Frequently Asked Questions - Turbine Rower YRK56040A York Fitness

How do I assemble the Turbine Rower YRK56040A?

Assembly instructions are provided in the manual. Typically, you need to attach the rail, seat, foot pedals, and handlebar using included tools. It is recommended to have two people for assembly.

How does the air resistance work?

The air resistance is generated by a fan wheel inside the flywheel housing. The faster you row, the more air is displaced, increasing resistance. You can adjust the resistance by turning the damper lever on the fan housing.

What does the LCD display show?

The LCD display shows time, distance, calories burned, stroke count, and sometimes pulse (if hand pulse sensors are present). It operates without batteries, powered by the rowing motion.

How do I clean and maintain the rowing machine?

Wipe the frame with a damp cloth after each use. The rail should be cleaned and lubricated periodically with a silicone-based lubricant. Check bolts and screws for tightness every month.

What are the dimensions and weight of the rowing machine?

The approximate dimensions are 200 cm length, 50 cm width, and 60 cm height. The machine weighs about 30 kg. It can be stored upright to save space.

What is the maximum user weight?

The maximum recommended user weight is 120 kg (265 lbs) for safe and stable operation.

Does the rowing machine require electricity?

No, the Turbine Rower is entirely manual. The LCD display is powered by the rowing motion, so no batteries or power cord is needed.

Can I use the rowing machine on a carpet?

Yes, but it is recommended to place a mat under the machine to protect the carpet and reduce noise. The machine has stabilizers that can be adjusted for uneven floors.

How do I get replacement parts or service?

Contact York Fitness customer support or visit their website. Provide the model number YRK56040A. Common spare parts include the seat roller, handlebar, and foot straps.

Is the rowing machine suitable for tall users?

Yes, the rail length accommodates users up to about 2 meters (6'6") comfortably. The foot pedals are adjustable to fit different shoe sizes.

BFE Warranty Policy – November 1 ^st 2013

1. When purchased from an authorised BFE distributor the BFE warranty shall guarantee that all framework and components of your product are free from faulty manufacture. All faulty framework and components will be repaired or replaced as set out in this policy. All warranties in this policy apply to INDOOR HOME/DOMESTIC USE ONLY.
2. These warranties do not apply to products used in commercial use applications.
3. Warranty DOES NOT cover normal wear & tear and excludes faults due to misuse, abuse, incorrect assembly or lack of general maintenance.
4. Warranty is applicable to products sold and placed within Australia only.
5. IMPORTANT. Most of BFE products are pretested and we have inspectors checking all products prior to shipment. The number one reason for a fault is due to INCORRECT ASSEMBLY.

If you do have problems please go back to the start and double check your assembly and pay special attention to all WIRING connections. If you have accidentally cut or damaged the wiring please let us know and we will be happy to send you a new set at no-charge.

If you have done this and are confident you have double checked your assembly and are still having problems please email our service department at

[e-mail] including your best contact details, proof of purchase, serial number and a brief explanation of what is wrong.

Emailing is the quickest and most reliable way to get your service request processed. Once we have your details we will either call or email you back with the next steps. The quickest way, once we determine the problem and send you a replacement part, is that we can talk you through over the phone on how to fit it.

If it is deemed by our service tech that it is too difficult, we can arrange (where available) a service technician.

NOTE. If we arrange for a service technician ( where applicable) and it is found that it is not a manufactures fault and found to be an assembly issue , normal wear and tear, transport damage or misuse then there will be a call out fee of \$140 depending on location. (Surcharge applies for non-metro areas)
