ADJUSTMENTS
SEAT
Set the right height for you; the basic rule is
that the arch of the foot reaches reaches the
the pedal at its lowest point with the leg almost
straight. Adjust the seat height by loosening the
seat locking knob. Hold on to the seat with one
hand and, using your other hand, pull the locking
knob outwards in order to enable free seat tube
movement upwards and downwards. Once the
height is right, let go of the knob and the seat
locks into place. Turn the locking knob clockwise
to tighten.
NOTE! Always make sure that the locking knob is
properly fastened before starting to exercise!
To adjust the horizontal seat position forward
and back, loosen the locking screws under the
seat. You can also adjust inclination from here.
Release the seat lock by turning the locking lever
located under the seat anti-clockwise. Adjust
the seat to the desired position and tighten the
locking lever by turning it clockwise.
HANDLEBAR SETUP
Loosen the locking screws on the front of the
handlebar support and find the right angle at
which to position the handlebar. Tighten the
locking screws. The design of the handlebar
allows you to exercise either in an upright
position or with the upper body leaning forward.
Remember, however, always to keep your back
straight.
CONSOLE INCLINATION ADJUSTMENT
Set the inclination of the meter so that it
corresponds to your height and exercise position.
ADJUSTMENT OF SUPPORT FEET
If the equipment is not stable, adjust the
adjustment screws below the support feet as
necessary.
EXERCISING
Working out with this device is excellent aerobic
exercise, the principle being that the exercise
should be suitably light, but of long duration.
Aerobic exercise is based on improving the
body’s maximum oxygen upteke, which in turn
improves endurance and fitness. The ability
of the body to burn fat as a fuel is directly
dependent on its oxygen-uptake capacity.
Aerobic exercise should be above all pleasant.
You should work up a light sweat but you should
not get out of breath during the workout.
You should exercise at least three times a
week, 30 minutes at a time, to reach a basic
fitness level. Maintaining this level requires a
few exercise sessions each week. Once the
basic condition has been reached, it is easily
improved, simply by increasing the number of
exercise sessions. You should start slowly at a
low pedalling speed and low resistance, because
for an overweight person strenuous exercise
