Operating Instruction
Workload device
When pedalling the subject stores energy in the flywheel. The flywheel is then braked by means of a
brake belt/cord which runs around the flywheel. The
workload is changed either by using other pedalling
speed or by increasing or decreasing the tension of
the brake belt/cord against the flywheel by using the
tension knob(2). A change of brake force is showed in
the window(1). See g: Workload device.
Cycle adjustments
The pedalling unit can be moved forward or backward and locked in a comfortable position. To move
the unit pull the catch(1) and place the pedals at a
suitable distance. Let go of the catch and make sure
that it locks (a ”click sound”). The back support can
also be adjusted up and down to a comfortable position by loosing the knob(2). See fig: Adjustments.
