HOW TO OPERATE THE EXERCISER
ADJUSTING THE SEAT
To adjust the posi-
tion of the seat,
loosen the seat
knob, move the
seat forward or
backward to the
desired position,
and then retighten
the knob. To deter-
mine if the seat is
properly adjusted,
sit on the seat and
pull the handlebar
as close as possible
to your stomach. Your legs should be almost straight,
with your knees bent slightly.
ADJUSTING THE RESISTANCE
To change the
resistance, turn the
collar at the front of
the resistance
cylinder. There are
ten different resis-
tance levels. A
small arrow on the
side of the resis-
tance cylinder will
show which resis-
tance level is selected. CAUTION: The resistance
cylinder becomes very hot during use. Allow the
resistance cylinder to cool before touching it.
When adjusting the resistance, touch only the
resistance adjustment collar.
ADJUSTING THE HANDLEBAR
To adjust the height
of the handlebar,
loosen the handle-
bar knob, move the
handlebar upward
or downward to the
desired position,
and then retighten
the knob into an
adjustment hole in
the handlebar.
Make sure that
the handlebar
knob is engaged in an adjustment hole.
EXERCISING ON THE EXERCISER
Sit on the seat, place your feet on the lower pedals,
and hold the handlebar. Your hands can be positioned
close together or far apart, or in an overhand or
underhand grip. If necessary, adjust the position of
the seat or the height of the handlebar.
To begin exercising, pull the handlebar toward your
waist while pushing the pedals away with your legs.
Return to the starting position. This completes one
repetition. Repeat, moving with a smooth, continuous
motion. For the best results, move through the full
range of motion and maintain a steady pace.
CAUTION: To avoid injury, keep your back
straight; do not arch your back. Do no operate the
exerciser without the cylinder shields in place.
To focus on the muscles of the upper body, place your
feet on the upper pedals as you exercise.
Note: The console will automatically turn on when you
begin exercising on the exerciser. The operation of
