WHERE TO PLACE THE LIFE FITNESS
®
CROSS-TRAINER
Following all safety instructions in Section 1.1, move the Life Fitness cross-trainer to the location
in which it will be used. See Section 7, titled Specifications, for the dimensions of the footprint.
Allow one foot of clearance in front of the Life Fitness cross-trainer to allow for movement of the
pedal levers. It should be easy to mount the Life Fitness cross-trainer from the side.
HOW TO
STABILIZE THE LIFE FITNESS CROSS-TRAINER
After placing the Life Fitness cross-trainer in position, check the unit’s stability by attempting to
rock it. Any slight rocking indicates that the unit must be leveled. Check the stabilizing feet to
determine which foot does not rest fully on the floor. Rotate the foot counter-clockwise to lower
it. Recheck the stability and adjust again as needed until the Life Fitness cross-trainer is stable
and no longer rocks. Lock the adjustment into position by tightening the jam nut against
the stabilizer bar with an open end 9/16 inch wrench.
.
CHECK FOR POWER
The console is powered by a rechargeable 6-volt battery. Check the battery by pressing the START
key. The console should light up, and the MESSAGE CENTER should display a prompt to set up a
workout. If this does not occur, mount the Life Fitness cross-trainer and begin pedaling. The console
should then light up, making it possible to program a workout. Pedal for 10 to 20 minutes at 25
RPM or faster during a workout to charge the battery. Afterwards, the pedal action during workouts
keeps the battery charged. If the console still does not light, contact Life Fitness Customer Service.
