Adjustable Resistance (AR) Tank
The adjustable resistance (AR) Tank, developed and patented by FLUID. offers a true multi-level
experience. Water is moved between the "storage" and "active" chambers of the AR Tank. Your new
rowing ergometer can adapt - at the turn of a dial - to the resistance preferred by each user.
Getting Started
To achieve minimum resistance, select "1" 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 desired. Row hard at a steady pace (20 to 25 strokes per minute
[SPM]) and put some effort into the stroke, ensuring that good form is maintained. You can make
adjustments to the resistance level while you row. Your AR Tank will adapt almost instantly to
increases in resistance but will take up to 10 strokes to reduce the effort required, as the central
(storage) Tank fills up.
Developing Your Routine
Once you have found a level that gives you the exercise required, changes can be made to SPM
and to stroke intensity to further vary your energy input. Interval training is used by most Rowers,
where a period of low intensity is combined with short intervals of high intensity. Your FLUID rowing
ergometer allows for changes 'on the fly', to achieve multi-level resistance profiles during a single
workout. For more information on exercise routines, please visit our website at www.fluid-eu.com
Tank Filling and Water Treatment Procedures
REQUIRED
Siphon [7]
CAUTION
Resistance adjuster must be
set to LEVEL 5 to allow for
accurate filling capacity.
WARNING
Do not overfill the tank
beyond the maximum
indicated level of 17 liters.
Refer to the Tank Level decal
on the lower side of the tank.
NOTE
In areas where tap water
quality is known to be
poor, FLUID recommends
the use of distilled water.
Level 1: This setting keeps a portion of the water in reserve creating light resistance.
Level 5 : This setting allows the maximum amount of water to reach the flywheel for heaviest
resistance .
A) Remove Tank Plug from the top of the Tank.
B) Place a large bucket of water next to the Rower. Position the
Siphon[7] with rigid hose in the bucket,and flexible hose in the Tank.
NOTE: Make sure small breather valve on siphon is closed before
filling.
C) Squeeze siphon to begin filling. Important: Do not overfill Tank.
D) When full, open the valve on the top of the Siphon to allow excess
water to escape.
E) Once filling is completed follow the water treatment schedule below,
then replace the Tank Plug.
