First Degree FLUID E720, Owner'S Manual

9 

CAUTION

Caution: 

It is important that a drop 

cloth be used under the fluid tank whenever 
the tank plug is opened for water treatment.   

The level of resistance is deter-
mined by the level indicator located 
on the front of the tank.  Level one 
indicates lightest resistance, level 
twenty represents heaviest resis-
tance.  Allow three to four seconds 
after adjusting resistance handle for 
the correct resistance level to be 
achieved.     

Long term water treatment: 

Do not use any water treatment other than the tablets 
supplied with this machine.  

For replacement tablets, con-

tact your local First Degree Fitness distributor. 

Water treatment schedules for the E720 will vary according 
to the fluid tanks exposure to sunlight, but expect 8-12 
months near a bright, sunlit window and 2 years or more for 
a darker location.  At the point of finding the water slightly 
cloudy, add a Chlorine tablet.  Remember to wait 72 hours 
following the chlorine tablet before adding the blue dye as 
the Chlorine tablet is extremely concentrated

.   

Important:  

Do not fill past the calibration mark as indi-

cated on the tank level sticker or water spillage may occur.  
See tank filling/water treatment page for details.

to allow both forward and reverse rotation 
during training.
