SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS _
INSTRUCTIONS
The following fitness safeguards and operating precautions are directed to purchasers and users of STAR TRAC group cycles. Club
Managers should ensure that members and fitness staff are trained to follow these same instructions. Failure to follow these safeguards
may result in injury or serious health risk.
FITNESS SAFEGUARDS
• Make your physician aware of any proposed fitness regimen before embarking on any exercise program.
• Discuss any health problems with your physician before beginning an exercise regimen.
• Stop operating the cycle if you feel faint, dizzy or tired.
• Preventive maintenance must be performed in accordance with the guidelines specified in the Preventive Maintenance section
of this manual to assure optimum performance of the cycle.
OPERATING PRECAUTIONS
Persons exceeding 350 pounds (159 kg) may not use this product.
Ensure that adjustment knobs (seat height, seat fore-and-aft) are properly secured and do not interfere with range of motion
during exercise.
• Do not use the cycle without proper footwear. NEVER operate the cycle with bare feet.
• Do not attempt to ride the cycle in a standing position at high RPMs until you have practiced at slower speeds.
• Never remove feet from the pedals while still in motion.
• Never attempt to abruptly stop the pedals, especially at high RPMs.
• Do not dismount the cycle until the pedals are at a complete STOP.
• After exercising, turn the load adjustment knob clockwise to increase resistance so the pedals will not rotate freely and potentially
injure someone.
• Never turn the pedal crank arms by hand.
• Do not insert any object, hands or feet into any openings, or expose hands, arms or feet to the drive mechanism or other potentially
moving part of the cycle.
• Keep children and pets away from the cycle whenever the machine is in use.
• Do not let children operate the cycle. The cycle mechanism and ergonomics are designed for adult use only.
