repetitions. The calorie option is not accurate

| Q. |
How does the table option work
on the glider? |
| A. |
When the table option is ordered with the Glider it is
inserted where the chest pad would normally go. You can
use the table while exercising, however we recommend due
to space that you use the standard chest pad.

| Q. |
How do I adjust the tension? |

The resistance cylinders have markings from 1 to 9 with
1 being the lowest. You need to twist the top of each
cylinder to adjust the tension. You can also disengage the
cylinders for no tension at all.

| Q. |
Will shearing be a problem
with the EasyStand Glider? |

When you go from sitting to standing you may have some
shearing. To minimize this you should make sure the seat
height is adjusted correctly. While using the Glider
during exercising there will be minimal shear.

6000 Glider? |

Yes they can. Many have done so with some minor
alterations.
|
| Q. |
Can I use the Glider if I have
strength in only 1 arm? |
| A. |
It is very difficult to use the Glider if you have
limited or no use in one arm. It can be done, however it
is difficult.
|
| Q. |
Why didn't I get a seatbelt
and foot straps with my EasyStand? |
| A. |
You can order a seatbelt with the Glider at no cost.
You do not need a foot strap because you are already
strapping your legs behind the knee.
|
| Q. |
I love my Glider, but my hips
always shift to one side. What can I do? |
| A. |
The Side supports work great for keeping the body
aligned while standing.
|
| Q. |
What benefits will I receive
from the Glider over the EasyStand 5000? |
| A. |
You will get dynamic standing aver passive standing.
Dynamic standing will give you aerobic exercise and little
better range of motion.
|
| Q. |
What is the best way to
transfer into the Glider? |
| A. |
We have found that there are a number of ways people
transfer into the glider. One way is to bring your chair
at a slight angle along side the Glider, secure the wheel
locks on your chair, scoot up to the front of your chairs
seat, place the inside leg into the footplate on the other
side of the Glider and than transfer over. The leg should
go right into place. Another way is to again come along
side the Glider and transfer onto the Glider seat and than
bring the legs back. We have learned that no one way is
right and after a weeks use of the Glider the user tends
to create their own technique.
|
| Q. |
Is the Glider Mobile? Can I
add the mobile Option to the 6000 Glider? |
| A. |
The Glider does not accept a mobile option such as the 5000
and 5000 Youth. It
is an exercise unit with added weight for stability and it
would not work well as a mobile stander.
