485E
HOW TO EXERCISE ON THE 485E
To mount the 485E, firmly hold the handlebars or the
T-handle and carefully step onto the pedal that is in
the lowest position. Next, step onto the other pedal.
Push the pedals until they begin to move with a con-
tinuous motion. Note: The pedal disks can turn in
either direction; it is recommended that you turn
the pedal disks in the direction shown below;
however, to give variety to your exercise, you may
choose to turn the pedal disks in the opposite
direction.
To dismount the 485E, allow the pedals to come to a
complete stop. CAUTION: The 485E does not have
a freewheel; the pedals will continue to move until
the flywheel stops. When the pedals are stationary,
step off the highest pedal first. Then, step off the low-
est pedal.
HOW TO ADJUST THE RESISTANCE OF THE
PEDALS
As you exercise,
you can adjust
the resistance of
the pedals with
the resistance
knob on the
console. To
increase the
resistance,
turn the knob
clockwise; to
decrease the
resistance, turn the knob counterclockwise.
