A. INSTALLING THE COREALIGN
Take the CoreAlign out of the box and place it on the floor with
the narrow end in front of the ladder. Make sure the CoreAlign is
on a level surface.
NOTE ON FURNITURE GLIDES: Several exercises require the
CoreAlign to move closer or farther from the ladder. Furniture
glides can be placed under the feet of the unit to make moving
easier. Choose the kind of glides you need based on the floor
surface the unit is installed on. Furniture glides for a variety
of surfaces are available at your local hardware store. If you
choose to use furniture glides be aware that they may cause the
CoreAlign to slide in use.
B. INSTALLING THE COREALIGN RESISTANCE TUBING
1. Remove the CoreAlign cart
top by pulling the round
knob on one end and
lifting the cart top up as
shown in Figure A.
2. Place the band handles
in the notches on both
sides of the cart as shown
in Figure B. The standard
arrangement for the tubes
is to place the 2 light
(peach) tubes in the outer
positions, the 2 medium
(blue) tubes in the center
positions and 2 heavy
(gray) tubes on the inside
positions.
3. Re-install the cart lid by
sliding the lid into place
(Figure C) and pulling the
round knob out to let the
lid drop into place. Release
the knob to lock the lid in
place.
Checking the resistance tubing for wear
The tubing must be replaced regularly in order to provide
consistent resistance and a safe experience on the CoreAlign.
Check the tubing weekly by opening the carts and looking for
holes or thin spots. Replace any worn tubing immediately. To
prolong the life of your stored tubes, keep them in a sealable bag
away from direct sunlight and heat until needed.

C. USING THE COREALIGN
The CoreAlign is comprised of two independent carts traveling in
two tracks, with standing platforms at each end of the unit. Cart
resistance is achieved by connecting color-coded elastic bands
between the carts and the notches on the ends of the frame.
Resistance can be adjusted by changing the color and/or the
number of elastic tubes used. Refer back to Figures A and B to
see how to properly install tubes.
Cart starting positions
The structure of the CoreAlign allows you to create resistance on
the cart in a number of different ways. Common configurations
include:
Both carts attached to the
ladder end of the frame
(Figure D)
Both carts attached to the
open end of the frame.
(Figure E)
One cart attached to the
ladder end and the other to
the open end of the frame.
(Figure F)
Both carts in one track, with
the tubing attached to either
end of the frame. (Figure G )
