Due to the size and weight of the elliptical, moving
it requires two persons.
Stand in front of the ellipti-
cal, hold the upright, and place one foot against one of
the front wheels. Pull on the upright and have a sec-
ond person lift the handle until the elliptical will roll on
the wheels. Carefully move the elliptical to the desired
location, and then lower it to the floor.
HOW TO LEVEL THE ELLIPTICAL
If the elliptical
rocks slightly on

Note: The pedal discs can turn in
either direction. It is recommended that you move
the pedal discs in the direction shown by the
arrow; however, for variety, you can turn the pedal
discs in the opposite direction.
To dismount the elliptical, wait until the pedals come to
a complete stop.
Note: The elliptical does not have
