Determine which leveler is not resting completely on the floor. Loosen the wing nut to the base of the leveler to allow the leveler to rotate. Now rotate the leveler to the left or right until the Bike is stable. Lock the adjustment by tightening the wing nut against the rear foot support.

PLACEMENT IN YOUR HOME

Please follow the safety instructions to place the Bike in the location where it will best be used. It is important that you place your Bike in a comfortable and inviting room. Avoid putting your Bike in an unfinished basement or undesirable setting. Exercise adherence will be achieved only if you exercise in an attractive setting.
