3.- ATTACHING THE SADDLE.-
Fit the saddle bracket (1), Fig.4, onto the horizontal
saddle tube (38), as shown in Fig.4, fit the saddle
into position and tighten the nuts on the bracket
securely.
Next insert the horizontal saddle tube (38) through
the hole on the saddle post (39), Fig.4, position it
correctly and tighten the knob (2), Fig.4.
Insert the saddle post (39) into the boss on the
main body (A), position it correctly and tighten the
saddle post by using the adjustment knob (2A),
Fig.4, turning it clockwise.
ADJUSTING THE SADDLE HEIGHT.-
Loosen the saddle post adjustment knob (2A)
slightly by turning it anticlockwise, Fig.5, move the
saddle to a position comfortable for doing exercise
and then tighten the adjustment knob (2A) securely
by turning it clockwise.
Stay within the references 0-19 without going
beyond the “MIN INSERT” mark.
HORIZONTAL ADJUSTMENT OF THE SADDLE.-
Loosen the knob (2) slightly by turning it
anticlockwise, Fig.5, move the saddle to a position
comfortable for doing exercise and then tighten the
knob (2) securely by turning it clockwise.
Stay within the references 0-17 without going
beyond the “MIN INSERT” mark.
4.- FITTING THE PEDALS.-
The assembly instructions for the pedals must be
followed to the letter, fitting these incorrectly could
damage the screw thread on either the pedal or the
crank.
Right and left refer to the position that the user adopts
when sitting on the saddle to do the exercises.
The right-hand pedal (9R), marked with the letter (R),
screws onto the right-hand crank, also marked with an
(R), in a clockwise direction. Tighten securely, Fig.5.
The left-hand pedal (9L), marked with the letter (L),
screws onto the left-hand crank, also marked with
an (L), in an anti-clockwise direction. Tighten
securely, Fig.5.
Remove screws (16) located on the main post (A)
and fit the bottle holder (15), using the same screws
(16).
5.- FITTING THE ELECTRONIC MONITOR.-
Place the monitor (62) in the direction of the arrow
sliding the monitor on the holding plate (M) Fig.6
and fix it with the screw (71).
Connect the terminal (70) of the cable sticking out
of the main body (A) in terminal (72) of the rear part
of the monitor (62) Fig.6.
6.- EXERTION SETTINGS.-
For regular control of exercise settings, this
appliance is equipped with a tensioning control
(22), located on the stem of the main body (A) Fig.7
which, when lifted in the direction of the arrow,
indicates the resistance settings of the appliance in
the monitor.
To increase the pedalling resistance, lift the
tensioning control (22) until the exertion level best
suits your exercise requirements.
To decrease the pedalling resistance, lower the
tensioning control (22).
Important:
This tensioning control (22) has an emergency
braking system which, when fully lifted in the
direction of the arrow, as shown in Fig.7, causes a
sudden braking force for the flywheel.
7.- LEVELLING.-
Once the unit has been placed into its final position,
make sure that it sits flat on the floor and that it is
level. This can be achieved by screwing the
adjustable feet (10) up or down, as shown in Fig.7.
8.- MOVEMENT & STORAGE.-
The unit is equipped with wheels (13) Fig.7, to
make it easier to move. The wheels located at the
front of your unit make it easier to move it into a
chosen position, by lifting the rear of the unit up
slightly and pushing it, as shown in Fig.8. Store
your unit in a dry place, preferably not subject to
changes in temperature.
9.- MAINTAINING THE MACHINE.-
For health reasons it is necessary to clean the
handlebars and seat after each class with a
disinfectant spray, as well as removing any sweat
from the bicycle’s frame.
Apply anti-rust to the flywheel every time you clean
the machine or at least once a month.
MAINTENANCE EVERY 100 HOURS.-
1. TIGHTENING THE PEDALS.
Even though the pedals are already fitted, the right-
hand pedal (marked R) screws on in a clockwise
direction, whereas the left-hand pedal (marked L)
does so in the opposite direction.
Maintenance:
-The tension of the pedal clip with the pedal should
be checked weekly, using a 3 mm allen key to
adjust the set screw.
-Apply a little oil to the contact point of the pedal
clip with the pedal to ensure that it locks on.
-Oil to the pedal springs regularly. (Pedal
instructions attached)
2. CHECKING THE TIGHTENING KNOBS.-
The 3 tightening knobs should be loosened off and
sprayed with a lubricant to ensure that they remain
operative.
