HOW TO ADJUST THE PEDALS AND THE UPRIGHT
The motion of the elliptical crosstrainer is determined by the positions of the pedals and the upright. Follow the instructions below to adjust the motion of the ellip- tical crosstrainer.
To adjust the |
|
|
pedals, first | Upright | |
remove the pedal | Upright |
|
screws. Slide the | Knob |
|
pedals to one of |
|
|
the three posi- |
|
|
tions, and then |
|
|
reattach them |
|
|
with the screws. |
|
|
Make sure that |
|
|
the pedals are in |
|
|

| Cushion |
tion. In addition, |

Pedal | Screws | |
desired feel; the |
| |
|
| |
position of the |
|
|
cushions affects |
|
|
pedal travel. Make sure that the cushions are in the same position.
To adjust the upright, first turn the upright knob counter- clockwise a few turns to loosen it. Next, pull the knob, raise or lower the upright to the desired height, and then release the knob. Move the upright up and down slightly until the pin on the knob snaps into one of the four adjustment holes in the upright. Make sure that the upright is not resting on top of the pin. Then, turn the knob clockwise until it is tight.
