ASSEMBLY

Assembly requires two persons. Place all parts of the exercise cycle in a cleared area and remove the packing

materials. Do not dispose of the packing materials until assembly is completed.

Assembly requires the included tools and your own adjustable wrench .

Use the drawings below to identify the small parts used in assembly. The number in parenthesis below each drawing refers to the key number of the part, from the PART LIST on page 14. The second number refers to the quantity needed for assembly. Note: Some small parts may have been pre-attached for shipping. If a part is

not in the parts bag, check to see if it has been pre-assembled.

1. Identify the Front Stabilizer (15). While another person

lifts the front of the Frame (1), attach the Front Stabilizer to the Frame with four M8 x 40mm Button Screws (54) and four M8 Split Washers (55).

2. While another person lifts the rear of the Frame (1),

attach the Rear Stabilizer (16) to the Frame with four M8 x 40mm Button Screws (54) and four M8 Split Washers (55).

3. While another person holds the Upright (2) in the posi-

tion shown, connect the Upper Wire Harness (42) to the Lower Wire Harness (43). Carefully pull the

upper end of the Upper Wire Harness to remove the slack from the Wire Harnesses.

Make sure that the Upright (2) is turned so the top slopes down in the direction shown. Slide the Upright onto the Frame (1). Be careful to avoid pinching the Wire Harnesses (42, 43). Attach the Upright to

the Frame with four M8 x 40mm Button Screws (54) and four M8 Split Washers (55).

4. Hold the Handlebar (3) near the Upright (2). Feed the

Upper Wire Harness (42) up through the indicated hole in the Handlebar. Attach the Handlebar to the Upright with two M8 x 25mm Patch Screws (59) and two M8 Split Washers (55). Be careful to avoid pinching the

Upper Wire Harness.

6. Turn the Seat Post Knob (20) counterclockwise two or

three turns to loosen it. Next, pull the Knob, raise the Seat Post (8) a few inches, and then release the Knob.

Move the Seat Post up and down slightly until the pin on the Knob snaps into one of the holes in the Seat Post. Then, turn the Knob clockwise until it is

tight. Attach the Seat Bracket (7) to the Seat Post (8) with

two M8 x 25mm Patch Screws (59). Make sure that

the Seat Bracket is oriented so the slot is on the indicated side.

7. Attach the Seat (9) to the Seat Carriage (11) with four

M8 Nylon Locknuts (63) and four M8 Split Washers (55). Note: The Nylon Locknuts and Split Washers may be pre-attached to the underside of the Seat.

Slide the Seat Carriage (11) into the Seat Bracket (7). Move the Seat to the desired position. Insert the Seat Knob (10) into the slot in the side of the Seat Bracket, and tighten the Seat Knob into the Seat Carriage.

5. Have another person hold the Console (4) near the

Handlebar (3). Connect the Upper Wire Harness (42) to the wire har-

ness on the Console (4). Locate the two ground wires that are connected with a screw to the Handlebar (3). Connect the two ground wires to the two smallest wires on the Console. Next, locate the two pulse wires extending from the Handlebar. Connect each pulse

wire to the wire of the same color on the Console.

Snap the Handlebar Cover (5) onto the Handlebar (3). Carefully insert all excess wires into the Console (4).

Attach the Console to the metal plate on the Handlebar (3) with four M4 x 16mm Screws (57). Be careful to

avoid pinching the wires.

9. Make sure that all parts are properly tightened before you use the exercise cycle. Note: After assembly is

completed, some extra parts may be left over. Place a mat beneath the exercise cycle to protect the floor.

8. Identify the Left Pedal (22), which is marked with an

“L.” Using an adjustable wrench, firmly tighten the Left Pedal counterclockwise into the Left Crank Arm (24). Tighten the Right Pedal (not shown) clockwise into the Right Crank Arm. Important: Tighten both

Pedals as firmly as possible. After using the exercise cycle for one week, retighten the Pedals. For best performance, the Pedals must be kept tightened.

Identify the Left Pedal Strap (25), which is marked with an “L.” Attach the Left Pedal Strap to the Left Pedal (22), and adjust it to the desired position. Adjust the Right Pedal Strap (not shown) in the same way.

INSTALLING THE RECEIVER FOR THE OPTIONAL CHEST PULSE SENSOR

If you purchase the optional chest pulse sensor (see page 19), follow the steps below to install the receiver included with the chest pulse sensor.

1. Remove the four recessed screws (not shown) from the

underside of the Console (4). Do not remove the

screws attaching the Console to the metal plate on the Handlebar (3).

Push the two water bottle holders up out of the Console (4).

Carefully lift the fan and the top of the Console (4) in the locations shown at the right; do not let the fan

slide out of the top of the Console. Note: It will be necessary to turn the top of the Console slightly to lift it past the Handlebar (3).

2. While another person holds the top of the Console (4)

and the fan in a vertical position, slide the receiver onto the indicated plastic pin on the Console; make sure

that the receiver is oriented exactly as shown.

Locate the two small screws included with the chest pulse sensor. Attach the receiver to the Console with the two screws as shown.

Connect the wire on the receiver to the indicated wire on the Console (4).

Refer to step 1 above. Lower the top of the Console (4) and the fan. Make sure that no wires are pinched. Reattach the top of the Console with the four screws removed in step 1. Discard any extra wires included with the chest pulse sensor.

HOW TO OPERATE THE EXERCISE CYCLE

HOW TO MOVE AND LEVEL THE EXERCISE CYCLE

Stand in front of the exercise cycle, hold the handlebars firmly, and placed your foot against one of the wheels. Tip the exercise cycle until it can be moved on the wheels. Carefully move the exercise cycle to the desired location and then lower it. Due to the weight of the exercise

cycle, use extreme caution while moving it.

If the exercise cycle rocks slightly during use, turn the leveling feet under the rear stabilizer until the rocking motion is eliminated.

HOW TO ADJUST THE SEAT POST

For effective exercise, the seat should be at the proper height. As you pedal, there should be a slight bend in your knees when the pedals are in the lowest position. To adjust the height of the seat, first turn the seat post knob counterclockwise two or three turns

to loosen it (if the knob is not loosened enough, it may scratch the seat post). Next, pull the knob, slide the seat post to the desired height, and then release the knob. Move the seat post up and down slightly until

the pin on the knob snaps into one of the holes in the seat post. Then, turn the knob clockwise until it is

tight.

HOW TO ADJUST THE SEAT

The seat can be adjusted to the position that is the most comfortable for you.

Before adjusting the seat, dismount the exercise cycle; do not adjust the seat while you are sitting on it. To

adjust the seat, first turn the seat knob counterclockwise two or three turns to loosen it. Slide the seat forward or backward to the desired position, and then firmly tighten the seat knob.

HOW TO ADJUST THE PEDAL STRAPS

The pedal straps can be adjusted to the position that is the most comfortable for you. Press the tabs on the pedals, adjust the straps to the desired position, and then release the tabs.
