1.2 SETUP
Read the entire Operation Manual before setting up the Life Fitness stairclimber.
WHERE TO PLACE THE LIFE FITNESS®STAIRCLIMBER
Following all safety instructions in Section 1.1, move the stairclimber to the location in which it
will be used. See Section 7, titled Specifications, for the dimensions of the footprint. Allow a dis-
tance of 8 inches, or 21 centimeters, between the stairclimber and other units on either side.
Allow a distance of 3 feet, or 1 meter, from the rear of the stairclimber to any object or surface.

HOW TO STABILIZE THE STAIRCLIMBER

After placing the stairclimber in position, check the unit’s stability by attempting to rock it in all
directions. Any slight rocking indicates that the unit must be leveled. Determine which foot is not
resting completely on the floor. Loosen the jam nut (B) with an open-end 9/16-inch wrench, and
rotate the stabilizing foot (A) to lower it. Verify that the stairclimber is stable, and repeat the
adjustment as necesarry until the unit no longer rocks. Lock the adjustment by tightening the jam
nut against the stabilizer bar.
