Important Safety Instructions - Teeter ComforTrak Series Assembly Instructions Manual

BEFORE YOU BEGIN: Review all steps before beginning assembly and read all precautions before using the inversion table.
Carefully adhere to the Assembly Instructions and Owner's Manual to help ensure safety and product integrity.
FAILURE TO FOLLOW INSTRUCTIONS AND WARNINGS COULD RESULT IN SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH.
To reduce the risk of injury:
• Read and understand all the instructions, review all other accompanying documents, and inspect the equipment before using the
inversion table. It is your responsibility to familiarize yourself with the proper use of this equipment and the inherent risks of inversion
if these instructions are not followed, such as falling on your head or neck, pinching, entrapment, equipment failure, or aggravating a
pre-existing medical condition. It is the responsibility of the owner to ensure that all users of the product are fully informed about the
proper use of the equipment and all safety precautions.
• DO NOT use the equipment without a licensed physician's approval. Carefully review the following list of medical contraindications for
inversion with your licensed physician (this is not an exhaustive list, it is intended only for reference):
• Middle ear infection
• Extreme obesity
• Pregnancy
• Hiatal or ventral hernia
• Eye conditions like glaucoma,
retinal detachment or
conjunctivitis
• Chronic sinusitis
• High blood pressure or
hypertension
• ALWAYS be certain the Ankle Lock System is properly adjusted and fully engaged, and that your ankles are secure before using
the equipment. HEAR, FEEL, SEE and TEST that the Ankle Lock System is snug, close-fitting and secure EVERY TIME you use
the equipment.
• ALWAYS wear securely tied lace-up shoes with a flat sole, such as a normal tennis-style shoe.
• DO NOT wear any footwear that could interfere with securing the Ankle Lock System, such as shoes with thick soles, boots, high-tops
or any shoe that extends above the anklebone.
• DO NOT use the inversion table until it is adjusted properly for your height and body weight. Improper settings can cause rapid
inversion or make returning upright difficult. New users, and users who are physically or mentally compromised, will require the
assistance of a spotter. Make sure the equipment is set to your unique user settings prior to each use.
• DO NOT sit up or raise head to return upright. Instead, bend knees and slide your body to the foot-end of the inversion table to change
weight distribution. If locked out in full inversion, follow the instructions for releasing from the locked position before returning upright.
• DO NOT continue using the equipment if you feel pain or become light-headed or dizzy while inverting. Immediately return to the
upright position for recovery and eventual dismount.
• DO NOT use if you are over 6 ft 6 in (198 cm) or over 300 lbs. (136 kg). Structural failure could occur or head/neck may impact the floor
during inversion.
• DO NOT allow children to use this machine. Keep children, bystanders, and pets away from machine while in use. The inversion table
is not intended for use by persons with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities, unless they are given supervision and
instruction concerning use of the machine by a person responsible for their safety.
• DO NOT store the inversion table upright if children are present. Fold and lay the table on the floor. DO NOT store outdoors.
• DO NOT use aggressive movements, or use weights, elastic bands, any other exercise or stretching device or non-Teeter
while on the inversion table. Use the inversion table only for its intended use as described in this manual.
• DO NOT drop or insert any object into any opening. Keep body parts, hair, loose clothing and jewelry clear of all moving parts.
• DO NOT use in any commercial, rental or institutional setting. This product is intended for indoor, home-use only.
• DO NOT operate equipment while under the influence of drugs, alcohol, or medication that may cause drowsiness or disorientation.
• ALWAYS inspect the equipment prior to use. Make sure all fasteners are secure.
• ALWAYS replace defective components immediately and/or keep the equipment out of use until repair.
• ALWAYS position equipment on a level surface and away from water or ledges that could lead to accidental immersion or falls.
• Refer to additional warning notices posted on the equipment. If a product label or Owner's Manual should become lost, damaged or
illegible, contact Customer Service for replacement.
