Important Safety Instructions

WARNING - Read all instructions before using this appliance.
DANGER - To reduce the risk of electric shock disconnect your elliptical from the electrical

outlet prior to cleaning and/or service work.
WARNING - To reduce the risk of burns, fire, electric shock, or injury to persons, install the
elliptical on a flat level surface with access to a 230-volt, 10-amp grounded outlet with only the
elliptical plugged into the circuit.

DO NOT USE AN EXTENSION CORD UNLESS IT IS A 18AWG OR BETTER, WITH ONLY
ONE OUTLET ON THE END:

1. Do not operate elliptical on deeply padded, plush or shag carpet. Damage to both carpet
and elliptical may result.

2. Keep children away from the elliptical. There are obvious pinch points and other caution
areas that can cause harm.

3. Keep hands away from all moving parts.

4. Never operate the elliptical if it has a damaged cord or plug. If the elliptical is not working
properly, call your dealer.

5. Keep the cord away from heated surfaces.

6. Do not operate where aerosol spray products are being used or where oxygen is being
administered. Sparks from the motor may ignite a highly gaseous environment.

7. Never drop or insert any object into any openings.

8. Do not use outdoors.

9. To disconnect, turn all controls to the off position, then remove the plug from the outlet.

10. Do not attempt to use your elliptical for any purpose other than for the purpose it is
intended.

11. The hand pulse sensors are not medical devices. Their purpose is to provide you with an
approximate measurement in relation to your target heart rate. Use of a chest transmitter
strap (sold separately) is a much more accurate method of heart rate analysis. Various
factors, including the user’s movement, may affect the accuracy of heart rate readings. The
pulse sensors are intended only as exercise aids in determining heart rate trends in
general.

12. Wear proper shoes. High heels, dress shoes, sandals or bare feet are not suitable for use
on your elliptical. Quality athletic shoes are recommended to avoid leg fatigue.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS - THINK SAFETY!

Important Electrical Instructions

WARNING!

NEVER remove any cover without first disconnecting AC power. lf voltage varies by ten percent
(10%) or more, the performance of your elliptical may be affected. Such conditions are not
covered under your warranty. If you suspect the voltage is low, contact your local power
company or a licensed electrician for proper testing.

NEVER expose this elliptical to rain or moisture. This product is NOT designed for use outdoors,
near a pool or spa, or in any other high humidity environment. The operating temperature
specification is 40 to 120 degrees Fahrenheit, and humidity is 95 non-condensing (no water
drops forming on surfaces).

Important Operation Instructions

 NEVER operate this elliptical without reading and completely understanding the results of

any operational change you request from the computer.

 Understand that changes in resistance do not occur immediately. Set your desired

resistance level on the computer console and release the adjustment key. The computer
will obey the command gradually.

 NEVER use your elliptical during an electrical storm. Surges may occur in your household

power supply that could damage elliptical components. Unplug the elliptical during an
electrical storm as a precaution.

 Use caution while participating in other activities while pedaling on your elliptical; such as

watching television, reading, etc. These distractions may cause you to lose balance which
may result in serious injury.

 Do not use excessive pressure on console control keys. They are precision set to function

properly with little finger pressure.

Assembly Instructions

PRE-ASSEMBLY

1. Using a razor knife (Box Cutter), cut the banding straps that wrap around the carton. Reach
under the bottom edge of the carton and pull it away from the cardboard underneath,
separating the staples that join the two together. Lift the box over the unit and unpack.

2. Carefully remove all parts from carton and inspect for any damage or missing parts. If
damaged parts are found, or parts are missing, contact your dealer immediately.

3. Locate the hardware package. The hardware is separated into four steps. Remove the
tools first. Remove the hardware for each step as needed to avoid confusion. The numbers
in the instructions that are in parenthesis (#) are the item number from the assembly
drawing for reference.

STEP 1: Rail Assembly & Console Mast

1. Locate the Console Mast (12) and Console Mast Cover (72); slide the Cover onto the Mast as far
as it will go. Make sure the Console Mast Cover (72) is facing the correct way.

2. At the top opening of the Main Frame (1), there is a Computer Cable (53) tied to a twist tie wire.
Feed the twist tie wire and Computer Cable (53) into the bottom of the Console Mast (12) and out
of the opening at the top.

3. Install the Console Mast (12) into the receiving bracket on the top of the Main Frame (1). Be
extremely careful not to pinch the cables between the tubing. If the cable gets pinched, this may
affect the electrical functions of the console. NOTE: there is one bolt already installed in the
receiving bracket that will engage with the slot at the bottom of the Console Mast. This needs to
be tightened last, after the three other console mast bolts.

4. Place a Split Washer (152) onto the Hex Head Bolt (105) and hand tighten through the left side of
the console mast. Place a Curved Washer (153) onto each Hex Head Bolt (103) and thread both
into the front of the console mast tube. Fasten these front bolts as tight as possible with the
wrench (155). Next firmly tighten the two left side bolts with the same wrench.

5. Connect the two Hand Pulse Cables (47), Resistance Cable (49), and Computer Cable (53) to the
back of the console (43). Do not force the connectors; they will only fit one way and are different
sizes to prevent confusion. Store the excessive cable in the Console Mast tube (12).

6. Attach the Console (43) to the bracket of the Console Mast tube with four Phillips Head Screws
(116). Tighten the screws with the Phillips Head Screw Driver (157).

7. Attach the Rear Floor Support (15) to the Rails (2) with two Button Head Socket Bolts (176) and
Curved Washers (153) on each side. Tighten using the Combination M5 Allen Wrench & Phillips
Head Screw Driver (177).

8. Slide the Rail Assembly into the Main Frame (1). Insert one Button Head Socket Bolt (176)
through each side and attach a Flat Washer (137) and a Nyloc Nut (130) to each joint on the
inside.

STEP 2: Connecting & Lower Swing Arms

1. Slide two Wave Washers (150) onto each side of the Swing Arm Axle. Slide the Lower Swing
Arms (10 Left, 11 Right) onto the axles and secure with the two Hex Head Bolts (99) and Flat
Washers (141). Do not force the Swing Arms onto the axle. They should slide on, but you may
need to jiggle them to get them lined up properly. The Swing Arms have been previously installed
at the factor y so they do fit properly.

2. Remove the tie that holds the spacer in the rod end located at the end of the Right Connecting
Arm (9) and line up the rod end with the bracket at the bottom of the Lower Right Swing Arm (11).
Slide the Hex Head Bolt (101) through the bracket of the Lower Swing Arm and then through the
rod end and spacer. Install the Flat Washer (142) and Nyloc Nut (192) on the bolt and tighten as
much as possible. Repeat this step for the left side. Tighten using the Wrenches (155 & 158).

Phillips Head Screws (115).Tighten all four screws with the Phillips Head Screw Driver (177).

3. Install the Left Handle Bar Covers (81 & 82) and Right Handle Bar Covers (83 & 84) over the
Handle Bar axle connections with four Sheet Metal Screws (119) on each side. Tighten with the
Phillips Head Screw Driver (157).

4. Look closely at the four floor levelers underneath the middle and rear of the elliptical. If any of
these aren’t in contact with the floor, use the Wrench (158) to loosen the bottom nut. Once the nut
has been loosened, turn the rubber caster clockwise until it makes solid contact with the floor.
