STEPPING USER GUIDE<br />
LEARN TO USE THE VERSACLIMBER AS A STEPPING MACHINE<br />
BEFORE USING IT AS A CLIMBING MACHINE.<br />
The hand rails not only provide support while getting on and off the <strong>VersaClimber</strong>, but also<br />
the option of another exercise modality - Stair stepping.<br />
1. Hold the stationary hand rails and step on the lower foot pedal.<br />
Then, step on higher foot pedal until feet are level and stop.<br />
2. Switch on display.<br />
3. Turn hydraulic control knob toward "step slower."<br />
4. Hold hand rails and take short, slow 6 inch steps for about ten minutes.<br />
Step onto machine<br />
by placing enough<br />
weight on the lowest<br />
pedal to bring it to<br />
its bottom position.<br />
Support the upper<br />
body by holding<br />
the hand rails.<br />
DECREASE STEP RATE AND STEP HEIGHT FOR EASIER EXERCISE.<br />
By holding the hand rails in the front or to the side of the body and stepping with the legs<br />
only, the gluts, hip flexors, quads, hamstrings, calves and shins can achieve a complete<br />
lower body aerobic and strength exercise. A variable stroke length of 1" to 20" is available.<br />
Unlike other stair stepping machines, the foot pedal velcro straps allow the user to perform<br />
leg lifts in the upward motion of the stroke to achieve a more effective and balanced lower<br />
body workout. By shifting the hands from the stationary hand rails to the moving hand grips,<br />
the machine automatically converts from a stepping machine into a total body climbing<br />
machine or back to a stepping machine simply by changing hand position.<br />
