USING THE FLEXSTRIDE PLUS WITH THE WHEEL STOPPERS
While using the pedal exerciser with a wheeled office chair, use the included
wheel stoppers to prevent the chair from moving backwards when pedaling.
To use the wheel stoppers:
1. Place the wheel stoppers on the floor, with the notched-side facing up.
2. Insert the chair’s front wheels into the notches of the stoppers.
3. Position the pedal exerciser in front of the chair.
4. Sit in the chair and begin pedaling. Your feet should easily reach the
pedals while sitting in the chair. Your knees should be slightly bent when
the pedals are furthest from you.
USING THE FLEXSTRIDE PLUS WITH THE TETHER STRAP
The FlexStride Plus comes with a long strap which can be used to tether it
to a chair. Most users will NOT need to tether the FlexStride Plus; pedaling
with downward force will prevent it from slipping on carpet and most other
surfaces. To tether the FlexStride Plus when using it on a slippery surface:
1. Position the FlexStride Plus in front of a chair.
2. Sit in the chair and begin pedaling. Your feet should easily reach the
pedals while sitting in the chair. Your knees should be slightly bent when
the pedals are furthest from you.
3. Unbuckle the tether strap and
route it through the carry handle
and around the chair as shown.
4. Pull the strap taut and
re-connect the buckle.
5. Pedal the bike to make sure
the distance is correct. Adjust
if necessary.
