FILLING / EMPTYING THE WATER TANK
FILLING AND EMPTYING THE WATER TANK
1. Remove the plug of the tank.
2. Fig. A shows how to fill the tank with water. Place
the hose in the tank and use either the supplied si-
phon pump or the USB pump and a bucket of water
to fill the tank. Pay attention to the filling quantity,
which is indicated on the tank side wall by the level
indicator.
3. Fig. B shows how to empty the tank. Place a bucket
in close proximity to the water tank and use the supplied siphon pump or the USB pump to pump
water from the tank into the bucket.
4. Put the plug back into the tank. If any water has spilled, wipe it away.
NOTES:
•
Always fill the tank with tap water or drinking water. Do NOT use distilled water, as this no longer
contains any additives and so algae may develop more quickly. Never use pure chlorine bleach
instead of a commercially available water treatment/chlorine tablet. Chlorine bleach, unlike chlo-
rine tablets, may damage the tank.
•
From now on, add a water treatment tablet to the tank every approx. 2 months. If the water remains
cloudy despite the tablet, change the water in the tank.
•
The water from the tank is not suitable for consumption. After emptying, pour the water away.
The water level
•
Fig. A shows where the level indicator is located (side wall of the tank). You may fill the tank to a
maximum of the „Max" mark. Never overfill the tank beyond this! This will void the warranty (mini-
mum = 8 litres / maximum = 16 litres).
•
The resistance during rowing depends on the fill level of the tank. Filling level 1 means the lowest
resistance when rowing, level 9 is the highest resistance.
