WaterRower Ash S4 Owner's Manual

INTRODUCTION
Congratulations on becoming a WaterRower owner.
Rowing is universally recognized as the perfect aerobic exercise - smooth, low impact, rhythmic and whole-body - unrivalled
for its physiological benets and aesthetic pleasures.
"There are many reasons why people take up rowing. Exercise physiologists say it comes close to being
a perfect tness activity - suitable for almost any age, it exercises virtually every muscle group of the body
without placing undue strain on knees and other vulnerable joints. It's also very pleasurable"
Dr. Philip Kasofsky, MD, Physicians' Lifestyle Magazine: May 1989.
While most rowing machines imitate the action of rowing, they do so mechanically, and therefore lack the natural dynamics
experienced when a boat and crew glide down a river.
At WaterRower we have focused on replicating the physical dynamics of rowing, in the knowledge that this will achieve all
of its physiological benets, as well as much of the aesthetic pleasure.
To maximize the enjoyment from using your WaterRower we recommend that you follow our suggestions on rowing tech-
nique and exercise programmes. We hope that some of the discussion points in this manual will improve your knowledge
about exercise in general, so that you are better able to full your specic exercise objectives.
Your WaterRower has been carefully hand-crafted to give you years of trouble- free use. We recommend that you closely
follow the assembly details provided, particularly by assembling the machine in the correct sequence, and adhere to the
suggested maintenance schedule.
We hope you enjoy using your WaterRower for many years to come.
NOTE: Always consult a physician prior to commencing any exercise programme.
