Assembling and Maintaining RBK 800-Series Recumbent Exercise Bikes

Connecting the Heart Rate Sensor Cable

The heart rate sensor cable passes through the cutaway

opening at the upper left corner of the back plate, then down

to the small circuit board at the lower left of the console. The

following illustration shows how the cable should look once it

is installed.

Figure 13: Connecting the heart rate cable

Connecting the Power Cable

Like the tuner, the console’s upper circuit board is equipped

with a cable adapter that relieves you of attempting to attach

a cable to a recessed jack. To connect the power cable, route

it through the cutaway opening at the upper left corner of the

back plate and plug it in to this adapter.
The following illustration shows how the cable should look

once it is installed.
