FRAME AND FRONT FRAME
Your choice shows that you really want to invest in your well being and condition; it also shows you really value high quality and style. With Tunturi Fitness Equipment, you’ve chosen a high quality, safe and motivating product as your training partner. Whatever your goal in training, we are certain this is the training equipment to get you there. You’ll find information about using your exercise equipment and what makes for efficient training at Tunturi’s website at
WWW.TUNTURI.COM.
ASSEMBLY
Start by unpacking the equipment and check that you have the following parts:
1. Frame and front frame
2. Assembly kit (contents marked with in the spare
part list): keep the assembly tools, as you may need them e.g. for adjusting the equipment.
If necessary, please contact your dealer with the model, equipment serial no. and spare part no. of the missing part. You’ll find a spare part list at the back of this guide. The packaging includes a silicate bag for absorbing moisture during storage and transportation. Please dispose of the bag once you have unpacked the equipment. The directions left, right, front and back are defined as seen from the exercising position.
Turn the front frame bent over the frame up and forward. Attach the front frame to the frame with three screws on both sides: the lowest retaining screw is already in place. Tighten all retaining screws tight. Press the plastic plugs to retaining screw ends.
CONSOLE
Remove the protective cover from the console.
3
Turn the console carefully away from the front frame so that you can remove the battery compartment cover in the back of the console. Open the battery compartment cover carefully from its lower edge. Be careful not to damage the wires. Set the batteries (2 x 1.5V AA) in their place according to the markings in the battery compartment. Reattach the cover and adjust the angle of the console appropriately for exercise.
SEAT
Cut the seat's packaging lock.
EXERCISING
Rowing is a very effective form of exercise. In addition to strengthening the heart and improving circulation, it develops the various groups of large muscles: the back, the abdomen, the arms, the shoulders as well as the pelvis and the legs. Rowing also develops muscular flexibility without exertion of joints, and it is a recommended form of exercise for those who suffer from pains in the neck and shoulder area. Working out using a rowing machine is excellent aerobic exercise, the principle being that the exercise should be suitably light, but of long duration. Aerobic exercise is based on improving the body’s maximum oxygen uptake, which in turn improves endurance and fitness. The ability of the body to burn fat as a fuel is directly dependent on its oxygen-uptake capacity.
Aerobic exercise should above all be pleasant. You should perspire, but you should not get out of breath during the workout.
You should exercise at least three times a week, 30 minutes at a time, to reach a basic fitness level. Maintaining this level requires a few exercise sessions each week. Once the basic condition has been reached, it is easily improved, simply by increasing the number of exercise sessions.
Exercise is always rewarding for weight loss, because it is the only way of increasing the energy spent by the body. This is why it is always worthwhile to combine regular exercise with a healthy diet. A dieter should exercise daily
- at first 30 minutes or less at a time, gradually increasing the daily workout time to one hour. You should start slowly and at low resistance,
R30
because strenuous exercise may subject the heart and circulatory system to excessive strain. As fitness improves, resistance and speed can be increased gradually.
Short sequences at heavy load increase maximum strength and muscular mass, longer sequences at a lighter load trim the body and develop stamina. First find your maximum heart rate i.e. where the
OWNER'S MANUAL
rate doesn’t increase with added effort. If you don’t know your maximum heart rate, please use the following formula as a guide:
220 - AGE
These are average values and the maximum varies from person to person. The maximum heart-rate diminishes on average by one point per year. If you belong to a risk group, ask a doctor to measure your maximum heart rate for you.
We have defined three different heart-rate zones to help you with targeted training.
BEGINNER: 50-60 % of maximum heart-rate
Also suitable for weight-watchers, convalescents and those who haven’t exercised for a long time. Three sessions a week of at least a half-hour each is recommended. Regular exercise considerably improves beginners’ respiratory and circulatory performance and you will quickly feel your improvement.
TRAINER: 60-70 % of maximum heart-rate
Perfect for improving and maintaining fitness. Even reasonable effort develops the heart and lungs effectively, training for a minimum of 30 minutes at least three times a week. To improve your condition still further, increase either frequency or effort, but not both at the same time!
ACTIVE TRAINER: 70-80 % of maximum heart-rate
Exercise at this level suits only the fittest and presupposes long-endurance workouts.
USE
ADJUSTING RESISTANCE
You can increase or decrease resistance by turning the adjuster knob on the front frame. Turn the adjustment knob clockwise (+ direction) to increase resistance and counterclockwise (- direction) to decrease resistance. The scale above the knob (1-8) helps you find and reset a suitable resistance.
TELEMETRIC HEART RATE MEASUREMENT
The console has a heart rate receiver compatible with Polar equipment, so you can also use Polar uncoded heart rate belts for heart rate measurement. The most reliable heart rate measurement is achieved with a telemetric device, in which the electrodes of the transmitter fastened to the chest transmit the pulses from the heart to the console by means of an electromagnetic field.
NOTE! If you are fitted with a pacemaker, please
consult a physician before using a wireless heart rate monitor.

If you want to measure your heart rate this way during your workout, moisten the grooved electrodes on the transmitter belt with saliva or water. Fasten the transmitter just below the chest with the elastic belt, firmly enough so that the electrodes remain in contact with the skin while exercising, but not so tight that normal breathing is prevented. Attach the transmitter and adjust the flexible belt to an appropriate tightness below chest level so that the electrodes are in contact with the skin during exercise. If you wear the transmitter and belt over a light shirt, moisten the shirt slightly at the points where the electrodes touch the shirt. The transmitter automatically transmits the heart rate reading to the console up to a distance of about 1 m.
If the electrode surfaces are not moist, the heart­rate reading will not appear on the display. If the electrodes are dry, they must be moistened again. Allow the electrodes warm up properly to ensure accurate heart rate measurement. The transmitter is switched to an active state only when it is being used for measurement. Sweat and other moisture can, however, keep the transmitter in an active state and waste battery energy. Therefore it is important to dry the electrodes carefully after use.
OWNER'S MANUAL • R30
Tighten the footstraps. Take a grip on the bar and start the rowing stroke by leaning slightly forward, with the knees bent and the arms straight. Push yourself backwards straightening your back and your legs simultaneously. Continue the movement until you lean slightly backwards and flex your armsat the same time. Return to the starting position, lean forward and straighten your arms.
BICEPS (ELBOW FLEXORS)
GB
When selecting training attire, please note that some fibers used in clothes (e.g. polyester, polyamide) create static electricity, which may prevent reliable heart rate measurement. Please note that a mobile phone, television and other electrical appliances form an electromagnetic field around them, which will cause problems in heart rate measurement.
ROWING MOTION
You can develop the biceps while rowing by taking an undergrasp of the bar or in the following way: grasp the bar from underneath, keep your knees straight and your feet under the footstraps. Begin the movement with your arms straight. Bend your arms. You can also develop your biceps by standing in front of the device, grasping either over or under the bar and bending your arms .
