HOW TO LEVEL THE ELLIPTICAL

If the elliptical rocks slightly on your floor during use, 

turn one or both of the leveling feet (F) beneath the 

rear stabilizer or the leveling foot (G) beneath the 

frame until the rocking motion is eliminated. 

HOW TO EXERCISE ON THE ELLIPTICAL

To mount the elliptical, hold the upper body arms (H) 

or the handlebars (I) and step onto the pedal (J) that 

is in the lower position. Then, step onto the other 

pedal. Push the pedals until they begin to move with 

a continuous motion. Note: The crank arms (K) can 

turn in either direction. It is recommended that you 

turn the crank arms in the direction shown by the 

arrow; however, for variety, you can turn the crank 

arms in the opposite direction.

To dismount the elliptical, wait until the pedals (J) come 

to a complete stop. Note: The elliptical does not 

have a free wheel; the pedals will continue to move 

until the flywheel stops. When the pedals are station-

ary, step off the higher pedal first. Then, step off the 

lower pedal.
