4. MAIN FEATURES
MOUNTING THE MACHINE
When mounting the machine it is recommended that the pedal closest to you is in its lowest position. This can be done by pushing the arms to rotate the pedal until it is centered to the side of you at its lowest position. It is also recommend- ed that the stride length is set to 18 inches. At 18 inches the pedal will be in its lowest position. If you are standing to the left side of the machine, when facing the console, place your left foot on the pedal closest to you and then swing your right leg over to the right pedal. Use the stationary handlebar to stabilize yourself.
STRIDE LENGTHS FOR DIFFERENT USERS
The X8 has 7 different stride lengths from 18 inches to 24 inches. Users may utilize any of the stride lengths. Research has shown that shorter users may prefer a shorter stride length while taller users may prefer a longer stride length.
ACCESSORIES
The X8 comes standard with two blue water bottle holders (D) and one blue accessory tray (E). All are easily removable and safe to place on the top shelf of a standard consumer dishwasher. The X8 console also includes a reading ledge (F) that can be used to place a book or magazine on the machine to better enjoy your workout.
