Setting up the cycle
Stabilizing the Cycle
To maximize your performance, ensure the exercise
cycle is stable. After locating the exercise cycle on a reason-
ably level floor, check to see if the bike is stable. If all four
levelers do not maintain floor contact, the unit requires
stabilizing.
To do so, turn the grey stabilizing wheel located on the
rubber footpad and rotate clocks\wise until the leveler touches
the floor. Usually the back ones need adjusting, if at all. If
the floor is very uneven adjust a front leveler. Always take
care when tipping your exercise cycle.
Adjusting the seat
Proper seat height is critical to exercise efficiently and
avoid the risk of injury. To determine whether the seat is
properly adjusted sit on the exercise bike, place one pedal
in the down position and center the ball of your foot over
the center pedal. Your leg should be slightly bent. If you are
stretching or your leg isn't extended sufficiently the seat
should be lowered or raised as required.
After adjusting it is very important to make sure that the
seat post is securely locked into position.
Moving the Exercise Bike
Your exercise cycle has been fitted with transport wheels to
allow easy movement form room to room.
Obviously, when the cycle has too be moved up or down
stairs or negotiate other obstacles, suitable assistance will be
required to help you carry the cycle safely.
Pedal Straps
Your cycle is NOT fitted with pedal straps. Pedal straps on
exercise bikes are designed for use in fitness testing programs
under strictly controlled supervision. For normal exercise pro-
grams no pedal straps should be used.
