HOW TO USE THE PROFORM¨ L.E.X.

HOW TO EXERCISE ON THE L.E.X.

To mount the L.E.X., pin the handlebars in the station- ary position, hold the handlebars, and step onto the pedal that is in the lowest position. Next, step onto the other pedal. Push the pedals until they begin to move with a continuous motion. Note: The crank can turn in either direction; it is recommended that you turn the crank in the direction shown below; however, to give variety to your exercise, you may choose to turn the crank in the opposite direction.

To dismount the L.E.X., allow the pedals to slowly come to a stop. CAUTION: The L.E.X. does not have a freewheel; 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.

HOW TO USE THE HANDLEBARS IN THE STATIONARY POSITION

To focus on lower-body exercise, the handlebars can be pinned in a stationary position. To do this, align the holes in the handlebars with the hole in the handlebar post. Next, insert the lock pin through the handlebars and the handlebar post (see the drawing below).

Note: If it is difficult to insert the lock pin, twist the handlebars slightly in order to align the holes; do not twist the handlebars too far or they may be dam- aged. Next, tighten the resistance knob.

HOW TO USE THE HANDLEBARS IN THE DUAL-MOTION POSITION

To add upper-body exercise to your workout, remove the lock pin from the handlebars and the handlebar post (see the drawing above). Keep the lock pin in a safe place. The resistance of the handlebars can be adjusted with the resistance knob. To increase the resistance, turn the knob clockwise; to decrease the resistance, turn the knob counterclockwise.

To exercise, move the handlebars forward and back- ward as you pedal. Be sure to keep your back straight and your knees bent slightly.
