CONDITIONING GUIDELINES
Place all parts of the exercise bike 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, two adjustable
wrenches , and a phillips screwdriver .
To identify the small parts used in assembly, refer to the drawings below. The number in parenthesis below each
drawing refers to the key number of the part, from the part list on page 11. The second number refers to the
quantity used in assembly. Note: If a part is not in the parts bag, check to see if it has been pre-assembled.
The following guidelines will help you to plan your
exercise program. Remember that proper nutrition and
adequate rest are essential for successful results.
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.
EXERCISE INTENSITY
Whether your goal is to burn fat or to strengthen your
cardiovascular system, the key to achieving the
desired results is to exercise with the proper intensity.
The proper intensity level can be found by using your
heart rate as a guide. The chart below shows recommended heart rates for fat burning, maximum fat burning, and cardiovascular (aerobic) exercise.
Aerobic Exercise
If your goal is to strengthen your cardiovascular system, your exercise must be Òaerobic.Ó Aerobic exercise is activity that requires large amounts of oxygen
for prolonged periods of time. This increases the
demand on the heart to pump blood to the muscles,
and on the lungs to oxygenate the blood. For aerobic
exercise, adjust the intensity of your exercise until
your heart rate is near the largest number in your
training zone.
HOW TO MEASURE YOUR HEART RATE
To measure your heart
rate, first exercise for
at least four minutes.
Then, stop exercising
and place two
fingers on your wrist as
shown. Take a six-second heartbeat count,
and multiply the result
by 10 to find your heart
rate. For example, if your six-second heartbeat count
is 14, your heart rate is 140 beats per minute. (A sixsecond count is used because your heart rate will
drop rapidly when you stop exercising.)
1. Press two 2Ó x 3Ó Endcaps (48) into the Rear
Stabilizer (61).
Position the Rear Stabilizer (61) under the
angled bracket on the rear of the Frame (1).
Make sure that the Rear Stabilizer is turned so
the recessed holes are on the bottom. Attach the
Rear Stabilizer with two M10 x 58mm Carriage
Bolts (59) and two M10 Nylon Locknuts (58).
2. Press two 2Ó x 3Ó Endcaps (48) into the Front
Stabilizer (60). Attach a Wheel (47) to one of the
brackets on the Front Stabilizer with an M10 x
45mm Button Head Screw (46) and an M10
Nylon Locknut (58). Attach a Wheel to the other
bracket on the Front Stabilizer in the same way.
Position the Front Stabilizer (60) under the
angled bracket on the front of the Frame (1).
Make sure that the Front Stabilizer is turned so
the recessed holes are on the bottom. Attach the
Front Stabilizer with two M10 x 58mm Carriage
Bolts (59) and two M10 Nylon Locknuts (58).

To find the proper heart rate for you, first find your age
at the bottom of the chart (ages are rounded off to the
nearest ten years). Next, find the three numbers
above your age. The three numbers are your Òtraining
zone.Ó The smallest number is the recommended
heart rate for fat burning; the middle number is the
heart rate for maximum fat burning; the largest
number is the heart rate for aerobic exercise.
Burning Fat
To burn fat effectively, you must exercise at a relatively low intensity level for a sustained period of time.
During the first few minutes of exercise, your body
uses easily accessible carbohydrate calories for ener-
gy. 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 smallest
number in your training zone as you exercise.
For maximum fat burning, adjust the intensity of your
exercise until your heart rate is near the middle number in your training zone as you exercise.
WORKOUT GUIDELINES
Each workout should include the following three
important parts: A warm-up, consisting of 5 to 10 minutes of stretching and light exercise. A proper warmup increases your body temperature, heart rate, and
circulation in preparation for exercise. Training zone
exercise, consisting of 20 to 30 minutes of exercising
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.) A cool-down, with 5 to 10 minutes of
stretching. This will increase the flexibility of your muscles and will help to prevent post-exercise problems.
EXERCISE FREQUENCY
To maintain or improve your condition, plan three
workouts each week, with at least one day of rest
between workouts. After a few months of regular exercise, you may plan up to five workouts each week, if
desired. Caution: Be sure to progress at your own
pace and avoid overdoing it. Incorrect or excessive training may result in injury to your health.
Remember, the key to success is to make exercise a
regular and enjoyable part of your everyday life.

MAINTENANCE AND TROUBLE-SHOOTING
Inspect and tighten all parts of the PROFORM¨775S
regularly. The 775S can be cleaned with a soft, damp
cloth. To prevent damage to the console, keep liquids
away and keep the console out of direct sunlight.
BATTERY REPLACEMENT
If the console does not function properly, the batteries
should be replaced. To replace the batteries, refer to
assembly step 8 on page 6.
HOW TO ADJUST THE REED SWITCH
If the console does not display correct feedback, the
reed switch should be adjusted. In order to adjust the

HOW TO ADJUST THE DRIVE BELT
If the you can feel the pedals slip when you are exercising, especially when the resistance knob is turned
to the maximum setting, the Drive Belt (19) may need
to be adjusted. To adjust the Drive Belt, both side
shields must be removed. Refer to the instructions at
the left to remove the left side shield. Remove the
right side shield in the same manner.
Loosen the M8
