EXERCISE BIKE

Moving your Exercise Bike

To move the recumbent bike, carefully but securely lift the rear end of the bike and slowly steer the bike to the desired location (Fig A).

To move the upright bike, carefully but securely pull the handlebars toward you while gently pushing the front of the bike downward and slowly steer the bike to the desired location (Fig B). Be gentle while mov- ing the unit as any sharp impact directly or indirect- ly to the computer can affect computer operation.

Leveling your Exercise Bike

Levelers are located on each side of the rear stabilizer.

Rotate the knob on the top of each stabilizer end capFig. B in the direction of the "+" to raise the leveler foot and

rotate the knob in the direction of the "-" to lower the stabilizer foot. Check to make sure the bike is level and stable before beginning to exercise. Repeat the above as necessary.
