HOW TO USE THE ARC SKIER PLUS
HOW TO ADJUST THE RESISTANCE OF THE SKI
PEDALS
To vary the Intens'dyof your exercise, the resistance
of the ski pedals can be adjusted. The resistance is
controlled with the Resistance Knob (41) at the back
of the cress-country skier. CAUTION: Always dis-
mount the cross-country skier before adjusting
the resistance of the ski pedals.
To increase the
resistance of
the ski pedals,
turn the
Resistance
Knob (41)
clockwise; to
decrease the
resistance, turn
the Knob coun-
terclockwise.
Note: The
41
cords connecting the ski pedals may stretch slightly
when the cross-country skier is first used. If neces-
sary, turn the Knob clockwise to remove any slack
from the cords. If there is slack in the cords, the cords
may slip off the pulleys at the ends of the ski rails.
The intensity of your exercise can also be vaded by
using the upper body arms (see the section below), or
by changing the pace of your exercise.
