MAINTENANCE AND TROUBLESHOOTING

Most problems can be solved by following the simple steps below. Find the symptom that applies, and follow the steps listed. If further assistance is needed, please see the front cover of this manual.

WEEKLY MAINTENANCE

Inspect and properly tighten all external parts of the el- liptical exerciser. Clean the elliptical exerciser with a small amount of mild multi-purpose cleaner applied to a 100% cotton cloth. When cleaning the elliptical exer- ciser, pay special attention to the track and the wheels. Remove all debris from the track. Clean the pedal cov- ers with a soft nylon brush. Do not use acidic clean- ers. Never spray any cleaner directly onto the ellip- tical exerciser.

5.SYMPTOM: THE CONSOLE TURNS OFF AS SOON AS YOU STOP PEDALING

If the console turns off as soon as you stop pedal- ing, the battery pack may not be charged. The longer you pedal, the longer the battery pack will re- tain a charge. It may be necessary to pedal for a few minutes to charge the battery pack each time you exercise. If the console turns off as soon as you stop pedaling, even after you have pedaled for sev- eral minutes, call the toll-free telephone number on the front cover of this manual immediately.

3. SYMPTOM: THE PEDAL DISCS RUB AGAINST

THE SIDE SHIELDS

If a pedal disc rubs against a side shield, loosen the

side shield mounting screws and move the side

shield slightly until the pedal disc stops rubbing.

Then, retighten the side shield mounting screws.

First, remove the two M6 x 16mm Button Screws (49) attaching the left Pedal Disc (5). Without removing the Pedal Disc, pivot it out of the way.

Next, locate the M10 Flange Nut (95). Turn the Flange Nut clock- wise until the ped- als no longer slip during the power stroke.
