HOW TO OPERATE THE EXERCISE CYCLE

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 indicated 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 whilst you are sitting on it. To

adjust the seat, first turn the indicated knob counterclockwise two or three turns to loosen it (if the knob is not loosened enough, it may scratch the seat bracket). Next, pull the knob, slide the seat to the desired position, and then release the knob. Move the seat bracket forward and back-

ward slightly until the pin on the knob snaps into one of the holes in the seat bracket. Then, turn the

knob clockwise until it is tight.

HOW TO ADJUST THE UPRIGHT

The upright can be adjusted to the height that is the most comfortable for you. To adjust the upright, first turn the indicated knob counterclockwise two or three turns to loosen it (if the knob is not loosened enough, it may scratch the upright). Next, pull the knob, slide the upright to the desired height, and then release the knob. Move the upright up and down slightly

until the pin on the knob snaps into one of the holes in the upright. Then, turn the knob clockwise

until it is tight.
