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

In addition to the included tool(s), assembly requires a Phillips screwdriver , an adjustable wrench , and a rubber mallet .

As you assemble the elliptical exerciser, use the drawings below to identify small parts. The number in parentheses below each drawing is the key number of the part, from the PART LIST near the end of this manual. The number following the parentheses is the quantity needed for assembly. Note: If a part is not in the hardware

kit, check to see if it has been preassembled.

To make assembly easier, read the information on page 5 before you begin.

ronic components. Press the two tabs on the

battery cover and remove it. Next, orient four batteries as shown by the markings inside the battery compartment, and insert the batteries into the Console. Then, reattach the battery cover.
