Assembly instructions have been provided with your Cycle. For your safety, please read and

CAUTION Use of the wrong power supply may cause damage to your Cycle and/or entertainment device.
Locate a level stable surface to position Cycle. The Cycle has four leveling feet located under
the foot support. If your Cycle wobbles in the location where you intended to use it, loosen
the lock nut on the adjusting foot and adjust the feet until stable. Once level, lock the
adjusting feet by tightening the lock nut to the frame.
1.2 PREVENTATIVE MAINTENANCE AND CLEANING TIPS
Preventative maintenance and daily cleaning will prolong the life and look of your MATRIX
FITNESS equipment.
Please read and follow these tips.
Position the equipment away from direct sunlight. The intense UV light can cause discoloration or plastics.
