Slide the adjustment bracket upward or downward until the adjustment knob is aligned with one of the holes in the crank arm, and gently release the knob to engage the adjustment pin in the hole.
Rock the adjustment arm upward and downward slightly to make sure that the adjustment pin is engaged in one of the holes in the crank arm. Then, tighten the adjustment knob.
Adjust the stride length on the other side of the ellipti- cal in the same way. Make sure that both sides of the elliptical are adjusted to the same stride length.

If the frame of the elliptical flexes
during use, turn one or both of the leveling feet under the center of the frame until the flexing is eliminated.
To mount the elliptical, hold the upper body arms or the handlebars and step onto the pedal that is in the lowest position. Next, step onto the other pedal. Push the ped- als until they begin to move with a continuous motion.
Note: The crank arms can turn in either direction. It is recommended that you turn the crank arms in the direction shown by the arrow; however, for variety, you can turn the crank arms in the opposite direction.

To dismount the elliptical, wait until the pedals come to a complete stop. Note: The elliptical does not have a free wheel; the pedals will continue to move until the flywheel stops. When the pedals are stationary, step off the highest pedal first. Then, step off the lowest pedal.
