Full Inversion

Full inversion is defined as hanging completely upside down (90°) with your back free from
the Table Bed. DO NOT attempt this step until you are completely comfortable controlling
the rotation of the inversion table and inverting to 60°. To experience the benefits, you never
need to fully invert. However, many Teeter users do enjoy full inversion because of the added
freedom for stretches and exercises. To fully invert:
1. Disconnect the Angle Tether.
2. Adjust the Roller Hinges to Setting A to enable the inversion table to "lock" firmly in full
inversion. If you are 220 lbs (100 kg) or more, set the Roller Hinges to Setting B.
3. Slowly raise both hands over your head to begin rotation. You may need to assist the
last few degrees of rotation by pushing on the floor or A-Frame until the Table Bed
stops against the Crossbar (Figure 21).
4. Relax and allow your body to pull away from the Table Bed so you are hanging freely. If
you tense up or press your back against the Table Bed, you will likely come "unlocked."
5. In your correct balance setting, your weight will keep the Table Bed "locked" in
this position until you are ready to return upright. If unable to maintain an adequate
"lock" while fully inverted, contact Teeter Customer Service for options.
TO RELEASE FROM THE INVERTED "LOCKED" POSITION:
6. With one hand, reach behind your head and grasp the Table Bed and Bed Frame
Extension (Figure 22). With the other hand, grasp the base of the A-Frame in front.
7. Pull both hands together (Figure 23). This will rotate the Table Bed out of the "locked"
position. Keep elbows in to avoid pinching between the A-Frame and Table Bed
(Figure 24). Follow the instructions for Returning Upright on the previous page.

Dismounting

8. Push down on the EZ-Reach Handle to disengage the lock, then push out to open the
Ankle Lock System all the way (Figure 25).
9. Release the handle in the open position.
10. Keep your lower body supported against the Table Bed as you step onto the floor.
Carefully stand up and ensure you have your balance before stepping over the Main
Shaft and finishing your dismount.

Folding For Storage

1. Disconnect the Angle Tether.
2. Pull out the Height-Selector Locking Pin and slide the Main Shaft in all the way to the
last hole (the storage setting near the Rear Ankle Cups). Release and engage the Pin.
3. Stand in front of the Table Bed and rotate it opposite from use until it rests against the
Crossbar of the A-Frame (Figure 26).
4. Pull up on the Spreader Arms to fold the A-Frame (Figure 27), leaving the A-Frame legs
open to a width of 16-20" for stability. Use caution to prevent pinching fingers.
.
.
Tipping Hazard: Leave A-Frame open wide enough to remain stable, or secure to a wall to
.
prevent tipping. Store flat on the floor, not upright, to avoid the risk of tipping.
.
If you opt to leave the inversion table open and ready for use, be sure to SECURE the
equipment to deter unintentional rotation by looping the Angle Tether around the Main Shaft
and Cross Bar, then attaching it to itself with the clip (Figure 28). Test to ensure the inversion
table cannot rotate.
Maintenance
To clean your Teeter Hang Ups Inversion Table, wipe down with a damp cloth.
DO NOT use abrasive cleaners or solvents.
