Maintenance Instructions - Ironman Fitness 5501 Owner's Manual

1. Begin slowly: invert only 15~20 degrees to begin with. Stay inverted only as long as you are
comfortable. Return upright slowly.
2. Make gradual changes: increase the angle only if it is comfortable. Increase angle only a few
degrees at a time. Increase the time of use 1~2 minutes up to ten over a period of weeks.
Add stretching and light exercise only after you are comfortable with inversion.
3. Watch your body: come up slowly, dizziness after a session means you came up to fast. Wait a
while after eating before using table. If you get nauseous, do not fight it, come up as soon as
you feel queasy.
4. Keep moving: movement while inverted encourages blood circulation. Movement may be
accomplished by either rhythmic traction or light exercise. Do not exercise strenuously while
inverted, limit partial inversion without movement to one or two minutes. Limit full inversion
with no movement to only a few seconds.
5. Invert regularly: we recommend two or three times a day depending upon your current condition.
Try to schedule it for the same time each day.
