OPTION: INSTALLING THE TWIN MATS
1. Pull pins and completely lower risers.
2. Remove shoulder rests from the carriage.
3. Detach all springs from springbar and move the carriage
toward the head end of the frame.
4. Rotate the footbar support up to the padded section of the
footbar and then lay the footbar down onto the frame rails. It
should now be inside the frame and lower than the top of
the frame.
5. Vinyl flaps are installed inside one mat for shipping purposes.
Detach, rotate, and reinstall flaps so they hang down from the
edge of the mat aligned with eye bolts.
6. Place the mat with vinyl flaps at the head-end of the Reformer
with flaps facing the PTB. The Vinyl flaps should hang over
the head-end of frame. They are designed to protect the mat
conversion when using the PTB with a bottom spring.
7. Place the remaining mat on the foot-end of the Reformer.
Make sure the end of the mat with the feet further from the
edge is installed over the standing platform.

WEEKLY MAINTENANCE
Inspect springs for separations, and replace if needed. Inspect
snaps on springs and make sure the retractors operate smoothly.
Replace them if worn or do not operate freely. Make sure that
there are no indentations on the inside of the hooks.
Inspect all nuts, eyebolts and setscrews for tightness. Tighten or
replace if necessary.
It is recommended to check to ensure the pins in the plunger
knobs protrude and lock into the vertical tubes. First pull both
knobs out and start moving the sliders to a different position.
Release the knobs before the next hole and continue to slide the
system. Once over a hole the pin of the knob will drop into the
opening. Once each slider is in a new position apply a down force
on the PTB directly downwards. The pins of the sliders should
not come out of the holes. If the pins do not stay in the tube
holes, the pull knobs need to be replaced; call Balanced Body for
replacement parts.
