ASSEMBLY

O W N E R ' S M A N U A L R 6 0 G B

The rowing machine is shipped in the locked storage position. Unlock the front tube’s latch under the seat and push the seat back. Push the front tube folded on the frame up and forward. Pull the locking pin up and press the front frame downward simultaneously by the pulley wheel cover. Release the locking pin and ensure that the front frame is in locked forward position.

Always tighten the locking pin before you begin to exercise.

CONSOLE

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. Press in the tab at the bottom of the cover to unlock it, then lift the cover up. Be careful not to damage the wires. Set the batteries (4 x C) in their place according to the markings in the battery compartment. Reattach the cover and adjust the angle of the console appropriately for exercise. The clock in the console uses always batteries, even when the device is not connected to any power source. Otherwise the clock would reset to zero.

Adjust the console so that it is in an appropriate angle for excercise.

TRANSFORMER

Connect the transformer connector to the plug in the front frame. Connect the transformer power cord to a receptacle. Always disconnect the power cord from the receptacle and the device after you finish. Make sure the power cord does not run underneath the equipment.

IMPORTANT! The device is shipped with a loop and a hook for securing the rowing machine properly in the storage position. Choose an appropriate storage site for your rowing machine next to a wall and attach the hook tightly to the wall at the right height. Lift the rowing machine to the storage position in front of the hook. Thread the loop provided with the rowing machine around the

O W N E R ' S M A N U A L R 6 0

cross bar and attach the loop to the hook. Do not climb on the rowing machine when it is in storage position!

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, 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

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

During exercise you may increase/decrease exercise intensity by pressing the + / - keys. Increase resistance/pulse with the + and decrease resistance/ pulse with the - key.

TELEMETRIC HEART RATE MEASUREMENT

The console has a heart rate receiver, so you can also use 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

4

Tunturi R60 User Manual

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.

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

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

O W N E R ' S M A N U A L R 6 0 G B

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)

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 .

PULL-BAR BUTTONS

In order to work, the pull-bar buttons require that the device be connected to the line current. The buttons in question only transmit individual keystrokes to the meter; the meter does not recognize longer keystrokes.

If the pull-bar buttons do not work, first check that the device is connected to the line current. After this, reset the remote-control function by pressing all three pull-bar buttons simultaneously for five seconds. Then, test the operation of the pull-bar buttons.

Note that there is a battery inside the pull bar. If the pull-bar buttons do not operate, replace the battery, and make sure that you place it in the right direction. Note, however, that in home use, the battery will last several years.

IMPORTANT! When you finish exercising, return the pull bar to its holder. Never release your grip on the pull bar in the middle of a rowing motion!
