Securing Your Ankles
• Stand with your back to the Table Bed - do not use the inversion table face-down.
• Step over the Main Shaft, placing your feet on the floor on either side. To balance
yourself, rest only your lower body against the Table Bed as you slide one ankle at a
time between the ankle clamps onto the Ankle Comfort Dial. Be sure to slide your ankle
in from the side (Figure 5); DO NOT insert your foot through the ankle clamps as you
would slide your foot into a shoe. Your feet should always be either on the floor or
on the Ankle Comfort Dial; never use any other part of the inversion table as a step
(Figure 6 and 7).
• Press your ankles back firmly against the rear ankle clamps.
• Rotate the top of the rear clamps slightly inward toward your ankles, this will increase
your comfort while inverting.
• Pull the T-Pin Lock out to allow the front ankle clamps to snap closed against your
ankles (Figure 8). Make sure your pant legs do not interfere with obtaining a secure
closure.
• Adjust the front ankle clamps to make sure both the front and rear ankle clamps are
snug against your ankles. Release the T-Pin Lock so that it fully engages a hole setting
(Figure 9).
• If the T-Pin Lock does not automatically engage in a hole (Figure 10), push the front
ankle clamps inward until the pin engages fully in the next tightest hole setting. Verify
that no part of your footwear or garments touch or interfere with the T-Pin Lock in any
way during inversion.
• Use the concept of HEAR, FEEL, SEE
Locking Pin click into place;
hole setting; SEE that there is NO space between the Locking Pin and its base.
DO NOT lean your upper body against the Table Bed before securing your ankles—
FAILURE to engage the Ankle Lock System fully could result in serious injury
or death!
Test Your Balance Setting
The inversion table is sensitively balanced, and it responds to very small changes in weight
distribution. As a result, you must always test to make sure you have the correct height
setting. Ensure that there is clearance to rotate in front, above and behind you. To begin,
rest your head on the bed and slowly place your arms on your chest.
• If your head is lower than your feet, lengthen the height setting by one hole and
test again.
• If your feet do not move at all, shorten the height setting by one hole and test again.
• If the table comes to rest with your feet lifted a few inches off the A-frame, then you
have found the correct balance setting (Figure 11).
This is an important step - spend the time needed to find your correct balance setting.
Your setting should remain the same as long as your weight does not fluctuate substantially.
For your first few inversion sessions, ask a spotter to assist you until
you are comfortable with the operation of the inversion table.
