Adjustable Resistance (AR) Tank
The Adjustable Resistance (AR) tank offers a true multi-level experience. Water is moved between the
„storage" and „active" chambers of the AR tank. Your Nemo rower can be easily adjusted - at the turn
of a dial - to the resistance preferred by the user in the home environment.
Getting Started
To adjust minimum resistance, select „MIN" on the tank adjuster. It takes 10 strokes to fill the central
(storage) tank, leaving a minimal amount of water in the outer (active) tank. This process is always
required if minimum resistance is want-ed. Row at a steady pace (20 to 25 strokes per minute [SPM])
and put some ef-fort into the stroke. Make sure, you are executing correct rowing strokes. You may
adjust the resistance level while rowing. Your rowing ergometer will adapt to the new level quickly. It
will take up to 10 strokes while the central tank is filled up and until you can really feel the new resis-
tance level.
Developing your routine
Once you have found a level that gives you the intensity required, you can contin-ue to exercise on this
level. However, you can vary the SPM and the intensity on a regular base to optimize your training. Ad-
vanced rowers exercise in intervals, what means that a period of low intensity is combined with short
intervals of high intensity. Your device is able to realize adjustments ‚on the fly' to achieve multi-level
resistance profiles during a single workout.
WATER TANK
MAX: This setting allows the
maximum amount of water to
reach the flywheel for heaviest
resistance.
MIN: Keeps a portion of the
water in reserve creating light
resistance.
