SEAT

Loosen the seatholder locking screw and turn the upper locking lever so that it is aligned with the equipment. Place the seat into position on the grooves of the lower locking lever. Turn the upper locking lever towards the top of the seat rails and lock the seat by tightening the locking screw.

POWER CORD

Plug the socket end of the transformer cord into the connector, just above the rear support in the centre of the frame, and the other end into the wall socket. To prevent damage to the connector, we recommend you tie the cord to the transportation wheel support next to the connector.

NOTE!

The device must be connected to a grounded wall socket. Do not use extension wires when connecting the device to the power source. Make sure the power cord does not run underneath the device.

Always switch off the power and uplug this appliance from the electrical outlet immediately after using.

ADJUSTMENTS

Set the right height for you; the basic rule is that the arch of the foot reaches reaches the the pedal at its lowest point with the leg almost straight. Adjust the seat height by loosening the seat locking knob. Hold on to the seat with one hand and, using your other hand, pull the locking knob outwards in order to enable free seat tube movement upwards and downwards. Once the height is right, let go of the knob and the seat locks into place. Turn the locking knob clockwise to tighten.

NOTE! Always make sure that the locking knob is properly fastened before starting to exercise!

To adjust the horizontal seat position forward and back, loosen the locking screws under the seat. You can also adjust inclination from here. Release the seat lock by turning the locking lever located under the seat anti- clockwise. Adjust the seat to the desired position and tighten the locking lever by turning it clockwise.

HANDLEBAR SETUP

Loosen the locking screws on the front of the handlebar support and find the right angle at which to position the handlebar. Tighten the locking screws. The design of the handlebar allows you to exercise either in an upright position or with the upper body leaning forward. Remember, however, always to keep your back straight.

CONSOLE INCLINATION ADJUSTMENT

Set the inclination of the meter so that it corresponds to your height and exercise position.

ADJUSTMENT OF SUPPORT FEET

If the equipment is not stable, adjust the adjustment screws below the support feet as necessary.

EXERCISING

Working out with this device is excellent aerobic exercise, the principle being that the exercise should be suitably light, but of long duration. Aerobic exercise is based on improving the body’s maximum oxygen uptake, which in turn improves endurance and fitness. The ability of the body to burn fat as a fuel is directly dependent on its oxygen-uptake capacity. Aerobic exercise should be above all pleasant. You should work up a light sweat but you should not get out of breath during the workout.

You should exercise at least three times a week, 30 minutes at a time, to reach a basic fitness level. Maintaining this level requires a few exercise sessions each week. Once the basic condition has been reached, it is easily improved, simply by increasing the number of exercise sessions. You should start slowly at a low pedaling speed and low resistance, because for an overweight person strenuous exercise may subject the heart and circulatory system to excessive strain. As fitness improves, resistance and pedaling speed can be increased gradually.
