When you wish to insert the mattress insert to make a complete flat bed, unhook the springs from the

reformer bed, slide this up to the head end and then insert the mattress converter between the reformer

bed and the platform extender as per Fig.16 below.

Adjusting spring positions & the swing through bar height:

Adjusting the spring heights on the Full Cadillac can be adjusted by loosening the rope height adjustment

knob and then pulling the knob outwards to release the locking pin. Slide to the desired height and ensure

the pin re-engages in one of the holes, then tighten the knob to prevent rattle.

Each Full Cadillac carriage has both forward and backward facing eyelets so that you can choose to

attach the springs on either side. Eyelets not in use can be used for hanging spare springs. The swing

through bar height can also be adjusted in the same way by pulling out both knobs and changing the

height - this is easiest done by 2 people though it is not something that is done frequently.

You can set up your Full Cadillac with many different spring set ups, our images are for pictorial purposes

only. It is key to note that where the spring connects to the frame, please use a Karabiner, and where it is

close to the hand please use a double ended dog clip.

When unsupervised by a trained professional, we recommend that the swing should always be used with

the safety strap supplied (Fig.17). Our safety strap design allows for the quick adjustment of the strap - to

tighten the strap simply pull the loose end of the strap (Fig.18); 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.

Before first use, please use the small Allen key provided to tighten the grub screw in the brackets to hold

the frame in position. Congratulations you have now completely built your C1-Pro Full Cadillac!!
