Read the entire User Manual before setting up the Total-Body Elliptical Cross-Trainer.
Note: This Total Body Elliptical Cross-Trainer is speed independent. Resistance can be adjusted by means other than

WHERE TO PLACE THE TOTAL-BODY ELLIPTICAL CROSS-TRAINER
After following all safety instructions move the Total-Body Elliptical Cross-Trainer to the
place where it will be used. Allow a minimum clearance of 12 inches (30.5 cm) around
the product. See specifications for full dimensions if needed. The Total-Body Elliptical
Cross-Trainer is equipped with rear wheels so that it is simple to push or pull the Total-
Body Elliptical Cross-Trainer to its final destination. Simply lift the front of the Total-Body
Elliptical Cross-Trainer to move
. Once the Total-Body Elliptical Cross-Trainer is properly
positioned, allow enough space in the front of the Total-Body Elliptical Cross-Trainer for
the movement of the pedal levers. Also be sure to allow space on the side so that it is
easy to mount the Total-Body Elliptical Total-Body Elliptical Cross-Trainer from the side.
CAUTION: Make certain you have plenty of room for the swing of the moving arms.
CAUTION: Place the Total-Body Elliptical Cross-Trainer in a dry place. Do not place in
highly humid areas, like near swimming pools, as rust and corrosion may occur.
HOW TO STABILIZE THE TOTAL-BODY ELLIPTICAL CROSS-TRAINER
Once the cross trainer is positioned in the room adjust the levelers on the front
stabilizer. The levelers will keep the Total-Body Elliptical Cross-Trainer fixed to the
floor while using it.
CAUTION: Do not use the Total-Body Elliptical Cross-Trainer without the levelers touching the floor.
After placing the Total-Body Elliptical Cross-Trainer where it will be used, check the stability. If there is even a slight rock-
ing motion, or the unit is not stable, the levelers will need to be adjusted. Determine which leveler is not resting firmly on
the floor. To adjust the levelers downward twist the rubber portion of the leg counterclockwise. To adjust the levelers
upward twist the rubber portion of the leg clockwise. Be sure there is a minimum of 5 mm (0.20 in.) of thread showing
between the leveler and the leveler locking nut.
Note: After the Cross-Trainer is level, be sure to tighten the nut on the leveler against the stabilizer tube. If this is not
tightened, noise will occur.
POWERING UP THE TOTAL-BODY ELLIPTICAL CROSS-TRAINER
Your Life Fitness Total-Body Elliptical Cross-Trainer may come with either
a U.S. power supply or one of several international power supplies. Insert the
appropriate power adapter jack into the connector (A) on the back of the Total-Body
Elliptical Cross-Trainer. Then insert the plug into the wall outlet. Make sure the cord
is placed so it doesn't bind and will not be walked on. Then check that the console
lights up. If not, recheck the plug and the wall connections and make sure the wall
outlet has power.
MOUNTING THE MACHINE
When mounting the machine it is recommended that the pedal closest to you is in its lowest position. This can be done by
pushing the arms to rotate the pedal until it is centered to the side of you at its lowest position. If you are standing to the left
side of the machine, when facing the console, place your left foot on the pedal closest to you and then swing your right leg
over to the right pedal. Use the stationary handlebar to stabilize yourself.
DISMOUNTING THE MACHINE
Bring the machine to a stop. It is recommended to put the pedal in it’s lowest position on the side of the unit you will be dis-
mounting. If dismounting the machine on the left side, when facing the console, step off with the right leg first followed by
the left leg. Use the stationary handlebar for stabilization.
