Step 1
Before proceeding, familiarize yourself with the parts of the Lifecycle 8500 exercise bike and make sure that you have received all the items described in the Parts List.
Step 2
Remove the STABILIZER BAR (#7) from the carton base. Use the empty CONSOLE CARTON (A) to raise the rear of the Lifecycle bike as shown.
Remove the two BOLTS (#1) from the bottom of the SHIPPING STABILIZER (B), save the BOLTS and store the SHIPPING STABILIZER with the other shipping containers.
Step 3
Use the same two BOLTS that held the SHIPPING STABILIZER in place to attach the STABILIZER BAR as shown. Make certain that the BOLTS are very tight and the STABILIZER BAR is flush against the frame. Remove the shipping carton.
Step 4
Unfold the CONSOLE WIRE HARNESS (C) from the HANDLEBAR POST extending from the FRAME.
NOTE: THE COLLAR (#4) SHOULD ALREADY BE IN PLACE INSTALLED ON THE
HANDLEBAR ASSEMBLY (#5). IF NOT, INSTALL BEFORE PROCEEDING.
Step 5
Place the HANDLEBAR ASSEMBLY on the floor in front of the FRAME with the two CONNECTORS (10P) next to each other. Align the two CONNECTORS with each other and firmly push them together until they snap into place.
Step 6
Position the HANDLEBAR ASSEMBLY, with the COLLAR (#4) in place, so that the HANDLEBAR is facing away from the seat. Slide the HANDLEBAR ASSEMBLY into the HANDLEBAR POST (D). Be careful not to pinch the wires.
Align the three holes in the HANDLEBAR ASSEMBLY with those in the HANDLEBAR POST and install the three HANDLEBAR BOLTS (#1).
NOTE: BE CAREFUL NOT TO DAMAGE THE WIRES WHEN PASSING
