TROUBLE-SHOOTING AND MAINTENANCE
Inspect and tighten all parts each time you use the
stepper. The stepper can be cleaned using a soft cloth
and mild, non-abrasive detergent.
To prevent damage to the
console, use only a
sealed water bottle in the
water bottle holder. In
addition, keep liquids
away from the console,
keep the console out of
direct sunlight, and
remove the batteries when storing the stepper.
REED SWITCH ADJUSTMENT
If the console does not function properly, or if the dis-
play becomes faint, the batteries should be replaced.
See assembly step 8 on page 6.
If the console still
does not function
properly, the Reed
Switch (12) should
be adjusted. Hold
down the Right Pedal
Leg (7) so that the
Magnet (26) is level
with the Reed Switch
(12). Refer to the
inset drawing. Slide
the Reed Switch (12)
in or out slightly. The
gap between the Reed Switch and the Magnet should
be about 1/8Ó. Make sure that the Magnet will not hit
the Reed Switch when the Pedal Leg is moved.
Repeat until the console displays correct feedback.

HOW TO EXERCISE ON THE STEPPER
Place the stepper on a level surface and place a mat
under the stepper. (The stepper features precision
hydraulic cylinders. However, there is a possibility of
slight oil leakage due to the nature of hydraulic cylin-
ders.)
Hold the handlebars and step onto the pedals. Begin
stepping, alternately depressing the right and left ped-
als with a smooth, continuous motion. Because the
pedals move independently of each other, you must
maintain a continuous motion or both pedals will sink
to the floor. Change the height of your step or the
stepping pace until you can comfortably maintain a
continuous motion.
As you step, you can exercise your upper leg mus-
cles by keeping your feet flat on the pedals. To focus
on your calf muscles, rise on your toes as you step.
Stand erect or lean forward slightly as you exercise,
always keeping your back straight in order to avoid
injury.
HOW TO ADJUST THE RESISTANCE
To change the stepping resistance, first lift the Right
and Left Pedal Legs (6, 7) off the hooks at the lower
ends of the Resistance Cylinders (9). Move the hooks
to different slots under the Pedal Legs. Make sure
that the hooks are fully inserted into the slots in
the same position under both Pedal Legs. The far-
ther the hooks are moved from the Upright (1), the
greater the resistance will be.
WARNING: The resistance cylinders become very
hot during use. Allow the resistance cylinders to
cool before touching them.
