TRAINER R02A single lifter, outdoor pulling station

The TRAINER R02A single lifter is a free standing outdoor pulling station of 125.4 x 70.5 x 189.2 cm weighing 70 kg, from the OutdoorStart range and certified to EN 16630:2015-06. The movement pulls against body weight to load the shoulders, the upper back, the scapular girdle and the chest. Its real contribution to a public fitness area is postural: it trains the muscles that retract the shoulder blades, which in a population that spends the day at a desk or a wheel are the ones that never get worked.

Technical specification

The OutdoorStart positioning

OutdoorStart is the entry range in the TRAINER catalogue: free standing units, straightforward movements, no pylon and no accessories to specify. For a local authority equipping its first fitness area, or extending an existing one station at a time over successive budgets, that simplicity is the point. Each unit arrives complete, needs one foundation, and can be added later without redesigning what is already installed.

• Pulling movement for shoulders, back and scapular girdle
• Improves posture and upper body endurance
• Free standing, no support pylon required
• Body weight resistance, nothing to adjust or maintain mechanically
• 125.4 x 70.5 cm footprint, 189.2 cm overall height

Installation and inspection

Confirm the safety area on the installation drawing supplied with the quotation and surface it continuously against the free height of fall. Site the station so the seat approach stays clear of paths and planting, and keep enough spacing from a neighbouring unit that the two safety zones do not conflict.

Construction follows the TRAINER standard: shot blasted and galvanised steel under a two coat polyester finish, with HDPE contact panels that resist impact and UV without needing repainting. Include the pivot bushings, the panel fixings and the ground anchors in routine checks, and record the annual main inspection required of the operator for publicly accessible outdoor fitness equipment.

Frequently asked questions

How does it differ from the R01A chest press?

The R02A pulls and the R01A pushes. They train opposing muscle groups and are normally installed together so that a circuit covers both directions rather than only the one users find easier.

Is it accessible from a wheelchair?

No. The R02A is a standard seated station. The inclusive versions of these movements carry a folding seat mechanism and are supplied under separate references in the same range.

What maintenance does it require?

Very little. There is no stack, no cable and no cylinder. Checks cover the pivot bushings, the HDPE panel fixings and the anchors, plus the periodic and annual inspections expected of the operator.
