As you assemble the elliptical crosstrainer, use the drawings below to identify the small parts used in assembly.
The number in parenthesis below each drawing refers to the key number of the part, from the PART LIST on
page 22. The second number refers to the quantity used in assembly. Note: Some small parts may have been

pre-assembled for shipping. If a part is not in the parts bag, check to see if it has been pre-assembled.

1. Identify the Front Stabilizer (10), which has Wheels (22)

attached to it. While another person lifts the front of the
Frame (1), attach the Front Stabilizer to the Frame
with two M10 x 75mm Carriage Bolts (34) and two
M10 Nylon Locknuts (33). Make sure that the Front

Stabilizer is turned so the Wheels are not touching
the floor.

slack. While holding the upper end of the
Extension Wire Harness, insert the Upright into the

Frame (1). Do not pinch the Wire Harnesses.

Next, turn the Upright Knob (43) counterclockwise sev­eral turns. Pull the Knob, slide the Upright (2) down
until the Knob is aligned with one of the adjustment
holes, and then release the Knob. Do not tighten the
Knob yet.
