6. Clip a cotton loop onto
the end of each rope and
hang the loops on the
shoulder rests. (Figure D).
Thread the other end of
each rope through a pulley
and back into the cam
cleats on the carriage to
adjust the length. Be sure
to go through the chrome
eyestraps on both sides of
the cam cleats.
Always push the rope
firmly down into the cleats
to ensure a good grip.
INSTALL THE SHOULDER RESTS
7. Note the two protruding studs on the bottom of the shoulder
rests. Lower the shoulder rest studs into the key holes and
slide shoulder rests away from the carriage pad. See Figure E.
Note: The shoulder rests can be installed in two positions. One
position is wider and more comfortable for broad shoulders.
Swap the left and right shoulder rests to change between
standard and wide configurations.
Fig E
INSTALL THE LOCKING SHOULDER POSTS
8. Screw the locking shoulder posts onto the exposed bolt on
each shoulder rest. Turn the posts clockwise to tighten them
and lock the shoulder rests into position. See Figure F. Over
tightening the posts will make them difficult to remove. They
should be snug but not too tight. To remove the shoulder
rests, turn the post counter-clockwise 1-2 turns and gently
slide the shoulder rests towares the carriage, then lift them up
and out.

FOOTBAR
Follow the instructions below for the footbar configuration of
your Reformer.
Classic Footbar
For Reformers with a classic footbar, the springbar can be found
in the sitting box with the appropriate hardware. Install it into the
gears under the footbar with its hooks facing up.
Revo Footbar
There is no installation required for the Revo Footbar
Infinity Footbar
Installation can be done by one person, but it is easier and safer
to have a person hold each side.
1. Pull the plunger knob
straight out so that the
recessed cross-pin comes
out of the slots. Then turn
the knob so that the
cross-pin rests on the bolt
head. Repeat on the other
side (Fig G).
2. Slide the trunion into the aluminum C-channels that run
down both sides of the Reformer frame (Figure H).
3. Twist the plunger knob until it locks into the desired position.
4. Attach the black stops to the end of the channels with
provided wood screws (Figure I).
