LEVELING YOUR ELLIPTICAL TRAINER

If your Elliptical Trainer wobbles when you have placed it where you intend to use it, raise or lower the adjustable levelers located in several places on the underside of your Elliptical Trainer:

1) the rear ends of the pedal arm guide rails,

2) the side stabilizers, and

3) the front foot near the front transport wheels. Once you have leveled the Elliptical Trainer, lock the levelers in place by tightening the winged lock nuts against the underside of your Elliptical Trainer.

FOLDING YOUR ELLIPTICAL TRAINER NOTE:

It is important to always follow the correct order of steps when

folding your Elliptical Trainer.

STEP 1: On the left-hand side of the Elliptical Trainer, locate the arrow on

the side cover that points to the 4 o’clock position of the disk. Rotate the disk so that the arrow is pointing to the disk axle (the point where the disk and pedal arm connect.)

ALL MODELS

STEP 2: When you have aligned the disk as outlined in Step 1, move

around to the right-hand side of the Elliptical Trainer. Simultaneously lift both the Pedal Arm and the Guide Rail upon which it is resting to the vertical position (A). The locking device, which is mounted on the Guide Rail, should now be aligned with the lock-receiving bracket on the backside of the Pedal Arm. Firmly push the Guide Rail until it clicks and locks into position (B). Check that it is secure before proceeding.

Repeat this step with the left-hand Pedal Arm and Guide Rail to completely fold your Elliptical Trainer for compact storage.

ALL MODELS

STEP 3: To unfold your Elliptical Trainer, push the recessed lock button found

on the underside of one Guide Rail (C). Carefully lower both the Pedal Arm and Guide Rail to the floor simultaneously.

Repeat these steps with the other Pedal Arm and Guide Rail to completely unfold your Elliptical Trainer for use.
