When Pressing any key button wakes up the console which has been turned o, the console LCD
will turn on with full display and beeps for 2 seconds then enters idle mode. When there is speed
signal input with the speed sensors or detected, it directly enters Manual workout mode.
Power o: In any mode during turning on, if there is not any button activated or no rowing activity
lasts for 1 minute, it turns o automatically.
Window Functions:
Stroke/min
• S/M value shows the equivalent strokes per minute.
Time
• It shows the time elapsed.3.
• Range of time: 00:00~99:59(minute: second)
• The time is accumulated for each workout mode.
• When time is set to count down, it shows the time remaining.

Heart Rate
• The heart rate range is 40~220 bpm
• When the heart rate signal is detected, the small dot at lower right corner of the heart rate
window will be blinking together with heart rate value showing.
• When there is no heart rate signal detected, the heart rate window shows nothing.
Calories
• The calorie window shows the value of calories burned.
• The calorie range is 0~999.
• The calorie value is based on built in estimates of the average user and may not reect
accuracy. To have a more accurate basis of caloric burn - please contact your physician
and they can assist you.
Watts
• The Watts window shows Watt value for each stroke.
• The Watt range is 0 ~ 2000.

Heart Rate Monitoring (chest strap not included)
The old motto, “no pain, no gain”, is a myth that has been overpowered by the benets
of exercising comfortably. A great deal of this success has been promoted by the use of
heart rate monitors. With the proper use of a heart rate monitor, many people nd that their
usual choice of exercise intensity was either too high or too low and exercise is much more
enjoyable by maintaining their heart rate in the desired benet range.
To determine the benet range in which you wish to train, you must rst determine your
Maximum Heart Rate. This can be accomplished by using the following formula: 220 minus
your age. This will give you the Maximum Heart Rate (MHR)for someone of your age. To
determine the eective heart rate range for specic goals you simply calculate a percentage
of your MHR. Your Heart rate training zone is 50% to 90% of your maximum heart rate.
60% of your MHR is the recommended for burning
fat while 80% is recommended for strengthening the
cardio vascular system. This 60% to 80% is the zone
to stay in for maximum benet.
For someone who is 40 years old their
target heart rate zone is calculated:
220 – 40 = 180 (maximum heart rate)
180 x .6 = 108 beats per minute (60% of maximum)
180 X .8 = 144 beats per minute (80% of maximum)
So for a 40 year old the training zone would
be 108 to 144 beats per minute.
The two most popular reasons for, or goals, of exercise are cardiovascular tness (training
for the heart and lungs) and weight control. The black columns on the chart above
represent the MHR for a person whose age is listed at the bottom of each column. The
training heart rate, for either cardiovascular tness or weight loss, is represented by two
dierent lines that cut diagonally through the chart. A denition of the lines’ goal is in the
bottom left-hand corner of the chart. If your goal is cardiovascular tness or if it is weight
loss, it can be achieved by training at 80% or 60%, respectively, of your MHR on a schedule
approved by your physician. Consult your physician before participating in any exercise
program.

ERG700 Rower
Rate of Perceived Exertion
Heart rate is important but listening to your body also has a lot of advantages. There are more variables
involved in how hard you should workout than just heart rate. Your stress level, physical health, emotional
health, temperature, humidity, the time of day, the last time you ate and what you ate, all contribute to the
intensity at which you should workout. If you listen to your body, it will tell you all of these things.
The rate of perceived exertion (RPE), also know as the Borg scale, was developed by Swedish physiologist
G.A.V. Borg. This scale rates exercise intensity from 6 to 20 depending upon how you feel or the perception of
your eort.
The scale is as follows:
Rating Perception of Eort
6 Minimal
7 Very, very light
8 Very, very light +
9 Very light
10 Very light +
11 Fairly light
12 Comfortable
13 Somewhat hard
14 Somewhat hard +
15 Hard
16 Hard +
17 Very hard
18 Very hard +
19 Very, very hard
20 Maximal
You can get an approximate heart rate level for each rating by simply adding a zero to each rating. For
example a rating of 12 will result in an approximate heart rate of 120 beats per minute. Your RPE will vary
depending up the factors discussed earlier. That is the major benet of this type of training. If your body is
strong and rested, you will feel strong and your pace will feel easier. When your body is in this condition, you
are able to train harder and the RPE will support this. If you are feeling tired and sluggish, it is because your
body needs a break. In this condition, your pace will feel harder. Again, this will show up in your RPE and you
will train at the proper level for that day.
Wearing The Chest Strap
1. Attach the transmitter to the elastic strap using the interlocking key.
2. Adjust the strap as tightly as possible as long as the strap is not too tight to remain
comfortable.
3. Position the transmitter with the logo centered in the middle of your torso facing
away from your chest (some people must position the transmitter slightly left of
center). Attach the nal end of the elastic strap by inserting the round end and,
using the locking parts, secure the transmitter and strap around your chest.
4. Position the transmitter directly below the pectoral muscles.
5. Sweat is the best conductor to measure very minute heart beat electrical signals.
However, plain water can also be used to pre-wet the electrodes (2 ribbed
oval areas on the reverse side of the belt and both sides of the transmitter).
It’s also recommended that you wear the transmitter strap a few minutes before your work out. Some
users, because of body chemistry, have a more dicult time in achieving a strong, steady signal at the
beginning. After “warming up”, this problem lessens.
6. Your workout must be within range - distance between transmitter/receiver – to achieve a strong steady
signal. The length of range may vary somewhat but generally stay close enough to the console to
maintain good, strong, reliable readings. Wearing the transmitter directly on bare skin assures you of
proper operation. If you wish, you may wear the transmitter over a shirt. To do so, wet the areas of the
shirt that the electrodes will rest upon.
Note: The transmitter is automatically activated when it detects activity from the user’s heart. Additionally, it
automatically deactivates when it does not receive any activity. Although the transmitter is water resistant,
moisture can have the eect of creating false signals, so you should take precautions to completely dry the
transmitter after use to prolong battery life (estimated transmitter battery life is 2500 hours).

Erratic Operation
Caution! Do not use this Rower for Heart Rate monitoring unless a steady, solid Actual
Heart Rate value is being displayed. High, wild, random numbers being displayed indicate a
problem.
Areas to look for interference which may cause erratic heart rate:
1. Microwave ovens, TV’s, small appliances, etc.
2. Fluorescent lights.
3. Some household security systems.
4. Perimeter fence for a pet.
5. Some people have problems with the transmitter picking up a signal from their skin. If
you have problems try wearing the transmitter upside down. Normally the transmitter will
be oriented so the Spirit Fitness logo is right side up.
6. The antenna that picks up your heart rate is very sensitive. If there is an outside noise
source, turning the whole machine 90 degrees may de-tune the interference.
7. Another Individual wearing a transmitter within 3’ of your machine’s console.
If you continue to experience problems contact your dealer.
GENERAL MAINTENANCE
1. Wipe down all areas in the sweat path with a damp cloth after each workout.
2. If a squeak, thump, clicking or rough feeling develops the main cause is most likely one of
three reasons:
I. The hardware was not suciently tightened during assembly. All bolts that were in-
stalled during assembly need to be tightened as much as possible. It may be neces-
sary to use a larger wrench than the one provided if you cannot tighten the bolts suf-
ciently. I cannot stress this point enough; 90% of calls to the service department for
noise issues can be traced to loose hardware.
II. The crank arm nut needs to be retightened.
