We share our studies and experiences regarding the use of our products and vibration therapy in general. However, we are not in the position to provide medical advice for any specific medical condition. The health benefits suggested or implied in this user manual and on our websites are not approved or endorsed by any regulatory authority or medical institute. The negative impact of using our products has not been well studied. If you have a serious medical condition, please discuss your intended use of this vibration plate with your doctor. The use of the VT007 is entirely at the user's discretion. Please read all instructions in this user manual carefully before using this machine. We assume no responsibility for personal injury or property damage sustained due to the use of this machine. Scientific Research Scientific research on vibration therapy has been gaining momentum in recent years. While most research projects are literature reviews, some limited clinical trials with small sample sizes were conducted to test using vibration plates to treat various medical conditions and achieved some positive results. However, due to limited resources, none of the clinical trials conducted was adequately designed to test enough variables and their combinations. Many trials were not completed as designed. Current scientific studies have not led to consistent results to conclude any treatment modality in terms of parameters, procedure, dosage, and efficacy. Visit our blog website www.vibrationcare.com for our studies and experiences. Excessive exposure to intensive vibration can pose a health hazard. The US Labor Department and the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health advise caution for the extensive use of vibrational equipment and machinery. However, there is no set of safety standards regulated for vibration exposure. Normal use of the VT007 vibration plate, for example, a couple of ten-minute sessions a day, would not be considered hazardous. People with certain medical conditions may not be suitable to use the VT007. These conditions include, but are not limited to, the following. Pregnancy Epilepsy Kidney stones Implant Seizures Bladder stone Pacemaker Motion sickness Acute arthritis Heart disease Migraines Detached retina Recent surgery For general information about risks, warnings and hazards about using vibration plates, please visit www.vibrationtherapeutic.com/risks Nausea and Dizziness Some users can get nausea and dizziness using this machine when vibration is transmitted to their upper body and head. You can avoid these negative effects by bending your knees or lifting your heels to control the vibration from being transmitted to your upper body and head. In fact, squat and calf-raise are the best poses for lower limb muscle exercises. They minimize impact to knee joints and reduce vibration transmission to the upper body. New users should always begin with low vibration intensity and a short session time. Most users can gradually adapt to the vibration and overcome nausea and dizziness. 2 Safety Instructions Vibration Noises The VT007 vibration plate is intended for indoor use on a flat, dry floor, free from flammable gas or dust. For users who lack physical strength and balance, we recommend holding onto a wall-mounted handrail or a sturdy piece of furniture. The VT007 generates mechanical and soundwave noise. The noise level increases with higher vibration frequencies. Excessive or high-pitched mechanical noise indicates defective parts or assembly error. Never leave the vibration plate running unattended. Floor Shake & Jump/Drift Visit our website for the noise measurement results of the VT007 and comparisons with other common household electric appliances. [ Floor Shake ] VT007 should be used on a solid floor that resists vibration. If used on a wood frame construction floor, the vibration can agitate your floor and the connecting walls, causing damage to your house structure over time. We suggest you put a large EVA exercise mat beneath the vibration plate to absorb some downward transmitted vibration. [ Jump / Drift ] If there is no body weight on the VT007, vibration can cause the machine to jump / drift on the floor. A carpeted floor can prevent the machine from drifting. You should always keep your body on the vibration plate when it is running. EMF Exposure Recommended Exercises We highly recommend performing the following core strength physical exercises on the VT007. Exercise Squat L-Squat Deadlift Calf-raises Tiptoeing V-sit Push-ups Muscle Trained Muscles around knees Muscles around hips Lower back muscles Calf muscles Foot muscles Abdominal muscles Chest, triceps and shoulder To better understand how vibration stimulation can enhance these exercises, please visit www.vibrationtherapeutic.com/vibration-exercise.html Like all other household electric appliances, the VT007 vibration plate produces electric and magnetic fields (EMF). According to EPA, there is no definitive scientific evidence demonstrating that electromagnetic fields (EMF) have an impact on health. The EPA does not establish specific levels designating EMF exposure as either safe or hazardous. Visit our website for the EMF measurement results of the VT007 and comparisons with other common household electric appliances.

Mode Amplitude Suggested Applications P0 Manual Custom P1 Lo Relax exercise P2 Hi Cardio exercise P3 Lo / Hi Mixed exercise The charts below illustrate the frequency changes and amplitude switches for each program mode. In P3 mode, amplitude switching is incorporated alongside frequency changes. In these charts, each dot represents a 5-second period of vibration at a specific frequency. Green dots indicate a low amplitude setting, while red dots indicate a high amplitude setting. Frequency & Amplitude Charts of Program Modes Manual Mode In manual control mode (P0), prior to initiating vibration, you have the option to set the exercise session timer between 1 and 20 minutes. The default session time is 10 minutes. You can adjust the vibration frequency only when the machine is running. The default frequency 15Hz. You can switch the amplitude setting between Hi and Lo at anytime. For beginners, we highly recommend starting with the default settings and shorter exercise time. If the default frequency of 15Hz is too high for you, you may lower the frequency down to 10Hz. Program Mode Frequency (Hz) Frequency (Hz) P1 Frequency Pattern 40 35 30 25 20 15 Low Amplitude 10 0 100 200 300 400 500 600 Time (second) P2 Frequency Pattern 40 35 30 25 20 15 High Amplitude 10 0 100 200 300 400 500 600 Time (second) In program mode (P1, P2, or P3), the frequency and amplitude are pre-programmed to change in a specific pattern during a 10-minute session. All buttons, except 40 for the Start/Stop button, are disabled. 35 30 P3 Frequency Pattern The purpose of program modes is to generate a range of patterns and levels of stimulation by varying the frequency and amplitude. If you find it challenging to endure your desired frequency 25 20 15 Mixed Amplitude 10 0 100 200 300 400 500 600 Time (second) initially, consider using a program mode to ease in, gradually progressing to a higher frequency. 7 FAQ Clunk Sound The clunk sound you hear when you activate vibration and switch amplitude is a normal occurrence. You can also hear this clunk sound in program P3 as the amplitude setting is switched between Hi and Lo multiple times in this mode. Vibration Intensity Center At the Hi amplitude setting, the vibration intensity center is towards the control box side. At the Lo amplitude setting, the vibration intensity center is away from the control box side. The VT007 switches amplitude by reversing motor rotation direction to reposition the eccentric wheels. The clunk sound is produced when the eccentric wheels reverse and strike the position block. There is also a short grinding sound, which is from the friction between eccentric wheels when they rotate to the position. The clunk and grinding sounds are not an issue. They don't harm the machine. Recommended Exercise: Foot Muscle Training The shift of the intensity center is because of the motor rotation reverse designed for two amplitude settings. You should align your body weight right on the intensity center to get the best performance from the VT007 and avoid excessive vibration noise. Replacing the Fuse The fuse box is next to the power switch. Use a screwdriver to pry it out. Visit www.vibrationcare.com for its benefits and tips.
