2. Position the machine’s rear stand on the rear stabi-
liser bar (4), as shown in Fig.2, insert the bolts (3),
fit the flat washers (5) and cap nuts (6) and then
tighten securely. Position the front stabiliser bar
with wheels (21), paying attention to the red dots
and with the wheels facing forwards, as shown in
Fig.2, insert the bolts (3), fit the flat washers (5)
and cap nuts (6) and tighten securely.
2.- ATTACHING THE SADDLE.-
Fit the saddle bracket (14), Fig.3, onto the horizontal
saddle tube (12), as shown in Fig.3, fit the saddle into
position and tighten the nuts on the bracket securely.
Next insert the horizontal saddle tube (12) through the
hole on the saddle post (10), Fig.3, position it correctly
and tighten the knob (19), Fig.3. Insert the saddle post
(10) into the boss on the main body (16), position it cor-
rectly and tighten the saddle post by using the adjust-
ment knob (26), Fig.3, turning it clockwise.
ADJUSTING THE SADDLE HEIGHT.
- Loosen the saddle post adjustment knob (26)
slightly by turning it anticlockwise, Fig.3, move the
saddle to a position comfortable for doing exercise
and then tighten the adjustment knob (26) securely
by turning it clockwise.
HORIZONTAL ADJUSTMENT OF THE SADDLE.
- Loosen the knob (19) slightly by turning it anticlock-
wise, Fig.3, move the saddle to a position comfor-
table for doing exercise and then tighten the knob
(19) securely by turning it clockwise.
3.- FITTING THE HANDLEBAR.-
Position the handlebar (18) on the handlebar stem (17),
Fig.4, tighten the knob (19) and then insert the hand-
lebar stem (17) into the hole on the main body (16),
Fig.3. Position it correctly and then tighten knob (26) by
turning it clockwise.
ADJUSTING THE HANDLEBAR HORIZONTALLY.
- Position the handlebar (18) at a comfortable dis-
tance for doing exercise but without going beyond
the “MIN” marks, now tighten knob (19) securely,
Fig.4.
ADJUSTING THE HANDLEBAR VERTICALLY.
- Position the handlebar (18) at a comfortable dis-
tance for doing exercise but without going beyond

4.- ATTACHING THE MONITOR.-
Fit the monitor (23), Fig 4, into the bracket and tighten
securely with screw. Plug connector (A2) coming out
from main frame into the connector (A1) coming out of
the monitor.
5.- FITTING THE PEDALS.-
The assembly instructions for the pedals must be fol-
lowed 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 (1), marked with the letter (R),
screws onto the righthand crank, also marked with an
(R), in a clockwise direction. Tighten securely, Fig.5. The
left-hand pedal (1), 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.
6.- EXERTION SETTINGS.-
To provide an even level of exertion during exercise,
this appliance is equipped with a tensioning control
(30), located on the stem of the main body, Fig.6. This
provides various exertion settings when turned clock-
wise. To increase pedal resistance turn the tensioning
control (30) clockwise (+) until the exertion level best
suits your exercise requirements. To reduce pedal
resistance turn the tensioning control (30) anticlock-
wise (-). Important: This tensioning control (30) is
equipped with an emergency braking system which,
when applied with force (as shown by the arrow in
Fig.6, produces a much sharper braking effect.
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 (14) up or down, as shown in Fig.7.
8.- MOVEMENT & STORAGE.-
The unit is equipped with wheels (21) Fig.8, 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, prefer-
ably not subject to changes in temperature.
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 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 direc-
tion, whereas the left-hand pedal (marked L) does so in
the opposite direction. 13 Maintenance: -The tension of
the pedal clip with the pedal should be checked
weekly, using a 3mm 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.
MAINTENANCE EVERY 200 HOURS.-
1. CHECKING & ADJUSTING THE BELT
- Check that the belt is tensioned properly. If the belt
skids it will be necessary to tighten the belt.
- Remove the side covers (44) and loosen the nuts a
maximum of two turns Fig.7
- Tighten the small nuts with a spanner. Make sure
that the nut rotates the same number of turns on
both sides of the machine (generally 2 turns will be
sufficient) otherwise the drive sprocket might
become skewed, creating a lot more noise and
making it possible for the belt to fall off.
- Tighten up nuts again and put the side covers (44)
back in their place.
- Whenever the tension setting on the machine is
adjusted, readjust the brakes as well. Do not
hesitate to get touch with the Technical Assistance
