Verify that the heart rate display works
To verify that the heart rate display is operational:
1. Begin exercising on the equipment and grasp both touch-sensitive handlebars. The heart icon flashes while the heart rate is read. You must maintain
contact with both metal plates on each handlebar to ensure an accurate reading.
2. Within ten seconds, your heart rate number appears in the HEART RATE display. If a number does not appear, perform the following checks:
•
Verify that the HR cable is properly connected.
•
Repeat the test with a different person. In rare instances, it may not work properly for a few individuals.
•
Repeat this test using a chest strap or a wireless pulse simulator. You’ll get better results than if you only grasp the touch-sensitive handlebars.
DO NOT hold onto the handlebars during the reading or you’ll override those results.
Moving the equipment
The equipment is very heavy. If you plan to move it to a new location, obtain the help of an adult assistant and use proper lifting techniques. If the equipment
includes roller wheels on one end, use the wheels to reduce the load on yourself and your assistant.
To move the elliptical (EFX):

Precor recommends using a four-wheeled dolly to move the EFX.
To move the AMT:
1. Disconnect, unplug, and remove all external connections (television, Ethernet, and power).
2. Lift the rear platform molding to remove it.
3. Lift the rear foot supports to tip the AMT forward onto its roller wheels.
4. Push the AMT into its new location.
5. Lower the rear foot supports to the floor, then reattach the rear platform molding.
To move the treadmill:
A treadmill in an inclined position is easier to move.
Important
The plastic end caps on Precor treadmills are designed specifically for lifting. Working with your assistant, place a hand
under each side of the end cap. Then, using proper lifting techniques, lift the rear of the treadmill so that it rolls on its front
wheels.
