ARE THE SOUNDS MY ELLIPTICAL MAKES NORMAL?
Our ellipticals are some of the quietest available because they use belt drives and friction free magnetic
resistance. We use the highest grade bearings and belts to minimize noise. However, because the resistance
system itself is so quiet, you will occasionally hear other slight mechanical noises. Unlike older, louder
technologies, there are no fans, friction belts, or alternator noises to mask these sounds on our ellipticals.
These mechanical noises, which may or may not be intermittent, are normal and are caused by the transfer
of significant amounts of energy to a rapidly spinning flywheel. All bearings, belts and other rotating parts
will generate some noise which will transmit through the casing and frame. It is also normal for these
sounds to change slightly during a workout and over time because of thermal expansion of the parts.
WHY IS THE ELLIPTICAL I HAD DELIVERED LOUDER THAN THE ONE AT THE STORE?
All fitness products seem quieter in a large store showroom because there is generally more background
noise than in your home. Also, there will be less reverberation on a carpeted concrete floor than on a wood
overlay floor. Sometimes a heavy rubber mat will help reduce reverberation through the floor. If a fitness
product is placed close to a wall, there will be more reflected noise.
HOW LONG WILL THE DRIVE BELT LAST?
The computer modeling we have done indicated virtually thousands of maintenance free hours. Belts are
now commonly used in far more demanding applications such as motorcycle drives.
CAN I MOVE THE TRAINER EASILY ONCE IT IS ASSEMBLED?
Your elliptical has a pair of transport wheels built into the front legs. It is easy to move your elliptical by
rolling it on the front transport wheels. It is important that you place your elliptical in a comfortable and
inviting room. Your elliptical is designed to use minimal floor space. Many people will place their ellipticals
facing the TV or a picture window. If at all possible, avoid putting your elliptical in a unfinished basement.
To make exercise a desirable daily activity for you, the elliptical should be in a comfortable setting.
CAN I PEDAL BACKWARDS ON MY ELLIPTICAL?
Your elliptical allows you to pedal both forward and backwards to exercise and strengthen a wider range
of muscles.
