HOW to Adjust the Seat

Aproperly adjusted seat is extremely important in any bike-oriented exercise activity, and the Lifecycle 9500HR aerobic trainer is no exception. If the seat is too low, excessive strain will be placed on the knees and quadriceps muscles; if the seat is too high, the resulting reaching action will irritate the feet, ankles, hips and knees.

To adjust the seat properly, sit on it and place the balls of your feet on the pedals. An optimum position will allow you to move through the bottom of the stroke without locking your knees or shifting in the seat (your knees should have a slight bend at the point of fullest leg extension). If the seat needs to be adjusted, dismount the bike and pull the spring-loaded adjusting pin located on the back of the seat post. Slide the seat post up or down as necessary to the proper position and release the pin to complete engagement. Check the seat height again and readjust it if necessary.

CAUTION: Do not attempt to adjust the seat while you are pedaling the bike. Doing so or failing to insert the seat pin completely may result in an uncomfortable workout or cause injury.
