SAFETY

The following are some general use recommendations to ensure the safest and optimal 

operation of the Slider.

CHAIN AND HANDLE 

The chain and oar handle must be kept in good condition to prevent any reduction in 

performance of the machine, increased wear, and/or risk of failure, which could result 

in injury to the user. Check the condition of the chain regularly (particularly the swivel 

attachment where the chain and the U bolt on the handle meet). If the hole in the swivel 

becomes worn or the U bolt weakened, contact your Slider distributor for replacement 

parts. Recommendations to prolong the life of the chain and components are:

•

Do not release the handle until it is resting against the handle holder or the 

chain faring. Letting the handle fly back to the chain faring could damage the 

links in the chain, chain connector swivel, handle, chain faring and/or the STM 

workout monitor. 

•

Use both hands to pull back on the handle. One-hand rowing causes sideload 

on the chain and connector, which can compromise the structural strength of 

these parts.

•

Never twist chain or pull from side to side.    

Please note: Abuse of the chain can result in injury. 

LOCKING THE ROLLING FRAME 

DO NOT USE THE SLIDER IN THE LOCKED POSITION. To do so will cause damage to the 

rail frames and weaken the locking mechanism. 

MOVING AND STORING IN AN UPRIGHT POSITION 

The Slider has wheels located on the front legs to help move the machine. ALWAYS PUT 

THE FRAME LOCK IN THE LOCKED POSITION 

BEFORE MOVING THE SLIDER. Once the rolling 

frame is locked, lift the rear of the machine to 

engage the front wheels on the ground. Wheel 

the machine into position and stand the machine 

upright on the front end. Only store the machine 

upright on a level and even surface.
