Choose a flat, level surface on which to use your Rower, to avoid rocking and potential premature wear.

Operation Instructions

Adjustable Resistance (AR) Tank
The Adjustable Resistance (AR) Tank, developed and patented by FIRST DEGREE FITNESS. offers a true multi-level experience. Water is moved between the “storage” and “active” chambers of the AR Tank. Your new Rowing Ergometer can adapt – at the turn of a dial – to the resistance preferred by each user.
Getting Started To achieve minimum resistance, select “1” on the tank adjuster. It takes 10 strokes to fill the central (storage) tank, leaving a minimal amount of water in the outer (active) tank. This process is always required if minimum resistance is desired. Row hard at a steady pace (20 to 25 strokes per minute [SPM]) and put some effort into the stroke, ensuring that good form is maintained. You can make adjustments to the resistance level while you row. Your AR Tank will adapt almost instantly to increases in resistance but will take up to 10 strokes to reduce the effort required, as the central (storage) tank fills up.

Developing Your Routine Once you have found a level that gives you the exercise required, changes can be made to SPM and to stroke intensity to further vary your energy input. Interval training is used by most Rowers, where a period of low intensity is combined with short intervals of high intensity. Your FDF Rowing Ergometer allows for changes ‘on the fly’, to achieve multi-level resistance profiles during a single workout. For more information on exercise routines, please visit our website at www.firstdegreefitness.com
Tank Filling and Water Treatment Procedures
REQUIRED Siphon [7] CAUTION:
Resistance adjuster must be set to LEVEL 4 to allow for accurate filling capacity.
WARNING Do not overfill the tank beyond the maximum indicated level of 17 liters. Refer to the tank level decal on the lower side of the tank.

NOTE
In areas where tap water quality is known to be poor, FDF recommends the use of distilled water.
a) Remove Tank Plug from the top of the tank.
b) Place a large bucket of water next to the rower. Position the Siphon[7] with rigid hose in the bucket, and flexible hose in the tank.
Note: Make sure small breather valve on siphon is closed before filling.
c) Squeeze siphon to begin filling. Important: Do not overfill tank
d) When full, open the valve on the top of the siphon to allow excess water to escape.
e) Once filling is completed follow the water treatment schedule below, then replace the tank plug.

First Degree Fitness NEON Plus Indoor Rower - Rower7

LEVEL 1: This setting keeps a portion of the water in reserve creating light resistance
LEVEL 4 : This setting allows the maximum amount of water to reach the flywheel for heaviest resistance
INITIAL WATER TREATMENT
Add 1 x Water Treatment Tablet per full tank. DO NOT, UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCE, USE A WATER TREATMENT TABLET OTHER THAN THOSE SUPPLIED WITH YOUR UNIT. Your unit purchase includes 4 x Water Treatment Tablets, which is sufficient for several years of use. To purchase additional Water Treatment Tablets, please consult your nearest regional dealer/distributor or check our website at www.firstdegreefitness.com
Removing/Changing Tank Water

First Degree Fitness NEON Plus Indoor Rower - Rower8

a) Set Adjuster Knob to “1”
b) Row at least ten strokes to fill the storage reservoir as completely as possible.
c) Remove Tank Plug. d) Insert rigid end of siphon into the tank, and flexible hose into a large bucket.
e) Drain tank (approx. 40% of water will remain) and then refill following directions for Tank filling as described in the Tank Filling section of this manual.

Note:

  • The valve on top of the siphon must be closed to allow proper drainage.
  • Water treatment will preclude the need to change tank water if the treatment schedule is maintained. Additional Water Treatment Tablet is required only when discoloration appears in the water.
  • Exposure to full sunlight reduces the life of the Water Treatment Tablets. Storing the Rower away from direct sunlight will extend the time between water treatments.
  • Approximately 40% of tank water will remain. It is not possible to completely drain the A/R tank without disassembly.

NOTE: For simple, fast and efficient filling and/or drainage of the Tank, we have a battery operated pump (rechargeable via USB) available as an option. We recommend this to any commercial facility, with multiple units, that has a need to drain and refill Tanks from time to time. To purchase, contact your nearest First Degree Fitness distributor or go to our website on www.firstdegreefitness.com for details.

Long Term Water Treatment and Basic Operation
Do not use any water treatment other than the tablets supplied with this unit. For replacement tablets, contact your local First Degree Fitness distributor. Water
Treatment schedules for the ROWER will vary according to the tanks exposure to sunlight, but expect 8-12 months near a bright, sunlit window and 2 years or more for a darker location. At the point of finding the water slightly cloudy, add a Water Treatment Tablet.

CAUTION
It is strongly recommended that a drop cloth be used under the Tank whenever the Tank Plug is opened for water treatment.

  1. Select your preferred Fluid Resistance.
  2. Match the level shown on Monitor with the tank Fluid Resistance using the UPDOWN buttons.

First Degree Fitness NEON Plus Indoor Rower - Rower9

When adjusting resistance level, allow two strokes to feel an increase and ten strokes to feel a decrease.
Start Rowing
There are six phases to completing a rowing stroke

First Degree Fitness NEON Plus Indoor Rower - Rower10

  1. Sit with straight legs and back, leaning forward slightly at the hips with arms out straight and hands level with the lower ribs. Swing back.

  2. Legs and back straight, leaning slightly forward from the hips, arms out in front. Lean and slide forward.
    Note: Hands should now be around your knees, keeping legs straight.

  3. Legs come forward, aiming to get the shins vertical. Back is still straight, and posture leaning slightly forward with arms still out front. Now drive hard, this is the CATCH.

  4. Knees partially straightened so Seat is now at mid-point of travel, back and arms still straight. Maintain the stroke.

  5. Knees are nearly straight, back is still straight but now leaning slightly back from the hips. Arms straight. Now squeeze through.

  6. Legs now fully extended. Back straight and leaning slightly back, now pull with the arms so they are close to the chest, forearms horizontal and elbows close in to the rib cage. This is the FINISH.

For more information on correct rowing technique and workout tips visit our website www.firstdegreefitness.com/indoor-rowing-technique
CAUTION Always consult a doctor before beginning an exercise program. Stop immediately if you feel faint or dizzy.
Adjust Footplates
The Footplate Slider accommodates most foot sizes, and is designed to keep your feet securely in place as you row. The feet should be positioned so that the Foot strap covers the section of the foot naturally bend as row. (e.g. The board of the foot)

TO ADJUST: Lift the top of the Footplate from the mounting pegs and slide vertically betwee1-6 to suit your foot length. Secure by hooking the Footplate back onto the mounting pegs and pushing down firmlyt lock it into position. Place feet on the footplates and tighten the Foots traps to ensure your feet sit firmly against the hecaptures.
Note: The heel capture should bend to allow your foot to pivot naturally as you row.

WARNING: Never operate this Rower without feet properly secured in Foot straps, or without the sliding portion of the Footplate Slider locked into position!

Detaching the Rower Belt

  1. To detach Belt, simply pull beyond the range of the normal rowing stroke until the Belt detaches from the Belt Bungee Pulley.
    Tip: You’ll hear the Velcro separating just before the belt detaches.

  2. Unhook the Bungee Shock Cord from the Rear Brace. Then, push out the Inner Clip from the Bungee Hook. Pull the Bungee through the Inner Clip until free. This will allow for the Bungee Shock Cord to be threaded completely out of the Main Frame and up to the Belt Bungee Pulley where it will be re-attached once the Rower Belt is in the proper position.

First Degree Fitness NEON Plus Indoor Rower - Rower14

Begin reattaching the Rower Belt by threading around the Rower Belt Pulley with the Velcro side facing upward as illustrated.

Next, thread the Belt around the Idle Wheel as shown. Once around the Idle Wheel, attach the Rower Belt to the Belt/Bungee Pulley. There is an obvious “lip” at the attachment point.

Wind the Rower Belt onto the Belt/Bungee Pulley until the Rower Handle is as it’s furthest forward position.

Rethread the Bungee Shock Cord (on opposite side of the Idle Wheel) back through the Bungee Pulleys and tie off at the Attachment Point.

Recoil tension will decrease over time as the Bungee Shock Cord stretches. To increase recoil tension, simply push the Inner Clip out of the Bungee Hook from behind, pull the required amount of bungee through the Inner Clip and replace the Inner Clip into the Bungee Hook as shown below.

First Degree Fitness NEON Plus Indoor Rower - Rower19

Hint: Before reattaching the Inner Clip/ Bungee Hook, tie a slip knot under slight tension at the lower bungee pulley. This will keep the Bungee under tension while reassembling the Bungee Hook.
