STABILIZING THE ELLIPTICAL TRAINER

After positioning the Elliptical Trainer in its intended location, check the unit’s stability. 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

X6700HRT

is self-powered, requiring no external power source. When a user strides at a speed above 40 strides per minute (SPM), 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.
