PROPER USAGE
There are four phases to the rowing stroke:
1. CATCH – Grasp the handle evenly with both
hands. With the seat slid forward and the knees
tucked into the chest (directly in line with the
heel of the foot), stretch the arms out in front
and lean slightly forward from the hips.
2. DRIVE – Press rmly against the foot plates until the
legs are fully extended, but not locked. Let the arms
come with you and bring the torso to 90 degrees.
3. FINISH – Pull the arms into the abdomen
with legs fully extended, and lean back with
the torso slightly beyond 90 degrees.
4. RECOVERY – Extend the arms, bend
the knees, and lean forward from the
hips and slid forward on the seat.
WIRELESS HEART RATE RECEIVER (OXFORD 6)
When used in conjunction with a wireless chest transmitter
(sold separately), your heart rate can be transmitted
wirelessly to the unit and displayed on the console.
WARNING!

POWER ACCURACY
This rower displays power on the console. The power accuracy of this model has been tested using the test method of EN957-7:1998 to ensure a power accuracy within a tolerance of ±10 %
for input power ≥50 W, and within a tolerance of ±5 W for input power <50 W.
Force applied to the handle was measured throughout the rowing stroke, as well as the stroke position of the handle. This information was used to calculate the energy applied to the rower,
and the value of the energy calculation was divided by the period of exercise time to calculate the average mechanical power (the input power) applied to the rower. The power accuracy of
the displayed power was verified by calculating this input power and comparing the displayed power to the input (measured) power using the following conditions:
Nominal stroke length: 792 mm
Resistance settings:
•
Minimum resistance setting at nominal stroke speed of 25 strokes per minute
•
Medium resistance setting at nominal stroke speed of 25 strokes per minute
•
Maximum resistance setting at nominal stroke speed of 25 strokes per minute
In addition to the above testing conditions, the manufacturer tested the power accuracy using one additional resistance setting and nominal stroke speed. Then the power displayed was
compared to the input (measured) power.

PROGRAM INFORMATION
MANUAL: Adjust your resistance level manually during workout. User sets time.
RACE: User chooses the difficulty of the RACE game. Options include BEGINNER
(500M in 3:00), INTERMEDIATE (2,000M in 12:00) and ADVANCED (5,000M in 30:00).
DISTANCE: Push yourself and go further during your workout with
7 distance workouts. Choose from 500M, 1,000M, 2,000M, 4,000M,
5,000M, 6,000M and 10,000M. User sets starting resistance level.
TARGET HEART RATE: % Maximum Target Heart Rate (%THR) automatically
adjusts resistance to bring you within 5 beats of your set % of maximum heart
rate. Target Heart Rate (THR) automatically adjusts resistance to maintain your
target heart rate. These workouts require you to wear a wireless heart rate strap.
The first step in knowing the right intensity for your training is to find out your
maximum heart rate (max HR = 220 – your age). The age-based method provides
an average statistical prediction of your max HR and is a good method for the
majority of people, especially those new to heart rate training. The most precise
and accurate way of determining your individual max HR is to have it clinically
tested by a cardiologist or exercise physiologist through the use of a maximal
stress test. If you are over the age of 40, overweight, have been sedentary for
several years, or have a history of heart disease in your family, clinical testing
is recommended. This chart gives examples of the heart rate range for a
30-year-old exercising at 5 different heart rate zones. For example, a 30-yearold’s max HR is 220 – 30 = 190 bpm and 90% max HR is 190 × 0.9 = 171 bpm.

PERFORMANCE INTERVALS: Effective weight loss workouts that helps you improve
your fitness level. Choose from Speed Intervals and Endurance Intervals.
TRAINING INTERVALS: User selects the number of intervals and then time or
distance WORK and REST intervals to create a custom Intervals program.
FAT BURN: Promotes weight loss by increasing and decreasing the resistance.
Target heart rate notes:
• Warm-up and cool-down each last 4 minutes.
• After 4 minutes, the resistance will automatically adjust
to bring you near your specified heart rate.
• If no heart rate is detected or signal is lost, the resistance will remain at
the same level for 60 seconds and then begin decreasing 1 resistance
level every 10 seconds until the minimum resistance is reached.
• If your heart rate is 25 beats over your target zone the program will shut down.
TROUBLESHOOTING
COMMON PRODUCT QUESTIONS
ARE THE SOUNDS MY ROWER MAKES NORMAL?
Our rowers are some of the quietest available because they use belt drives
and friction free magnetic resistance. We use the highest grade bearings and
belts to minimize noise. However, because the resistance system itself is so
quiet, you will occasionally hear other slight mechanical noises. Unlike older,
louder technologies, there are no fans, friction belts, or alternator noises
to mask these sounds on our rowers. These mechanical noises, which may
or may not be intermittent, are normal and are caused by the transfer of
significant amounts of energy to a rapidly spinning flywheel. All bearings, belts
and other rotating parts will generate some noise which will transmit through
the casing and frame. It is also normal for these sounds to change slightly
during a workout and over time because of thermal expansion of the parts.
WHY IS THE ROWER I HAD DELIVERED LOUDER
THAN THE ONE AT THE STORE?
All fitness products seem quieter in a large store showroom because
there is generally more background noise than in your home.
Also, there will be less reverberation on a carpeted concrete floor
than on a wood overlay floor. Sometimes a heavy rubber mat will
help reduce reverberation through the floor. If a fitness product
is placed close to a wall, there will be more reflected noise.
HOW LONG WILL THE DRIVE BELT LAST?
The computer modeling we have done indicated virtually thousands
of maintenance free hours. Belts are now commonly used in far
more demanding applications such as motorcycle drives.
CAN I MOVE THE ROWER EASILY ONCE IT IS ASSEMBLED?
Your rower has a pair of transport wheels built into the front stabilizer tube.
Please follow the MOVING THE ROWER section to transport your rower. It
is important that you place your rower in a comfortable and inviting room.
Your rower is designed to use minimal floor space. Many people will place
their rowers facing the TV or a picture window. If at all possible, avoid
putting your rower in an unfinished basement. To make exercise a desirable
daily activity for you, the rower should be in a comfortable setting.
NEED ASSISTANCE?
If this troubleshooting section does not remedy the
problem, discontinue use and turn the power off.
Please reference contact
information on the INFORMATION
CARD for assistance.
The following information may be asked of you when
you call. Please have these items readily available:
• Model Name
• Serial Number
• Proof of Purchase (receipt or credit card statement)
Some common troubleshooting questions
that may be asked are:
• How long has this problem been occurring?
• Does this problem occur with every
use? With every user?
• If you are hearing a noise, does it come from
the front or the back? What kind of noise is it
(thumping, grinding, squeaking, chirping etc.)?
• Has the machine been maintained per
the MAINTENANCE schedule?
Answering these and other questions will
give the technicians the ability to send proper
replacement parts and the service necessary to
get you and your elliptical running again!
