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 elliptical could have frame parts that
are not tightened and will seem loose and may cause irritating noises. To prevent damage to the elliptical,
the assembly instructions must be reviewed and corrective actions should be taken.

that you place a protective covering on your floor. During each assembly step, ensure that ALL nuts and
bolts are in place and partially threaded in before completely tightening any ONE bolt.
