  • Step 6. With the frame tensioning bolt in place, attach the seat rails to the footplate using M10X47.5 bolts, M6X20 bolts, screws and 4x10mm/4x6mm washers.

  • Step 7. Install the rower seat with seat indentation facing rearward.
    ( Caution: The S-350 rower seat is heavy, use care when guiding down the seat rails.)
    Assembly-Instructions-03

  • Step 8. Install the rear leg assembly to the seat rails using M10X47.5 bolts, M6X20 Allen key screws and 4x10mm/4x6mm washers.

  • Step 9. With the tensioning bolt, seat and rear leg in place you may lower the S-350 to its operating position and con-tinue with the final steps of assembly.

  • Step 10. Bolt the rear to the upper frame. (M10X80mmbolt, Nylock nut and 2 washers)

  • Step 11. Insert the front of the handle catch bar (S-bend) into the foot plate.

Note: When standing the S-350 for storage, (shown left) first tilt the upper frame forward slightly to release the s-bend bar catch and then undo the frame tensioning bolt. This will allow the seat rail to fold vertically as shown left.

WARNING: Keep fingers clear of pivoting parts while moving the seat rail to the vertical position.

Note: A safety strap is located on the bottom of the foot plate. Use this to secure the seat rail in the upright position when storing the S-350.

Assembly-Instructions-04

Fill tank as shown left. Use the right plug only for filling.
Fill with adjuster handle at level 16 only.
Once filling is com-plete, use a coin or large blade screw-driver to tighten tank plug into place.

Water Treatment Proce-dures:

  1. Add Chlorine tablet.
  2. Wait a minimum of 72 hours. Then add very small amount of blue dye and check for desired color. Im-portant! Do not add blue dye for at least 72 hours following Chlorine treat-ment. The blue dye adds visual appeal as well as cut-ting down the amount of light affecting the tank water, thus extending the amount of time between water treatments.

Tank filling and Water Treatment

  1. Filling requires a large bucket (not supplied) and the Fluid Rower siphon (included). A filling will take approximately 7.6 liters of water.

  2. Unscrew the right tank plug on the rear of the fluid tank and insert the flexible tube into the rear of the tank while keeping the rigid hose in the bucket. Note: The siphon tube may be impeded by one of the impeller blades. Use the siphon only to push the impeller down slightly.

  3. Move the adjuster handle to level 16, and begin filling.
    Note: The siphon valve must be closed to allow siphoning action to occur. Tip: Placing the bucket in an elevated position will allow the siphon to continually pump water into the tank. Do not fill past the calibration mark indicated on the tank!
    Note: Opening the siphon valve will stop the pumping action. Use this feature to avoid water spillage when nearing filling completion.

  4. Once the filling is complete (to the proper calibration level as indicated on the tank), follow water treatment schedule as shown.
    Caution: Use a drop cloth under the tank both when filling the tank and adding blue dye to avoid staining floor or carpet

How to row.

  1. Begin the stroke comfortably forward and push strongly back with your legs while keeping your arms and back straight.
  2. Begin to pull your arms back as they pass over your knees and continue the stroke through to completion rocking slightly back over your pelvis.
  3. Return to the starting position and repeat.

How often?
Begin with 5 minute training sessions once a day and aim for around 2:30 to 2:45 for 500m time. Row at a pace that keeps the water circulating continuously between strokes.
Progress a few minutes more each day until you are comfortable with 30-45 minutes training time 3 or 4 times a week.
This is sufficient to provide aerobic endurance benefits, muscle toning and sufficient calorie burning to form part of a weight loss pro-gram.

CAUTION

Always consult a doctor before beginning an exercise program. Stop immediately if you feel faint or dizzy. Caution

Long term water treatment and basic operation

Important: Do not fill past the calibration mark as indicated on the tank leve l sticker or water spillage may occur. See tank filling/water treatment page for details.

Long term water treatment :
Do not use any water treatment other than the tablets supplied with this machine. For replacement tablets, contact your local First Degree Fitness distributor.
Water treatment schedules for the S-350 will vary according to the fluid tanks exposure to sunlight, but expect 8-12 months near a bright, sunlit win-dow and 2 years or more for a darker location. At the point of finding the water slightly cloudy, add a Chlorine tablet. Remember to wait 72 hours following the chlorine tablet before adding the blue dye as the Chlorine tab-let is extremely concentrated.

Caution: It is critical that a drop cloth be used under the fluid tank whenever the tank plug is opened for water treatment.

Resistance: The level of resistance is determined by the level indicator located on the front of the tank. Level one indicates lightest resistance, level sixteen repre- sents heaviest resistance. Allow three to four strokes after adjusting resis-tance handle for the correct resistance level to be achieved.

Frame levelers: T here are 3 frame levelers on the S-350. If rocking is present, then sim-ply raise one of the front lower frame levelers until stability is achieved.
Note: The lower rear frame leveler is designed to sit slightly off the ground. See following page and illustrations as discussed in the Fine Tuning the S-350 section of this manual. This leveler height is preset from the factory, and is adjusted using the frame tensioning bolt as de-tailed on the following page.

Heel support adjuster: The S-350 has a unique and easy to use Heel Support Adjuster. Simply slide the Adjuster up or down to the required position. This should place the ball of your foot directly under the horizontal Foot Straps. Secure Foot Straps. The Heel Support allows the user to row without shoes if desired.

Fine tuning the S-350

Fine tunning

Caution: Use care when threading the frame tensioning bolt.
The frame tensioning bolt must be adjusted properly for optimum performance. Symptoms of an improperly adjusted frame tensioning bolt will include front frame shak-ing and the S-bend attachment point moving during rowing. If either of these symptoms appear, than take the following steps.

  1. If the S-bend is moving in and out of the attachment point during hard rowing, the tensioning bolt may be over-tightened. Loosen slightly and check performance. This will also weight the S-bend handle catch into the footplate attachment point and prevent it from moving.
  2. If the frame tensioning bolt is threaded too loosely, the mainframe rear leveler will be resting on the floor. This will cause the rower to lift slightly on the front during hard rowing and not be smooth. Tighten the frame tensioning bolt until you see the rear frame leveler rise slightly off the ground, but can just touch the floor during a weighted rowing stroke.
  3. Once the S-bend is tight and does not move during rowing, and the frame tensioning bolt is threaded to the correct depth, the adjustment will be complete.

Note: The frame tensioning bolt may require slight adjustment for rowers of different weights. For example, a heavier user may require a slightly tighter adjustment on the frame tensioning bolt.

Transporting the S-350 The S-350 can be transported with the frame tensioning bolt in place. Simply lift from the rear of the seat rail until the transport wheels are engaged. The frame will sag slightly as the rower is being moved in this position and the S-bar may drop out of its attachment point. This is normal. Warning! Do not attempt to transport in the vertical (folded) position. Only transport the S-350 in the normal operating position with the frame ten-sioning bolt in place.

General Maintenance

Chain tension and lubrication:

The chain will require periodic tightening and lubrication using the 20-weight oil supplied. This is a general time frame for lubrication which will vary slightly depending on usage.
After first 50 hours of use:

  1. Remove the Perspex cover.
  2. Inspect chain for dryness and proper tension. Note: The chain should have approx 3- 5mm of play after tightening with a smooth run on after every stroke.
  3. Lubricate lightly with the supplied 20 weight oil.
    Warning! After lubrication, any excess oil will be thrown onto the inside of the Perspex cover and possibly the floor below. Use a drop cloth both during and after chain lubrication to prevent oil stains.

Repeat after every 100 operating hours to maintain optimum performance.

Warning!

  • Keep fingers clear of all moving parts while adjusting the chain!
  • Always use a dropcloth under the machine after lubricating the chain to protect floors/carpet from excess oil spatter.

General-maintenance

  • Step 1. Remove the Perspex cover from Mainframe.
  • Step 2. Loosen 13mm tank tensioning nut clockwise.
  • Step 3. Tighten tank tensioning bolt counter-clockwise with 6mm Allen key in small increments and check for proper chain tension. 3mm-5mm of play is optimum after tightening. Once proper tension has been achieved, re-tighten the 13mm nut.

Changing the Rower belt

Changing-belt

  • Proper belt feed through belt pulley and around idle wheel
  • Beginning the belt wrap on the belt bungee pulley
  • Proper bungee position prior to reinstalling around the bungee pulleys as shown right.
Belt Removal
  1. To remove the rower belt, simply continue past the normal rowing position rearward until the belt detaches from the belt/bungee pulley.
    Replacing the belt

  2. First remove the rear PVC cover at the rear of the machine. Then remove metal inspection plate which is located on the right side of the upper frame to access the belt/bungee pulley.

  3. Detach the bungee cord at bottom left of frame.
    Feed the belt through the top belt pulley with the velcro facing down .
    Then feed the belt across the idle wheel as shown (upper left).

  4. Feed the belt onto the belt/bungee pulley slowly clockwise until the rower handle is right to the computer mount. You can check your progress by looking through the inspection plate to make sure the belt is wrapping smoothly as shown left.
    Note: The bungee cord will need to be rewrapped around the belt bungee pulley and bungee wheels correctly once the rower belt is position.
    Warning: Do not attempt to operate the machine until the bungee cord has been properly re-wrapped.

  5. Unwrap the bungee cord from the belt bungee pulley until you see the placement hole in the belt/bungee pulley. Then, make one clockwise wrap as shown (lower left) and feed the bungee onto the bungee pulleys following the steps below:Changing-belt 2

Finish by tying off at the bungee attachment point at the bottom left of the inner frame. Approx 5cm of bungee fed through the attachment point should provide the proper tension.
Tip: Keeping the bungee under tension while wrapping will help prevent the bungee from slipping off the bungee pulleys.

Changing the bungee cord

Changing the bungee cord

  1. Step 1. Remove the Perspex cover.

  2. Step 2. Remove the side inspection plate.

  3. Step 3. Undo the bungee cord from the attachment point.

  4. Step 4. Pull the rower handle approx half a rowing stroke toward the rear of the machine, while at the same time watching for the upper sprocket hole to appear as shown above.

  5. Step 5. Remove all excess bungee cord from the belt bungee pulley as shown right. This will allow you to see clearly where the bungee cord fits through the belt/bungee pulley.

  6. Step 6. Start to rewrap the belt toward the front of the machine by winding the belt onto the belt/bungee pulley. The goal is to match the bungee position on the belt bungee pulley and the hole at the top of the sprocket. This will allow you to pull the bungee cord through the sprocket hole as shown right without having to pull the machine apart.
    Warning: Do not under any circumstances place hands on or inside chain and sprockets! Use the inspection plate area to work only. Changing the
bungee cord 2

  7. Step 7. Feed the replacement bungee through the sprocket hole and belt bungee pulley as shown. Holding the Idle wheel with one hand as pictured will prevent the belt/bungee and sprocket holes from moving out of alignment when threading the bungee cord. If the two holes move out of alignment while threading the bungee cord stop, remove the bungee cord, realign the holes and try again.

  8. Step 8. Once the bungee cord is fitted properly and seated flush inside the belt/bungee pulley, thread the rower belt back on to the belt bungee pulley until the rower handle is at its furthest point forward. Then, remove the bungee wraps from the belt/bungee pulley completely. At this point, make one clock-wise wrap of the bungee cord on the belt bungee pulley as shown right. Then, follow the illustrations below to wrap the bungee cords around the bungee pulleys.

Shown left: The Rower belt is properly rewound onto the Belt/Bungee pulley. Note also the correct position for the bungee cord prior to rewinding the bungee cord around the belt pulleys as shown below.

Caution

  • Begin with the lower right bungee pulley, taking care to keep the bungee cord behind the frame tensioning bolt as pictured.
  • Next, thread the bungee around the lower left rear bungee pulley.
  • Then, thread the bungee around the upper left rear bungee pulley.
  • Next, thread the bungee around the lower left front bungee pulley, and then up to the upper left front bungee pulley, finishing at the tie off point located at the left lower section of the frame. (See step 2)

Tip: Keeping the bungee cord under slight tension will help prevent the cord from slipping off the bungee pulleys while wrapping.
