, muscle weakness and osteoporosis. A lack of muscle power activities is the cause of this. This leads to malpositions, and these lead to overstraining of the muscles, ligaments and the skeletal system. Irreparable damage to the muscular-skeletal system is the long-term consequence.

Strength training has the potential to counteract this physical deterioration. The effect of strength training is – depending on the target and the fitness - a general increase in power in individual muscles, muscle groups or the entire skeletal muscles with and without muscle growth (muscular hypertrophy). Furthermore, it creates a physical base for the exertion of sports or physical activities, counteracts physical inactivity and related effects, and allows for a faster recovery of working abilities after injuries. In addition, it has a positive indirect effect on the psyche and the appearance. You will feel fit, more agile, and more attractive.

Muscle activity releases energy. This energy is converted into warmth. The body gets warmer. To avoid overheating, the body counteracts this mechanism through perspiration. However, loss of liquid reduces physical capabilities. Sports physicians recommend a regular fluid intake during training to counteract this effect.

7.2 Strain parameters

The following aspects are relevant for general fitness purposes: muscle building training (growth of muscle diametre, increase in maximum strength, firming body tissue) and maintenance of strength performance (strength endurance training: increasing fatigue resistance during stress, firming body tissue).

The general strain levels are:

40-60 60-80

Beginner Advanced

40-60 60-80

7.3 Training routine – aspects to be considered

If you exercise for the first time or restart training after a longer break, your training routine should include the following stages (example):

1. Warmup: Carry out a general cardio vascular training (e.g. walking, running, cycling) for 10-15 minutes to prepare your body for the upcoming strain.

2. Stretching: Then stretch those muscle groups you are going to strain during workout.

3. Main routine: Now start your actual strength training and try to complete your training target. Carry out a warmup on the exercise machine before each exercise sequence to specifically prepare the muscles for the upcoming strain (low intensity, high number of repetitions).

Training

7.4 Training tips

General

⊗ If you perform an exercise for the first time, work with little or no weight to

familiarise yourself with the motion sequence. Only increase the intensity when you have perfect control over the respective exercise.

⊗ Exercise systematically. Make up a training schedule or have somebody else do

it for you.

⊗ Have someone correct your training every now and then to counteract habitual

mistakes.

⊗ Choose strains that correspond to your current performance status. Avoid setting

strains too high. This might lead to an overstrain or injuries to your musculoskeletal system.

⊗ Modify the training routine regularly (at an interval of approx. 6 to 8 weeks). To

do so, you can change parameters such as the intensity, number of repetitions, duration of the breaks, training method or the choice of exercise. Lasting training effects will only be achieved by modifying the training routine.

⊗ Exercise regularly. However, allow sufficiently long recreational periods. Only

regular exercise combined with recovery phases leads to the desired effect.

Training mode

⊗ Do not hold your breath during training. Breathe out during the strain sequence

and breathe in during the relaxing sequence.

⊗ Exercise in an upright position. Avoid over-arching (hyperlordosis) your back.

⊗ Always keep your head in line with your spinal column.

⊗ Stabilise your hand joints (do not kink your wrists!).

⊗ Avoid jerky movements as this might lead to overstrain or injuries.

⊗ Stop the workout immediately if you feel a pain during exercise.

⊗ 4 Carefully lower the weights during the workout.

⊗ Maintain the training position described here for your entire workout.

7.5 Proper training technique

You should always take into account biomechanical considerations when you exercise. This is why we have listed aspects concerning this matter for each of the strength exercise machines in this chapter.

Maintenance

8 Maintenance

Regular, thorough care and appropriate maintenance in particular help preserve the value and extend the lifetime of your exercise machine. For this reason, we recommend regular preventive maintenance! Always switch off the machine for maintenance and cleaning!

These regular inspections are essential for compliance in case of guarantee claims.

In case of a malfunction, ERGO-FIT’s technicians and engineers are pleased to assist you.

Immediate maintenance is to be carried out if:

⊗ the machine has undergone extreme mechanical stress

⊗ steel cables, rollers, handles, levers or snap-on weights are damaged

Maintenance of the machine may be carried out by ERGO-FIT’s customer service department. A maintenance contract may also be implemented.

8.1 Care and maintenance

During manufacturing of its training machines, ERGO-FIT makes every effort to reduce future maintenance.

In the following chapters, some of the maintenance and inspection tasks are described. You should carry out these tasks regularly.

During maintenance, consider the following:

⊗ This machine requires very little maintenance.

⊗ Moving parts need no further oiling or greasing.

⊗ The chrome bars need to be cleaned with a dry cloth and sprayed with teflon

spray.

⊗ Before every use, check paddings, frame, flat belt, snap-on weights, handles

and levers for cracks or breaks.

⊗ Before every use, check if all fastenings are firmly tightened.

⊗ 1 Regularly check the correct position of the sensor connectors on 4000 S

machines.

⊗ Please lubricate the ropes monthly or as required. We recommend "Spray AT44

Allround Spray mit Teflon".

POWER LINE 4000

8.2 Cleaning

Sweat, dust particles and dirt will damage your exercise machine. This can be observed after only a few weeks. Metal and aluminium parts of your machine may alter its surfaces in combination with sweat. For this reason, you should clean your machine every day.

We recommend “Ecolab P3-steril” or “Scarabig” for cleaning. You can obtain these detergents at the following suppliers:

Ecolab Deutschland GmbH Reisholzer Werftstraße 38-42 Postfach 13 04 06 40554 Düsseldorf www.ecolab.com

SCARAPHARM chem.-pharm. Produkte GmbH Wachmannstraße 86 28209 Bremen www.scarapharm.de

During cleaning, consider the following aspects:

⊗ Clean your machine with a damp cloth, mild cleaning agent or soap suds only

and dry it with a soft cloth.

⊗ Regularly clean the lens and the display of the 4000 S sensor.

A.4 Warranty clauses

2 years warranty, full warranty of 4 years on request*

The seller shall be liable, to the exclusion of other liability, for deficiencies of the delivery, of which the absence of expressly affirmed properties is part, as follows:

1. All parts that are found to be unusable or restricted in use in consequence of a circumstance dated before the transfer of risk – notably because of faulty design, bad manufacturing material or faulty workmanship - shall be repaired or replaced during a period of 24 months after delivery. The decision if the fault will be repaired or should be replaced will be at the seller’s discretion. The supplier shall only be liable for deficiencies of drawings and materials delivered or chosen by the seller if he would have been able to recognise the deficiency when applying professional accuracy unless the seller notified the purchaser of the recognised deficiency immediately.

2. The purchaser’s right to claim ends in all cases after 24 months after transfer of the object.

3. No guarantee shall be assumed for damage as a result of inappropriate or improper use, faulty assembly or faulty startup carried out by the purchaser or a third party, natural wear, faulty or careless handling, inappropriate equipment or exchange work material, faulty construction works, chemical, electrochemical or electric influences, except in the event that they can be traced to the fault of the seller. The purchaser will assume all risks in connection with the delivery, even in case of free freight ex-factory.

4. Initially, the seller has the right to two rectifications or replacements. Should these fail, the purchaser has the right of abatement or rescission within the scope of valid legislation. The seller will have a period of six weeks as from communicating the notice of defect for rectification.

5. Improper modifications or repairs carried out on behalf of the purchaser or a third party without prior permission of the seller will abrogate warranty claims.

6. If goods are exported, warranty will be restricted to the availability of loose spare parts ex-factory within the warranty period. Packing costs, freight charge and labour will be at the expense of the purchaser. In case the purchaser demands site repair by a technician of the factory or another service address, the purchaser

Appendix

will assume the costs of travelling expenses and labour.

7. All merchandise that has not been produced by the seller is subject to legal provisions.

Wear parts are excluded from warranty specifications, e.g.:

⊗ Flat belt, steel cable, pull ropes

⊗ Snap-on weights

⊗ Dowel pins

⊗ Adjusting Lever

⊗ Paddings

⊗ cable-winch sensor

⊗ Seat, tread, handholds

The warranty is voided if maintenance instructions are not observed!
