Upper Body Arms Ramp Handle Latch Button Ramp Handlebars Pedals To lower the ramp, press the latch button, pull the ramp handle, and lower the ramp to the desired incline level. Then, release the latch button and engage the latch pin into one of the adjustment holes in the frame. Make sure that the latch pin is firmly engaged in one of the adjustment holes in the frame. HOW TO EXERCISE ON THE ELLIPTICAL See the drawing at the right. To mount the elliptical, hold the handlebars or the upper body arms and step onto the pedal that is in the lower position. Then, step onto the other pedal. Push the pedals until they begin to move with a continuous motion. Note: The pedals can turn in either direction. It is recommended that you turn the pedals in the direction shown by the arrow; however, for variety, you can turn the pedals in the opposite direction. To dismount the elliptical, wait until the pedals come to a complete stop. Note: The elliptical does not have a free wheel; the pedals will continue to move until the flywheel stops. When the pedals are stationary, step off the higher pedal first. Then, step off the lower pedal. 16
