INDOOR CYCLE OPERATION

HOW TO MOVE THE INDOOR CYCLE
Due to the weight of the Indoor Cycle, it is recommended that two persons move it. While one person lifts the back of the indoor cycle, the second person firmly holds the handlebar and tips the indoor cycle forward until it rolls on the wheels. Carefully move the Indoor Cycle to the desired location and then lower it.
If the Indoor Cycle rocks on the floor after being set down, turn the leveling feet underneath the front or rear stabilizer until the rocking motion is eliminated.
WARNING
To reduce the risk of injury, use extreme caution while moving the indoor cycle. Do not attempt to move it over uneven surfaces and make sure there’s a safety space of 20 inch (minimum) to the nearest equipment is recommended.

LOCATION OF THE INDOOR CYCLE
Place the Indoor Cycle on a level surface. There should be 2 feet (60 cm) of each side surround the Indoor Cycle. Do not place the cycle in any area that will block any vent or air openings. The Indoor Cycle should not be located in a garage, covered patio, near water or outdoors.

HOW TO ADJUST THE INDOOR CYCLE
The Indoor Cycle can be adjusted for maximum comfort and exercise effectiveness. The instructions below describe one approach to adjusting the Indoor Cycle to ensure optimal user comfort and ideal body positioning; you may choose to adjust the Indoor Cycle differently.
B
A |
SADDLE ADJUSTMENT |
Proper saddle height helps ensure maximum |
|
|
exercise efficiency and comfort, while |
|
reducing the risk of injury. Adjust the saddle |
|
height to make sure it’s in proper position, |
|
one that keeps a slightly bend in your knee |
|
while your legs are in the extended position. |
HANDLEBAR ADJUSTMENT
Proper position for the handlebar is based primarily on comfort. Typically, the handlebar should be positioned slightly higher than the saddle for beginning cyclists. Advanced cyclists could try different heights to get the arrangement most suitable for you.

|
Do not adjust the handlebar height beyond the stop mark on the stem.
The pedal straps should be adjusted to hold the foot snugly in the pedal.
TO ADJUST THE SADDLE HEIGHT:
Rotate the adjustment lever counterclockwise and adjust the saddle to a comfortable pedaling position. Rotate the lever clockwise to lock saddle position.
TO ADJUST THE HANDLEBAR HEIGHT:
Rotate the adjustment lever counterclockwise to adjust the handlebar height. Raise or lower the handlebar to the desired height. Rotate the lever clockwise to lock handlebar position.
TO ADJUST THE SADDLE HORIZONTAL POSITION: |
TO ADJUST THE PEDAL STRAPS: |
Rotate the adjustment lever counterclockwise to slide the saddle forward or backward as desired. Rotate the lever clockwise to lock saddle position. Test the saddle slide for proper operation.
6
Place each foot ankle on the pedal and in the toe clip that the foot ankle is centered over the pedal spindle (center of the |
|
pedal). Rotate one foot to arms reach and pull up on the toe clip strap. Repeat for the other foot. Keep your knees over your |
|
feet as you pedal. To remove your foot from the toe clip, loosen the strap and pull out. |
7 |
|
TENSION CONTROL AND EMERGENCY BRAKE
The preferred level of difficulty in pedaling (resistance) can be regulated in increments by use of the tension control
lever. To increase the resistance, push the tension control lever downward towards the ground. To decrease the resistance, pull the handle upwards.
IMPORTANT: |
Tension control lever |
• To stop the flywheel while pedaling, push down hard on the |
Emergency brake |
tension control lever until the brake rubs on the flywheel. |
|
• The flywheel should quickly come to a complete stop. |
|
• Make sure your shoes are fixed into the toe clip. |
|
• Apply full resistance load when the bike is not in use to |
|
prevent injuries due to moving drive gear components. |
|
|
STOP |
WARNING |
|
The Indoor Cycle does not have a free moving flywheel; the |
|
pedals will continue to move together with the flywheel |
|
until the flywheel stops. Reducing speed in a controlled |
|
manner is required. To stop the flywheel immediately, |
|
push down hard the tension control lever. Always pedal |
|
in a controlled manner and adjust your desired cadence |
|
according to your own abilities. Push the tension control |
|
lever down = emergency stop. |
|
WARNING
The Indoor Cycle uses a fixed flywheel that builds momentum and will keep the pedals turning even after the user stops pedaling or if the user’s feet slip off. DO NOT ATTEMPT TO REMOVE YOUR FEET FROM THE PEDALS OR DISMOUNT THE MACHINE UNTIL BOTH THE PEDALS AND THE FLYWHEEL HAVE COMPLETELY STOPPED. Failure to follow these instructions may lead to loss of control and the potential for serious injury.
ASSEMBLY
WARNING
There are several areas during the assembly process that special attention must be paid. It is very important to follow the assembly instructions correctly and to make sure all parts are firmly tightened. If the assembly instructions are not followed correctly, the indoor cycle could have parts that are not tightened and will seem loose and may cause irritating noises. To prevent damage to the indoor cycle, the assembly instructions must be reviewed and corrective actions should be taken.
Before proceeding, find your indoor cycle’s serial number located on the front stabilizer of the cycle and enter it in the space provided below.
