1.2 SETUP
Read the entire Operation Manual before setting up the exercise bike.
WHERE TO PLACE THE EXERCISE BIKE
Following all safety instructions in Section 1.1, move the bike to the location in which it will be used. See Section 7, titled
Specifications, for the dimensions of the footprint. Allow a distance of four feet, or 120 centimeters, between the bike and
other objects or surfaces on either side.
HOW TO STABILIZE THE EXERCISE BIKE
After placing the bike in position, check the unit's stability by attempting to rock it in all directions. Any slight rocking indicates
that the unit must be leveled. Determine which foot is not resting completely on the floor. Loosen the jam nut with an open-end
17mm wrench, and rotate the stabilizing foot to lower it. Verify that the bike is stable, and repeat the adjustment as necessary
until the unit no longer rocks. Lock the adjustment by tightening the jam nut against the stabilizer bar.
HOW TO ADJUST THE SEAT
Proper seat positioning minimizes unecessary leg muscle fatigue. To determine whether or not the seat requires adjust-
ment, sit on it and place the balls of the feet on the pedals. The knee should bend slightly when the pedal is at the
furthest point in its rotation, relative to the body. The user should be able to pedal without locking the knees or shifting in
the seat.
Adjusting the seat on the upright bike: The bike post features a vertical locking pin seat adjustment system, which
makes it easy and safe to change the height of the seat quickly.
To raise the seat, first get off the bike. Hold the seat, turn the spring-loaded knob on the right of the seat post
once counter-clockwise to loosen it, and pull out the knob to unlock the post from its present position. Pull the seat
upward to the desired height, and release the knob to let it lock into place. Turn the knob once clockwise to tighten it.
Test and re-adjust the seat height as necessary.
To lower the seat, first get off the bike. Hold the seat, turn the spring-loaded knob on the right of the seat post
once counterclockwise to loosen it, and pull out the knob to unlock the post from its present position. Let the seat slide
down to the desired height, and release the knob to let it lock into place. Turn the knob once clockwise to tighten it. Test
and re-adjust the seat height as necessary.
CAUTION: When using the height adjustment mechanism to change the height of a partially raised seat,
hold the seat to prevent it from falling on the hand.
