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. BATTERY REPLACEMENT If the console display becomes dim, the batteries should be replaced; most console problems are the result of low batteries. See assembly step 12 on page 11 for replacement instructions. HANDGRIP PULSE SENSOR TROUBLESHOOTING If the handgrip pulse sensor does not function properly, see step 5 on page 16.

Rock the Pulley forward and backward just enough that the Magnet passes the Reed Switch repeatedly. Repeat until the console displays correct feedback. When the Reed Switch is correctly adjusted, reattach the side shields, the crank arms, and the link arms. Note: If you have questions as to which screw should be in which hole, see EXPLODED DRAWING B on page 27 and the PART LIST on page 24.

Base Foot If you can feel the pedals slip while you are pedaling, even when the resistance of the pedals is at the highest setting, the Belt (51) may need to be adjusted. First, see step 11 on page 10 and remove the link arms. Next, see step 4 on page 7 and remove the crank arms. HOW TO LEVEL THE ELLIPTICAL EXERCISER Then, remove all the screws from both side shields; there are three sizes of screws in the side shields-note which size of screw you remove from each hole. Then, gently pry the side shields away from the frame. If the elliptical exerciser rocks slightly on your floor during use, see HOW TO LEVEL THE ELLIPTICAL EXERCISER on page 12. HOW TO ADJUST THE REED SWITCH If the console does not display correct feedback, the reed switch should be adjusted. First, see step 11 on page 10 and remove the link arms.

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.
BATTERY REPLACEMENT
If the console display becomes dim, the batteries
should be replaced; most console problems are the
result of low batteries. See assembly step 12 on page
11 for replacement instructions.
HANDGRIP PULSE SENSOR TROUBLESHOOTING
If the handgrip pulse sensor does not function proper-
ly, see step 5 on page 16.
HOW TO ELIMINATE FLEXING IN THE CENTER OF
THE ELLIPTICAL EXERCISER
If the elliptical exer-
ciser flexes in the
center during use,
turn the base foot
until the flexing is
eliminated.
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 12.
HOW TO ADJUST THE REED SWITCH
If the console does not display correct feedback, the
reed switch should be adjusted. First, see step 11 on
page 10 and remove the link arms. Next, see step 4 on
page 7 and remove the crank arms.
Then, remove all of the screws from both side shields;
there are three sizes of screws in the side
shields—note which size of screw you remove
from each hole.
Then, gently pry the side shields
away from the frame.
Next, locate the
Reed Switch (50).
Turn the Pulley
(40) until a Magnet
(55) is aligned with
the Reed Switch.
Loosen, but do not
remove, the indi-
cated M4 x 16mm
Screw (103). Slide
the Reed Switch
slightly closer to or
away from the Magnet, and then retighten the Screw.
Rock the Pulley forward and backward just enough
that the Magnet passes the Reed Switch repeatedly.
Repeat until the console displays correct feedback.
When the Reed Switch is correctly adjusted, reattach
the side shields, the crank arms, and the link arms.
Note: If you have questions as to which screw should
be in which hole, see EXPLODED DRAWING B on
page 27 and the PART LIST on page 24.
HOW TO ADJUST THE BELT
If you can feel the pedals slip while you are pedaling,
even when the resistance of the pedals is at the high-
est setting, the Belt (51) may need to be adjusted.
First, see step 11 on page 10 and remove the link
arms. Next, see step 4 on page 7 and remove the
crank arms.
Then, remove all the screws from both side shields;
there are three sizes of screws in the side
shields—note which size of screw you remove
from each hole.
Then, gently pry the side shields
away from the frame.
Next, tighten the
M8 x 35mm Screw
(96) until the Belt
(51) is tight. Then,
reattach the side
shields, the crank
arms, and the link
arms. Note: If you
have questions as
to which screw
should be in which
hole, see
EXPLODED DRAWING B on page 27 and the PART
LIST on page 24.
