Instructions for assembly
•
Ensure that you have received all the parts required and that they
are not damaged. If you have any cause for complaining, please
contact WEBA Sport.
•
Before assembling the equipment, study the drawings carefully and
carry out the operations in the order shown by the diagrams. The
correct sequence is given in capital letters.
•
The equipment must be assembled with due care by an adult
person. If in doubt, call for help a second person, if possible
technically talented.
•
Please note that there is always a danger of injury when working
with tills or doing manual work. Therefore please be careful when
assembling this machine.
•
Ensure that your working area is free of possible sources of
danger, for example don’t leave any tools lying around. Always
dispose packaging material in such a way that it may not cause any
danger. There is always a risk of suffocation of children play with
plastic bags.
•
Bolt all the parts together loosely at first, and check that they have
been assembled correctly. Tighten the locknuts by hand until
resistance is felt, then use spanner to finally tighten nuts
completely against resistance (locking device). Then check that
all screws connections have been tightened firmly.
•
Please keep original packaging of this article, so that it may be
used for transport at a later dare, if necessary.
•
For technical reasons, we reserve the right to carry out preliminary
assembly work.

Einleitung
The SWIM ERGOMETER is a brand new product which
gives recreational and top-athletes the best opportunity to
simulate the motion stereotype of swim sport for test and
training. The complexity of the smooth and gentle motions
increases the muscles strength and flexibility of the upper
body.
It also offers the optimal cardio vascular training. The
unlimited range of resistance is given through air
displacement turbine. This break system allows the using of
the SWIM ERGOMETER independent from age or fitnesslevel. The load is regulated by the pulling effort. The working
position is adjustable for all body height.
The SWIM ERGOMETER is quality engineered using the
heavy-duty
component.
This
ergo
meter
could
be
disassembled in two parts for convenient transportation or
storage.
The SWIM ERGOMETER optimal and cost effective
training
machine
provided
with
an
electronic
unit
PERFORM ANCE MONITOR (Display Device) for monitoring
time, movement rate, force and power. Performance monitor
take signals from strain gages sensors for accurate
measuring of force and power.

Package Includes
Swim Ergometer with Display Device
Battery charger
USB cable
Choose the correct connector
The enclosed connectors correspond to the most commonly used.
The correct connector should fit properly using a little pressure. Do
not use extreme force to set the connector as this could damage
the unit to be charged.

Adjustment of resistance
The unlimited range of resistance is given through air displacement
turbine which simulates water fluid dynamics. This air-braking system
allows the using of The Swim ERGOMETER independent of age or
fitness-level. The load is regulated by the pulling effort.
There is additional mechanism for regulation of the fly while drag.
The lever regulates the flow air entering the flywheel. By increasing the
aperture the flow of air and the resistance is increased. For most
exercise and training situations the sportsman will only need to apply the
air-braking system.
