MAINTENANCE AND TROUBLESHOOTING

MAINTENANCE

Regular maintenance is important for optimal performance and to reduce wear. Inspect and properly tighten all parts each time the elliptical is used. Replace any worn parts immediately.

To clean the elliptical, use a damp cloth and a small amount of mild soap. IMPORTANT: To avoid damage

to the console, keep liquids away from the console and keep the console out of direct sunlight.

CONSOLE TROUBLESHOOTING

Most console problems are the result of low batteries. To replace the batteries, see assembly step 14 on page 13.

If the console does not display your heart rate when you use the handgrip heart rate monitor, see step 5 on page 19.

HOW TO LEVEL THE ELLIPTICAL

If the elliptical rocks slightly on your floor during use, see HOW TO LEVEL THE ELLIPTICAL on page 15.

HOW TO GREASE THE ROLLERS

To adjust the reed switch, first use a standard screwdriver and carefully pry the Accessory Tray (50) upward off the Right and Left Shields (48, 49).

Next, locate the Reed Switch (33). Turn the Pulley (15) until a Magnet (65) is aligned with the Reed Switch.

See the EXPLODED DRAWING near the end of this manual. If the Rollers (16) squeak when moving on the

Track (11), apply a small amount of the included PTFE grease to a paper towel. Next, spread a thin layer of grease evenly along the Track where the Rollers move. Then, wipe off any excess grease.

HOW TO ADJUST THE REED SWITCH

If the console does not display correct feedback, the reed switch should be adjusted.

Slightly loosen the indicated M4 x 16mm Screw (56). Slide the Reed Switch (33) slightly closer to or away from the Magnet (65), and then retighten the Screw. Then, rock the Pulley (15) forward and backward just enough that the Magnet passes the Reed Switch repeatedly.

Repeat these actions until the console displays correct feedback. When the reed switch is correctly adjusted, reattach the accessory tray.

HOW TO ADJUST THE DRIVE BELT

If the pedals slip while you are pedaling, even while the resistance is adjusted to the highest level, the drive belt may need to be adjusted.

To adjust the drive belt, first use a standard screwdriver and carefully pry the Accessory Tray (50) upward off the Right and Left Shields (48, 49).

Next, remove the M6 Bolt Set (67) from the Right Upper Body Leg (5) and the Right Pedal Arm (9). Then, gently move the Right Pedal Arm out of the way.

See EXPLODED DRAWING A on page 30. Identify the Right and Left Shields (48, 49). Remove the M4 x 16mm Screws (56) and the M4 x 16mm Selftapping Screws (57) from the Right and Left Shields; make sure to note the location of each Screw. Then, gently remove the Right Shield.

Next, locate and loosen the M6 x 20mm Screw (25). Tighten the M10 x 55mm Screw (20) until the Drive Belt (55) is tight. Then, retighten the Screw.

52, 53

Then, remove the M8 x 20mm Screw (61), the Axle Cover (44), and the M8 Washer (not shown) from the Right Roller Arm (7) and the right Crank Arm (not shown). Gently move the Right Roller Arm out of the way. Then, use a standard screwdriver and gently pry the Outer and Inner Crank Covers (52, 53) off the right Crank Arm.

Then, reattach the parts that you removed.

EXERCISE GUIDELINES

WARNING: Before beginning this

or any exercise program, consult your physician. This is especially important for persons over age 35 or persons with pre-existing health problems.

The heart rate monitor is not a medical device. Various factors may affect the accuracy of heart rate readings. The heart rate monitor is intended only as an exercise aid in determining heart rate trends in general.

These guidelines will help you to plan your exercise program. For detailed exercise information, obtain a reputable book or consult your physician. Remember, proper nutrition and adequate rest are essential for successful results.

EXERCISE INTENSITY

Whether your goal is to burn fat or to strengthen your cardiovascular system, exercising at the proper intensity is the key to achieving results. You can use your heart rate as a guide to find the proper intensity level. The chart below shows recommended heart rates for fat burning and aerobic exercise.

Burning Fat—To burn fat effectively, you must exercise at a low intensity level for a sustained period of time. During the first few minutes of exercise, your body uses carbohydrate calories for energy. Only after the first few minutes of exercise does your body begin to use stored fat calories for energy. If your goal is to burn fat, adjust the intensity of your exercise until your heart rate is near the lowest number in your training zone. For maximum fat burning, exercise with your heart rate near the middle number in your training zone.

Aerobic Exercise—If your goal is to strengthen your cardiovascular system, you must perform aerobic exercise, which is activity that requires large amounts of oxygen for prolonged periods of time. For aerobic exercise, adjust the intensity of your exercise until your heart rate is near the highest number in your training zone.

WORKOUT GUIDELINES

Warming Up—Start with 5 to 10 minutes of stretch-

ing and light exercise. A warm-up increases your body temperature, heart rate, and circulation in preparation for exercise.

Training Zone Exercise—Exercise for 20 to 30 minutes with your heart rate in your training zone. (During the first few weeks of your exercise program, do not keep your heart rate in your training zone for longer than 20 minutes.) Breathe regularly and deeply as you exercise ; never hold your breath.

To find the proper intensity level, find your age at the bottom of the chart (ages are rounded off to the nearest ten years). The three numbers listed above your age define your “training zone.” The lowest number is the heart rate for fat burning, the middle number is the heart rate for maximum fat burning, and the highest number is the heart rate for aerobic exercise.

Cooling Down—Finish with 5 to 10 minutes of stretching. Stretching increases the flexibility of your muscles and helps to prevent post-exercise problems.

EXERCISE FREQUENCY

To maintain or improve your condition, complete three workouts each week, with at least one day of rest between workouts. After a few months of regular exercise, you may complete up to five workouts each week, if desired. Remember, the key to success is to make exercise a regular and enjoyable part of your everyday life.

SUGGESTED STRETCHES

The correct form for several basic stretches is shown at the right. Move slowly as you stretch; never bounce.

1. Toe Touch Stretch

Stand with your knees bent slightly and slowly bend forward from your hips. Allow your back and shoulders to relax as you reach down toward your toes as far as possible. Hold for 15 counts, then relax. Repeat 3 times. Stretches: Hamstrings, back of knees and back.

2. Hamstring Stretch

Sit with one leg extended. Bring the sole of the opposite foot toward you and rest it against the inner thigh of your extended leg. Reach toward your toes as far as possible. Hold for 15 counts, then relax. Repeat 3 times for each leg. Stretches: Hamstrings, lower back and groin.

3. Calf/Achilles Stretch

With one leg in front of the other, reach forward and place your hands against a wall. Keep your back leg straight and your back foot flat on the floor. Bend your front leg, lean forward and move your hips toward the wall. Hold for 15 counts, then relax. Repeat 3 times for each leg. To cause further stretching of the achilles tendons, bend your back leg as well. Stretches: Calves, achilles tendons and ankles.

4. Quadriceps Stretch

With one hand against a wall for balance, reach back and grasp one foot with your other hand. Bring your heel as close to your buttocks as possible. Hold for 15 counts, then relax. Repeat 3 times for each leg. Stretches: Quadriceps and hip muscles.

5. Inner Thigh Stretch

Sit with the soles of your feet together and your knees outward. Pull your feet toward your groin area as far as possible. Hold for 15 counts, then relax. Repeat 3 times. Stretches: Quadriceps and hip muscles.
