Operating
the 7.0 S
The recumbent stepper is intended to be used in aiding in the
physical rehabilitation process for patients with orthopedic and
neurological problems. Also used in sports medicine, wellness and
general conditioning programs.
Typical applications for this type of product are
• Patient warm up before physical therapy session.
• Have the patient pedal to improve range of motion after
knee/hip/ankle surgery.
• Allow patients to perform cardiovascular exercise.
Unique uses for the 7.0 S
• Self adjustable step length allows patients to pedal in smaller range of
knee motion, from 5 degrees to full range.
• Arms are linked to the foot pedals for ease of coordination. Arms can
also be used alone without stepping with feet.
• Symmetry program measures balance between left and right pedal
and/or arm stroke. Graphical Bio-feedback display motivates patients
to maintain even power symmetry between left and right legs.
If measuring arms only the graph and power readings will be reversed.
