ASSEMBLY
It is recommended, when possible, that an authorized VISION FITNESS retailer assemble your Elliptical Trainer. If you have elected to assemble this product yourself, for your safety please read and follow each of the steps in the enclosed assembly instructions. If you have any questions regarding any part or function of your Elliptical Trainer, contact your retailer.
MOVING
Your VISION FITNESS Elliptical Trainer has a pair of transport wheels included for ease of mobility. To move, firmly grasp the handles at the rear of the frame, and roll on the transport wheels.

STABILIZING THEELLIPTICAL TRAINER
After positioning the Elliptical Trainer in its intended location, check its stability by attempting to rock it side to side. Rocking or wobbling indicates that your Elliptical Trainer needs to be leveled. Determine which leveler is not resting completely on the floor. Loosen the nut at the base of the leveler to allow the leveler to rotate. Now rotate the leveler to the left or right until the Elliptical Trainer is stable. Lock the adjustment by tightening the nut against the rear foot support.
SELF-POWERED FEATURE
The X6600HRT is self-powered, requiring no external power source. When a user strides at a speed above 20 revolutions per minute (RPM), the power is generated to allow the Elliptical Trainer to function properly. Because of this self-generating feature, the console feedback will fade away when you cease pedaling. The console does, however, use a 9-volt battery as backup to save your feedback information for 30 seconds from the time you stopped striding. If you resume striding within the 30 seconds, the information will reappear. If the information does not appear within the 30 seconds, your battery may need to be plugged in or replaced.
