Recumbent Operation & Adjustment

POWER

Your programmable recumbent bike is powered by a power supply. The power supply must be plugged into the power jack, which is located in the front of the machine near the front foot tube.

LEVELING

Once you have placed the recumbent bike where you intend to use it, raise or lower the adjustable leveler located under the rear portion of the side cover. Once you have leveled the recumbent bike, lock the levelers in place by tightening the wing nuts against the frame.

MOVING

Your Horizon Fitness recumbent bike has a pair of transport wheels built into the front of the frame. To move, firmly grasp the vertical seat post and one of the side handlebars. Carefully lift and roll.
