1. Identify the Front Stabiliser (3), which has Wheels (32) attached to it. Whilst another person lifts the front of the Frame (1), attach the Front Stabiliser to the Frame with two M10 x 112mm Carriage Bolts (34) and two M10 Nylon Locknuts (29). Make sure that the Front

Stabiliser is turned so the Wheels are not touching the floor.

2. Whilst another person lifts the back of the Frame (1), attach the Rear Stabiliser (4) to the Frame with two M10 x 112mm Carriage Bolts (34) and two M10 Nylon Locknuts (29).

3. Whilst another person holds the Upright (2) in the position shown, connect the Upper Wire Harness (86) to the Lower Wire Harness (87). Carefully pull the

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

Insert the Upright (2) into the front of the Frame (1) as shown. Be careful to avoid pinching the Wire Harnesses (86, 87). Slide an M10 Split Washer (70) and a Frame Spacer (83) onto the M10 x 88mm Button Bolt (63), and insert the Button Bolt into the Frame and the Upright. Make sure that the concave end of the

Frame Spacer is turned toward the Frame. Do not tighten the Button Bolt at this time.

4. Connect the wire harness on the Handgrip Pulse Sensor (81) to the indicated wire harness on the Console (5). Insert both wire harnesses into the opening in the bottom of the Console.

Refer to the inset drawing. Insert the metal tube on the Handgrip Pulse Sensor (81) into the metal bracket inside the Console (5) as shown. Be careful to avoid pinching the wire harnesses. Align the holes in the metal tube with the holes in the metal bracket, and tighten two M4 x 16mm Screws (66) into the indicated holes.

7. Hold the lower end of the left Handlebar Leg (79) inside

of the Front Flex Bracket (17) on the left Flex Bar (14). Apply grease to an M10 x 78mm Button Bolt (27).

Attach the left Handlebar Leg (79) to the Front Flex Bracket (17) with the Button Bolt, two M10 Washers (38), and an M10 Nylon Locknut (29). Do not over-

tighten the Nylon Locknut; the left Handlebar Leg must be able to pivot freely.

Attach the right Handlebar Leg (79) to the right Front Flex Bracket (17) in the same way.

Refer to step 6. Tighten the M8 x 45mm Bolts (91) in the Handlebar Legs (79). Refer to step 3. Tighten the M10 x 88mm Button Bolt (63).

5. The Console (5) requires four 1,5 V (“D”) batteries; alkaline batteries are recommended. Refer to the inset drawing. Press the tab on the battery cover, and lift off the battery cover. Insert four batteries into the battery compartment. Make sure that the batteries are ori-

ented as shown by the diagram inside the battery compartment. Reattach the battery cover.

Whilst another person holds the Console (5) in the position shown, connect the wire harness on the Console to the Upper Wire Harness (86). Insert the excess wire harness into the Upright (2). Next, attach the Console to the Upright with three M10 x 27mm Screws (71) and three M10 Split Washers (70). Be

careful to avoid pinching the wire harnesses.

Snap the bookrack onto the Console (5) where shown.

6. Identify the Left Handlebar (9), which is marked with a

sticker. Insert the Left Handlebar into one of the Handlebar Legs (79); make sure that the Handlebar

Leg is turned so the hexagonal holes are on the indicated side. Attach the Left Handlebar to a

Handlebar Leg with two M8 x 45mm Bolts (91) and two M8 Nylon Locknuts (46). Make sure that the Nylon

Locknuts are inside of the hexagonal holes. Do not fully tighten the Bolts yet.

Apply a small amount of the included grease to the left and right axles on the Upright (2).

Carefully slide an Upright Spacer (26), a Handlebar Spacer (25), the Left Handlebar (9), and a Handlebar Cap (23) onto the left axle on the Upright (2) as shown. Slide an M10.3 Black Washer (53) onto an M8 x 19mm Button Screw (22), and tighten the Button Screw into the axle.

1. Remove the four indicated screws from the back of the

Console (5). Lift off the front of the Console.

2. Plug the jumper wire (A) into the indicated jack on the

Console (5). Connect the other end of the jumper wire to the wire on the receiver (B). Note: Any other wires included with the chest pulse sensor can be discarded.

Next, peel the paper off the adhesive pad on the back of the receiver (B). Orient the receiver as shown, and press it onto the Console (5) in the indicated location.

Refer to step 1 above. Reattach the front of the Console (5) with the four screws. Make sure that no

wires are pinched.

9. Make sure that all parts of the elliptical crosstrainer are properly tightened. Note: Some hardware may

be left over after assembly is completed. To protect the floor or carpet from damage, place a mat under the elliptical crosstrainer.

8. Identify the Left Pedal (13). Attach the Left Pedal to the

left Flex Bar (14) with an Adjustment Bolt (20), an M10 Washer (38), and an Adjustment Knob (15) as shown. Note: The Left Pedal can be attached in any of five positions (see HOW TO ADJUST THE PEDALS on page 9).
