ELLIPTICAL EXERCISER OPERATION
H
OW TO EXERCISE ON THE ELLIPTICAL
EXERCISER
To mount the
e
lliptical exer-
c
iser, hold the
handlebar and
step onto the
pedal that is in
the lowest posi-
tion. Then, step
onto the other
pedal. Push the
pedals until
they begin to
move with a
continuous
motion. Note:
The pedal
disks can turn
in either direc-
tion. It is rec-
ommended
that you move the pedal disks in the direction
shown by the arrow; however, for variety, you can
turn the pedal disks in the opposite direction.
To dismount the elliptical exerciser, wait until the ped-
als come to a complete stop. Note: The elliptical
exerciser does not have a free wheel; 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 lowest pedal.
HOW TO USE THE UPPER BODY ARMS
T
o add upper-
body exercise
to your work-
outs, push and
pull the upper
body arms as
you exercise.
T
o exercise
only your lower
body, hold the
handlebar as
you exercise.
H
OW TO ADJUST THE PEDAL CUSHIONS
The feel of the
pedals is affect-
e
d by the posi-
t
ions of the
pedal cushions.
The farther back
the pedal cush-
ions are placed,
the firmer the
pedals will feel.
To move the
pedal cushions,
lift the pedal
arms and slide
the pedal cush-
ions to the desired positions. Make sure that both
pedal cushions are in the same position.
HOW TO MOVE AND LEVEL THE ELLIPTICAL
EXERCISER
Stand in front of
the elliptical
exerciser, hold
the handlebar
firmly, and tip
the elliptical
exerciser until it
can be moved
on the front
wheels.
Carefully move
the elliptical
exerciser to the
desired location
and then lower
it.
Due to the
weight of the
elliptical exer-
ciser, use extreme caution when moving it.
After the elliptical exerciser has been moved, make
sure that the ends of both stabilizers are touching the
floor. If the elliptical exerciser rocks slightly during use,
turn one or both of the leveling feet under the front sta-
bilizer until the rocking motion is eliminated.
