Move the Resistance Lever to the most forward position
to engage the Emergency Brake. This will stop the
motion of the Flywheel within one revolution, refer to
Figure 6. Wait until the Footpads and Handles come to a
complete stop before dismounting.
Resistance is controlled by the Resistance Lever, refer
to Figure 6. The Resistance Lever can be set to any gear
from 1 to 24. The higher the gear number setting, the
greater the resistance for the user.

The M7i is intended for cardiovascular, strength, and power conditioning exercise. Always attempt exercises for the
first time with the assistance of a spotter. Be aware of the potential for your wheelchair or mobility device to tip over
in any direction. Supervision by a spotter is required if you have a physical complaint; a disability; or suffer from, have
been diagnosed with, or have a family history of any disease or illness. The following pages are a brief overview of the
features necessary for safe operation.
ADJUSTMENT KNOBS
The Adjustment Knobs allow the Handles to adjust in increments of 1 inch
(25 mm) to attain a comfortable reach distance. To set the Handles using
the Adjustment Knobs, refer to Figure 7 and follow the instructions below:
1.
Loosen the Adjustment Knob by turning it counterclockwise 1/4 - 1/2
turn.
2.
Pull the Knob outward and hold.
3.
Slide the Handle freely to the desired position.
4.
Release the Knob. Ensure it locks into the desired position hole.
5.
Turn the Knob clockwise until it is hand-tight to secure the Handle.
NOTE: For proper reach setting, ensure that your elbows maintain a slight
bend when the Handles are pushed out to the furthest position.
Recoiler Safety Straps are an important safety mechanism that provide
increased stability to your wheelchair. Recoiler Safety Straps must be used
during exercise. To set the Recoiler Safety Straps, refer to Figure 8 and follow
the instructions below:
1.
Lift the Recoiler Lock Lever up to unlock and pull the Safety Strap Hook out.
2.
Attach the Safety Strap Hooks to a fixed area on the wheelchair, such
as the arm rest, or comfortably above seat level. To reduce the risk
of tipping backwards, never place Safety Strap Hooks below SEAT
LEVEL.
3.
Check that the Recoiler Safety Straps are tightly drawn out with no
looseness, then push the Recoiler Lock Lever down to lock in place.
NOTE: Wheelchair brakes must be locked (powered mobility devices
turned off) during exercise. If your wheelchair feels like tipping back, stop
in a controlled manner and repeat Step 3. When done exercising, lift the
Recoiler Lock Lever up to unlock. Detach the Safety Strap Hooks from the
M7i and allow them to feed back into the Recoiler.
