Tank Filling

Caution: Use a drop cloth under the tank when filling to avoid staining floor or carpet.

Remove yellow plug only for filling.
Fill with adjuster handle at level 10 only.
Do not fill past the calibration mark as indicated on the tank level sticker or water spillage can occur.
Once filling is complete, hand tighten tank plug into place.

Warning: Do not insert fingers into tank!

Filling requires a large bucket (not supplied) and the Fluid Rower Siphon (included). Filling will take approximately 8 liters of water.
Unscrew the right tank plug on tank back and insert the flexible tube into the rear of the tank while keeping the rigid hose in the bucket.

Note: The siphon tube may be impeded by one of the impeller blades. Use the siphon only to push the impeller down slightly.

Note: Where water quality is known to be poor, Life Fitness recommends the use of distilled water.
Move the adjuster handle to level 10, and begin filling. Do not fill past the calibration mark indicated on the tank!

Note: The siphon valve must be closed to allow siphoning action to occur.

Note: Placing the bucket in an elevated position will allow the siphon to continually pump water into the tank.

Note: Opening the siphon valve will stop the pumping action. Use this feature to avoid water spillage when nearing filling completion.
Once filling is complete (to the proper calibration level as indicated on the tank), follow water treatment schedule as shown.

Note: The lower tank plug is permanently sealed.
