ADJUSTMENTS / MAINTENANCE / STORAGE

Figure 21

Figure 23

CHANGING THE ROTATION ADJUSTMENT SETTING

• Shorten the Main Shaft and rotate the Table Bed opposite
from use into its storage position. Leave the A-frame open
and locked at the spreader arms (Figure 21).

• The Pinlock Knobs serve two functions:

- As a “de-rattler” to prevent excess
movement of the support arms (Figure 22A)

-

As a “spring-loaded pinlock” to engage the

Rotation Adjustment Setting (Figure 22B).

• First, loosen the “de-rattler” function of the Pinlock Knobs by
rotating them counterclockwise. Then pull the knobs up to
disengage the pin and rotate counterclockwise to lock them
in the “out” position.

• Move the Support Housing along the Rotation Adjustment

Arms to the desired setting using the line markings as a
guide. Rotate the pin clockwise to release the lock and allow
the pin to engage a hole. You will hear a click when the pin
is properly engaged.

NOTE: Engage Pinklock Knobs in same setting for each of
the Rotation Adjustment Arms.

• Turn the Pinlock Knobs clockwise to re-engage the
de-rattler function.

• Rotate the Table Bed back to its use position and extend
the Main Shaft to your preferred setting.

MAINTENANCE

• To clean the Table Bed, wipe down with a damp cloth.
Do not use abrasive cleaners.

STORING THE INVERSION TABLE

• Loosen the Main Shaft De-Rattler Knob. Pull the
height-selector locking pin, slide the Main Shaft in
all the way, and engage the pin in the storage setting.

• Rotate the table opposite from use until the table has turned
180 degrees and rests against the Crossbar on the A-frame.

• Pull up on the Spreader Arms to fold the A-frame (Figure 23)

NOTE: This operation may pinch ngers if not done slowly

and carefully.

Option: instead of rotating to lock pins in

the “out” position, simply pull the knobs up,

slide, and release into your desired setting.

WARNING

!

Tipping Hazard: For upright storage, leave A-Frame open
wide enough to remain stable, or secure the the wall to
prevent tipping. In households with small children, the

table should be stored at on the oor, not upright.

Step Seven

Install the Front Foam Rollers (F5-1051)

• Slide the Foam rollers over each side of
the Front Ankle Bar (Figure 17).

TIP: Rotate the Front Foam Rollers up and

down repeatedly while pushing onto the

bar for easier assembly.

• Insert the black plugs (F5-1056) into each
open end of the Front Ankle Bar if they are
not already assembled (Figure 17A).

Step Eight

Attach the Tether Strap (F5-1007) to Limit
the Degree of Rotation

• Hook the clip at the end of the Tether Strap
to the loop at the base of the Table Bed
(Figure 18). This assists in limiting your
degree of rotation.

• Tighten or loosen the strap to restrict or
extend the degree of rotation.

Step Nine

Attach the Head Pillow and Owner’s Manual

• Attach the Head Pillow by securing the
Velcro straps through the holes in the
Table Bed – the position of the pillow can
be adjusted depending on the user
(Figure 19).

• Hang the Owner’s Manual over one of the

handles for future reference (Figure 20).

of your new Teeter Hang Ups inversion table.

Step Six

Insert the Main Shaft (NX-1600) into the
Table Bed (NX-1300)

• Ensure that the A-frame is fully open and
locked at the Spreader Arms.

• Rotate the Table Bed into its use position
(Figure 15).

• Loosen the Main Shaft De-rattler Knob at
the base of the Main Shaft Housing.

• With the height adjustment settings on the

Main Shaft facing up, insert the end of the
Main Shaft into the Main Shaft Housing at
the base of the Table Bed.

• Pull out the Height Selector Locking Pin to
allow the Main Shaft to slide in further, then
release the pin to engage a hole. (Refer
to the Owner’s Manual for proper height

adjustment before use.)

Note: The De-rattler Knob is an optional
feature that prevents a slight shift

when you invert. Product security is not

compromised if you choose to not tighten
the knob.

• The Main Shaft must rest against the
Crossbar of the A-frame (Figure 16). The
Crossbar prevents the table from rotating
forward when the user steps on the Foot
Platform. If the Main Shaft does not rest
on the Crossbar as shown in Figure 16
then the Table Bed has been assembled
backwards onto the A-frame and this must
be corrected before use.

Step One

Attach the Support Beam to the Table
Bed (NX-1300).

• Place the Table Bed face down on the oor.

Push down on the Support Beam so that
the two holes align evenly with the holes
at the base of the Upper Support Arms
(Figure 1).

NOTE: You may have to exert extra
pressure to ensure that the Support Beam
slides over the Rubber Spacers.

• Insert the two bolts (EP-1128) into the open
holes.

• Fasten each bolt with the washer and nut
(EP-1128).

• Using the Allen Wrench (EP-1128) to
steady the bolts, tighten the nut onto the
bolt with the larger wrench (F5-1088)
(Figure 2). Repeat with second bolt.

Step Five

Attach the Crossbrace (NX-1400) to the
Rotation Adjustment Arms

• Remove the pre-assembled bolts from the
Crossbrace.

• Align the holes in the Crossbrace with the

last hole on the Rotation Adjustment Arms

(Figure 12).

• Re-insert the bolts and secure with the
washers and nuts, tightening with the
wrenches provided (IA-1149 & IA-1147)
(Figure 13).

• Turn the Pinlock Knobs clockwise to
re-engage the “de-rattler” function
(Figure 14).

Step Two

Assemble the Table Bed (NX-1300) to the
A-frame Base (NX-1100)

• Position the A-frame on the oor with the
crossbar pointing down, so that the frame

is resting on the Rotation Adjustment Arms

(Figure 3).

• With the Table Bed face up and the top of
the bed pointing to the A-frame feet, slide it
on the oor between the legs of the
A-frame.

• Loosen the “de-rattler” function of
the Pinlock Knobs by turning each
counterclockwise (Figure 4).

• Align and insert the Rotation Adjustment

Arms into the Support Housings (Figure 5).

• Pull out both spring-loaded Pinlock Knobs
and pull up to align the Support Housing
with one of the marked settings on the

Rotation Adjustment Arms.

• Release the knobs so that they engage a
hole setting (Figure 6). Should the knobs
be locked in the “out” position, simply
rotate clockwise to release (Figure 7).

Note: Refer to the Owner’s Manual for an

explanation of the hole settings. If you are
unsure, use Setting C (Figure 6) to start.

Step Three

Attach the Handles (NX-1500) to the A-frame
Base (NX-1100)

• To assemble the Handles, leave the
inversion table in this position.

• Remove the pre-assembled bolts from the
Handles.

• Fit each Handle over the A-frame legs,
aligning with the pre-drilled holes
(Figure 8).

• Re-insert the bolts and secure with the
nuts, tightening with the Allen Wrenches
provided (IA-1149) (Figure 8A).

Step Four

Stand the Inversion Table Upright

• To stand the inversion table upright, rst move

the A-frame onto its side (Figure 9), and then
carefully lift it up onto its feet (Figure 10).

• Use the handles to open the A-frame wide
enough so that it is stable and can stand
upright on its own (Figure 11).

• Leave the table in this position for Step Five
of the assembly.
