has both forward and backward facing eyelets so you can choose to attach the springs on either side.
Eyelets not in use can be used for hanging spare springs.
b) Adjusting the push through bar height
The push through bar height can also be adjusted in the same way as the spring height by pulling out
both knobs and changing the height - this is easiest done by 2 people though it is not something done
frequently.
b) Using the push through bar & Safety Strap
Particular care must be taken when using the swing through bar. The safety strap MUST be used when the
springs are attached to the push through bar from the bottom side. If you do not take this precaution, the
user can get seriously injured. Further the user must never let go of the push through bar when it is under
spring tension.
Our safety strap design (Fig.6) allows for the quick adjustment of the strap - to tighten the strap simply pull
the loose end of the strap (Fig.7); to loosen first take the spring tension off the bar and then loosen the
D-rings to loosen the strap. The Safety strap also features a quick release dog clip, which can be used to
quickly take the safety strap off - this is convenient when you wish to let the bar hang down (or put it up to
get it out the way) when no springs are attached. The quick release should not be used whilst the bar is
under spring tension or it could result in an accident. If you are in doubt about how to safely use the swing
through bar, please seek training from a qualified Pilates professional prior to use.

Notes on Safe Usage -of your Half Cadillac - see your reformer manual for safe use of the reformer
The equipment is intended for use for recognised Pilates repertoire only, by/or, under the instruction of a
qualified Pilates professional. Access to the equipment by children without a qualified professional in
attendance must be prevented.
The Half Cadillac and related accessories are designed for inside use only and on a level floor with
suitable clearance around the equipment for safe operation. This free area should be not less than 0,6 m
greater than the training area in the directions from which the equipment is accessed. The free area must
also include the area for emergency dismount. Where equipment is positioned adjacent to each other
the value of the free area may be shared.
The maximum user weight for the equipment is 150Kg. When using the Half Cadillac it is not
recommended to take your centre of gravity outside the frame as this may affect the stability of the
equipment and could result in an accident. Recognised Pilates repertoire does not recommend that this
is done anyway.
Please note that the Safety strap is solely designed to prevent the swing through bar from swinging down
dangerously under tension and hitting the user, mainly when it is sprung from underneath the bar and the
user is lying underneath it. The safety strap is not designed to turn the swing through bar in to a rigid bar,
such that it can then be sat on, knelt on, stood on, hung on, swung on or climbed on with full body weight.
The swing through bar is designed for push through / swing through exercises, either un-sprung or with the
springs supplied. It is not designed to withstand resistances from any source other than the springs pro-
vided nor is it designed for isometric or body weight exercises applied from any angle. Exercises involving
