ELLIPTICAL OPERATION

POWER

Your programmable elliptical is powered by a power supply. The power must be plugged into the power jack, which is located in the front of the machine near the STABILIZER TUBE. Make sure the power switch on the console is in the ON position. Note: Not all units have an ON/OFF switch on the console.

 

 

Do not operate the elliptical if the power cord or plug is damaged.

 

WARNING

 

If the elliptical appears to not be working properly, do not use the elliptical.

 

 

 

 

 

 

MOVING

Your elliptical has a pair of transport wheels built into the FRONT STABILIZER TUBE. To move, first remove the power supply and firmly grasp the CONSOLE MAST, carefully tilt and roll.

 

 

Our ellipticals are well built and heavy, weighing up to 200 lbs! Use care and

 

WARNING

 

additional help if necessary when moving.

 

 

 

 

 

 

FOOT POSITIONING

Your elliptical offers a variety of foot positions. Moving your foot to the forward most position of the foot pad increases your step height, which will create a feel similar to a step machine. Placing your foot toward the back of the foot pad decreases your step height and creates more of a gliding feel, similar to a smooth walk or run.

Your elliptical also allows you to pedal both forward and backwards to offer a variation to your workout and to focus on other major leg muscle groups such as your hamstrings and calves.
