WARNING

FAILURE TO FOLLOW INSTRUCTIONS AND WARNINGS COULD RESULT IN SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH.

To reduce the risk of injury:

• Read and understand all the instructions, review all other accompanying documents, and inspect the equipment before use. It is your responsibility to familiarize

yourself with the proper use of this equipment and the inherent risks of inversion if these instructions are not followed, such as falling on your head or neck, pinching,

entrapment, equipment failure or aggravating a pre-existing medical condition. It is the responsibility of the owner to ensure that all users of the product are fully

informed about the proper use of the equipment and all safety precautions.

• ALWAYS read and understand the instructions and warnings associated with and accompanying any supplementary equipment, such as Teeter EZ-Up Inversion

& Chin-up Rack, Teeter Inversion Table, Adapter Kit, or bar.

• DO NOT use the equipment without a licensed physician’s approval. Carefully review the following list of medical contraindications for inversion with your licensed

physician (this is not an exhaustive list, it is intended only for reference):

• ALWAYS be certain the equipment is properly adjusted and tested, and that your ankles are secure before using the equipment. Ensure that the Gravity Boots are

snug, close ﬁtting and secure EVERY TIME you use the equipment.

• ALWAYS wear securely tied lace-up shoes, such as normal style tennis shoes. DO NOT wear clothing or footwear that can interfere with securing the Gravity Boots,

such as high-tops or any shoes that extend above the ankle bones.

• ALWAYS ensure that the Gravity Boots are put on the correct leg so that the buckle levers are on the outside of the leg, versus on the inside where they can rub against

each other and unlatch or sustain potential damage.

• This Owner's Manual covers proper use of the Gravity Boots with Teeter products. DO NOT attempt to use the Gravity Boots with other brand inversion tables. If you

opt to use the Gravity Boots with other bars, ALWAYS ensure the bar meets the diameter, height, and weight requirements for use with Gravity Boots. Failure to do so

could result in serious injury of death.

• Gravity Boots are only compatible with certain Teeter model inversion tables (to verify compatibility, go to teeter.com/product-support). DO NOT use with these

inversion tables until the standard ankle clamps have been modiﬁed with the Adapter Kit.

• When using the Gravity Boots with the EZ-Up Rack or other inversion bars, ALWAYS install the EZ-Up Strap to assist with dismount.

• DO NOT use Gravity Boots with a bar that exceeds 1.25 in (3.2 cm) in diameter. Bars that are too large will stress the hook and could result in equipment failure.

• DO NOT use Gravity Boots with a bar that is not weight tested by two persons with a combined weight equal to or greater than 1.5 times the user's weight hanging

from one side of the bar then the other while bouncing vigorously.

• DO NOT use Gravity Boots with the EZ-Up Rack if you are over 250 lbs (113.6 kg). DO NOT use Gravity Boots with Teeter Inversion Tables if you are over 300 lbs (136 kg)

or 6 ft 6 in (198 cm). Structural failure could occur or head/neck may impact the ﬂoor during inversion.

• DO NOT use Gravity Boots on a bar that is not mounted tall enough to allow your head to hang clear of the ground. ALWAYS ensure that the EZ-Up Rack upper bar

or non-Teeter brand bar is above the head of the tallest user in the household.

• New users will require the assistance of a spotter possessing the physical strength to lift and return the user to the upright position.

• DO NOT continue using the equipment if you feel pain or become light-headed or dizzy. If this occurs while inverting, immediately return to the upright position for

recovery and eventual dismount by following the dismounting instructions.

• DO NOT allow children to use the equipment. Keep children, bystanders, and pets away from the equipment while in use. The equipment is not intended for use by

persons with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities.

• DO NOT modify the equipment or use accessory attachments that are not recommended by the manufacturer. Utilize the equipment for its intended purpose only.

• DO NOT use the equipment at excessive heights more than 10 ft off the ground, above stairs, water, or other unsafe dismount environments.

• DO NOT use aggressive movements, bounce or swing excessively while inverting with the EZ-Up Gravity Boots. While inverted, DO NOT use weights, elastic bands, any

other exercise or stretching device or non-Teeter attachments. Use the Gravity Boots only for its intended use as described in these instructions.

• DO NOT exercise to the point of fatigue while inverted, otherwise returning upright or dismounting may be difﬁcult.

• DO NOT use in any commercial, rental or institutional setting. This product is intended for indoor, home-use only. DO NOT store outdoors.

• DO NOT operate equipment while under the inﬂuence of drugs, alcohol, or medication that may cause drowsiness or disorientation.

User Instructions EZ-Up™ Gravity Boots Owner’s Manual - 2 Using Calf Loops Calf loops are an optional feature designed to place a 2° bend in the knees (Figure 1), helping to reduce loads on the ankles and prevent the front edge of the boot from placing uncomfortable pressure on the tops of your feet. Calf Loops only accompany the standard size Gravity Boots, as the extra height of the XL Gravity Boots provide the same function during inversion.

Get the Most Out of Your Teeter EZ-Up™ Gravity Boots Owner’s Manual - 5 Get Started Determine the Duration: Begin with short 1-2 minute sessions to allow your body to adapt to inversion. Stay inverted only as long as you are comfortable, even if only for a few seconds at first. Over time, as you feel comfortable, gradually work up to a duration that allows your muscles to fully relax and release so your back can decompress. This should typically take about 3-5 minutes.

Feel Better. Move Better. Live Better. Inversion has changed my life and I believe it will change yours. In 1981, my wife and I started this company out of our family home with one goal: to help people who suffer from back pain find natural, sustainable relief. I understand what it is like to struggle with back pain and the limitations it places on one’s lifestyle. I tried practically everything to find relief, and nothing actually targeted the source of the ache rather than deal with just the symptoms ...
