MAINTENANCE AND TROUBLESHOOTING Inspect and tighten all parts of the elliptical exerciser regularly. Replace any worn parts immediately. To clean the elliptical exerciser, use a damp cloth and a small amount of mild soap. IMPORTANT: To avoid damage to the console, keep liquids away from the console and keep the console out of direct sunlight. Next, see the drawing below and locate the Reed Switch (21). Loosen, but do not remove, the indicated M4 x 16mm Screw (72). Slide the Reed Switch slightly closer to or away from the Magnet (18) on the Pulley (13). HOW TO ADJUST THE DRIVE BELT If the pedals slip while you are pedaling, even while the resistance is adjusted to the highest setting, the drive belt may need to be adjusted. To adjust the drive belt, see assembly step 11 on page 10 and remove the Left Pedal Leg (24) and the Left Link Arm (25). Then, see EXPLODED DRAWING A near the end of this manual and remove the M6 x 25mm Button Screw (61) from the center of the left Crank Arm Cover (32), and then carefully remove the left Crank Arm Cover. Next, remove all the screws from the left side shield, and then carefully remove the left side shield. Loosen, but do not remove, the three 80 screws (A). Insert 10 the shaft of a screwdriver down- ward between the Idler (12) and the pulley located on 12 the Eddy Mechanism (10). Pull the top of the A screwdriver toward the rear of the elliptical exerciser until the Belt (80) is tight, and then tighten the three screws. Reattach the left side shield and the left crank arm cover. Then, see step 11 on page 10 and reattach the left pedal leg and the left link arm. HOW TO ADJUST THE REED SWITCH If the console does not display correct feedback, the reed switch should be adjusted. To adjust the reed switch, first see EXPLODED DRAWING A near the end of this manual and loosen the M6 x 25mm Button Screw (61) in the center of the right Crank Arm Cover (32), and then carefully rotate the right Crank Arm Cover out of the way. 31 18 13 72 21 Then, retighten the M4 x 16mm Screw (72). Turn one of the Crank Arms (31) for a moment. Repeat until the console displays correct feedback. When the Reed Switch is correctly adjusted, replace the crank arm cover. CONSOLE TROUBLESHOOTING If the console display becomes dim, the batteries should be replaced; most console problems are the result of low batteries. See assembly step 5 on page 7 for replacement instructions. HANDGRIP PULSE SENSOR TROUBLESHOOTING If the console does not display your heart rate when you hold the handgrip pulse sensor, or if the displayed heart rate appears to be too high or too low, see step 5 on page 14. HOW TO LEVEL THE ELLIPTICAL EXERCISER If the elliptical exerciser rocks slightly on your floor during use, see HOW TO LEVEL THE ELLIPTICAL EXERCISER on page 11. HOW TO GREASE THE ROLLERS See the EXPLODED DRAWING near the end of this manual. If the Rollers (27) squeak when moving on the Track (2), apply the contents of the included packet of white marine grease equally to each Roller. Spread the grease evenly around the Rollers. Pedal the elliptical exerciser until a thin film of grease is distributed along the Track; wipe off any excess grease. 17
