Note! Always be careful so you don't get your fingers jammed.
Always keep your hands on the handles when the table is in tilting motion.
Don't leave children using the table without supervision.
Find out how the safety catches work and make sure that at least one of the catches always is in function.
The other catch can be disengaged (picture 1), if you want to operate the table with just one hand. If both
catches are disengaged, the table will swing without safety stop and you may be injured.
In order to operate the table with the best balance, you should adjust the foot rest to the length
corresponding to the length of your body (picture 2). If this position doesn' t give good balance, adjust
the foot rest to the "length" that will give you the best balance.
Wiggle slightly with the table when you loosen the safety catches. If it works stiffly, the length is not
properly adjusted. When lying in prone position (on your stomach) on the table, you should always be
assisted by a person who is familiar with the functions of the table.
Note! When lying in prone position, and are returning to the initial position, do this carefully or you might
injure your toes. By length adjustment between 185-215 cm (model A), toe protection should be used (extra
accessory). Model B for supine position only.
Before stepping on to the foot rest, always check that the catch for the length adjustment is in locked
position (picture 2).
When you are about to use Mastercare – The Swedish Back Care System for the first time, it is appropriate
to make a "handling exercise" in order to feel confident with the functions of the table. Here is how:
- Take off your shoes.
- Step on to the foot rest with your back against the table and your heels against the foot rolls (picture 3),
or facing the table, when you use it as a massage table or work in prone position.
- Tighten the foot rolls to your insteps.
- Lean backwards against the back rest.
- Press down the locking devices on both sides of the stand, and press yourself slowly backwards (picture
4).
- When the back rest starts tilting backwards, let go of both catches, but keep your hands pressed against
the handles, until the catches will lock in the next position.
- Continue to horizontal position (picture 5), where you should make a halt, both at the beginning and the
end of the exercises.
- Press down the catches and continue to 15° inclination (picture 6), which is the first position with your
head lower than your feet.
- When the back rest is locked, place your hands on your stomach and bend/stretch both legs, so that you
can feel the back rest move on its rolls.
- Press down both catches and return, with a break in the horizontal position where you rest, to the
initial position (picture 19).
Repeat this exercise until you feel comfortable using Mastercare – The Swedish Back Care System. Now
this you are ready to start using the table.
