Introduction
• The Assault Fitness AirRower Elite requires assembly prior to use. Tools required to complete the initial setup and assembly have
been included in the Assembly Hardware Kit.

Assembly Step 9: Leveling the Unit
• Select a suitable space for operation of the AirRower Elite. Move the unit to the desired location by raising the rear stabilizer
off the ground until the transport wheels touch the ground. Slowly push the unit into place. Ensure there is at least 0.5 m
(19.7 in.) of clearance on all sides of the rower.
• Ensure the unit is level and does not rock by adjusting the Leveling Feet. There are two feet on the Front Stabilizer and two
on the Rear Stabilizer. As a starting point, loosen each foot by turning the leveler clockwise (when looking down towards
the leveler), and then loosen the locknuts against the foot base. Check the unit for stability and make any adjustments as
necessary. Once stable, lock the Leveling Feet in place by tightening the jam nut, against the underside of the stabilizer to
lock the current position of each foot.
• Congratulations, your new Assault AirRower Elite is fully assembled and ready for use. Please read all included information,
user guides and warnings before use.
