HOW TO ADJUST THE CHAIN
The elliptical exerciser features a precision chain that
must be kept properly lubricated. Apply a few drops of
light multi-purpose oil to the chain every three
months.
In addition, the chain must be kept properly adjusted.
If the chain is too tight, the bearings may be dam-
aged; if the chain is too loose, the fan may be dam-
aged. If the chain causes excessive noise or slips as
you pedal, check the chain in the following manner:
1. Remove the left shield and the rear shield from the
elliptical exerciser (see HOW TO REMOVE THE
SHIELDS on this page).
2. Press down on the center of the Chain (49).
There
should be between 1/4Ó and 1Ó of vertical
movement in the center of the Chain.
If the
chain is properly adjusted, reattach the left shield,
the rear shields, and the crank arm. If the chain
needs to be adjusted, see step 3.
3. Loosen both M8 Flange Nuts (9). To tighten the
chain, turn the M6 Nuts (45) clockwise; to loosen
the chain, turn the M6 Nuts counterclockwise.
Make sure that the Fan (31) is straight
and tight-
en the M8 Flange Nuts. Reattach the reattach the
left shield, the rear shields, and the crank arm.
