TROUBLE-SHOOTING

Most ski exerciser problems can be solved by following the steps below. Find the problem that applies, and follow the steps listed. If further assistance is needed, please call our Customer Service Department.

PROBLEM: The console does not function properly.

SOLUTION: a. Make sure the console wire is fully plugged in on both ends (see step 6 on page 5).

b. If the console does not function properly, or if the display becomes faint, the batteries should be replaced. See assembly step 5 on page 5 for installation instructions.

PROBLEM: The arm cords are tangled.

WARNING: The pulley will get hot during use. Avoid direct contact with the pul- ley immediately after use.

SOLUTION: a. Detach the handgrips by untying the knot and removing the 1/4” washer inside the handgrips (see page 6). Take the Arm Cord (23) out of the Small Pulleys (28) and unwind it from the Pulley (35). Notice how it goes into the Pulley. Drape both ends of the Arm Cord over the hip pad. Make sure the ends of the Arm Cords are even.

b. Locate cord “A.” Wrap it counterclockwise around the Pulley until you have no more Arm Cord to wind. Do not be concerned if it looks tangled; it will smooth out later.

c. Pass the end of cord “A” from left to right through the right Small Pulley (28). Pull cord “A” to wrap the other section of the Arm Cord (cord “B”) around the Pulley.

d. Feed the end of cord “B” from right to left through the left Small Pulley (28). Pull cord “B” until the end of the Arm Cord is even with cord “A.” With an Arm Cord end in each hand, work the arm exerciser back and forth until the Arm Cord lies smoothly.

e. To reattach each handgrip, thread the arm cord through the hole in the handgrip from top to inside. Slip a 1/4” washer onto the arm cord and tie a figure- eight knot as shown at the right near the arm cord end.

Note: The arm cord length can be adjusted by retying the knots inside the handgrips. For greater adjustments in the cord length, one loop of cord can be added to or removed from the pulley. See page 6. Proper arm cord length allows your arms to extend just beyond your hips.

PROBLEM: The arm cord assembly is chattering or making a screeching sound or the arm resistance knob loosens.

SOLUTION: a. Check the order of the pulley assembly. Confirm that all parts are present. The assembly from the pulley to the knob should be as follows: 3/8” washer, thrust washer, 3/8” washer, spring and resistance knob.
