MAINTENANCE OF YOUR SCHWINN
EXERCISE BIKE
■ Moving your Exercise Bike
To move the recumbent bike, carefully but
securely lift the rear end of the bike and slowly
steer the bike to the desired location (Fig A).
To move the upright bike, carefully but
securely pull the handlebars toward you while
gently leaning the front of the bike downward
and slowly steer the bike to the desired location
(Fig B). Be gentle while moving the unit as any
sharp impact directly or indirectly to the
computer can affect computer operation.
■ Leveling your Exercise Bike
Levelers are located on each side of the rear
stabilizer. Rotate the knob on the top of each
stabilizer end cap in the direction of the "+" to
raise the leveler foot and rotate the knob in the
direction of the "-" to lower the stabilizer foot.
Check to make sure the bike is level and stable
before beginning to exercise. Repeat the above
as necessary.
■ Maintenance
Disconnect power supply before maintaining
or servicing the bike. Use a damp cloth to wipe your bike and computer
free of sweat. Inspect the bike before each use. Replace all parts at the
first sign of wear or damage. Call your authorized Schwinn

equipment or contact Schwinn

Keep all tools that are supplied with the bike to perform future maintenance.
Daily: Before each use inspect for loose, broken, damaged or worn parts.
Do not use if found in this condition; repair or replace.
Weekly: Check for smooth seat slider and console slider operation. Wipe
any dust, dirt, or grime from the surfaces. If needed, sparingly apply a thin
coating of silicone lube to ease operation.
Monthly: Check pedals and crank arms and tighten as necessary. Check
all bolts and screws and tighten as necessary.
IMPORTANT: To avoid damaging the finish on your bike and computer,
never use a petroleum-based solvent when cleaning. Avoid getting excessive
moisture on the computer.
