RATTLING HANDLEBARS/SEAT TOWER
Make sure pop pin is correctly locked into place.
SADDLE DISCOMFORT
Check to ensure the saddle is centered and level. Adjust as neces-
sary. Bear in mind that it does take time for the body to adjust to the
saddle. A gel cushioned seat cover or padded cycling shorts can
make your ride more comfortable.

RY FEELING WHEN INCREASING RESISTANCE
Put a few drops of oil underneath the resistance knob and let it
run down to the resistance shaft thread barrel. This typically
makes the motion of adjustment feel smoother.
LUBRICATING THE CHAIN
During heavy use of your Spinner® Velo XT, it may become necessary to
lubricate your chain to reduce chain associated noises. If you have any questions
regarding lubricating your chain, please contact Star Trac customer service at
(800) 503-1221 for consultation prior to lubricating the chain.
1 Locate the flywheel adjustment cover on the front right side of
your Spinner Velo XT.
2 Using a flat head screwdriver, gently pop out the flywheel
adjustment cover from the chain guard. This will expose a
small section of the chain.
3 Use a chain lube such as Tri-Flo® or other oil based lubricant
with a spray nozzle. DO NOT use a wax based lubricant.
4 When spraying the lubricant onto the chain, cover the floor
under the bike and take care not to allow the lubricant to drip
onto the floor.
5 Lock the brake by turning the Push Brake System knob
clockwise. With the brake locked up, spray the lube onto the
chain. Loosen the brake and rotate the chain carefully, and
slowly by hand approximately a quarter turn, then stop it and
tighten the brake again and spray lube onto the next portion
of the chain. Repeat the above steps a total of 6 times to
lubricate the entire chain.
6 Carefully replace the flywheel adjustment cover. Your Spinner
Velo XT is now ready for testing.
