POWER
If the equipment is powered by a power supply, the power must be plugged into the power jack, which
is located in the front of the equipment near the stabilizer tube. Some equipment has a power switch,
located next to the power jack. Make sure it is in the ON position. Unplug cord when not in use.
MOUNTING/DISMOUNTING THE EQUIPMENT
1.
Stand behind the equipment.
2.
While holding both of the rear arm rests for support, place your foot on the lowest foot
pedal and push pedal down into the lowest position before stepping onto foot pedal.
3.
Wait until the equipment finds its resting place and then
place your other foot on the opposite pedal.
4.
Bring the equipment to a complete stop before dismounting.
WARNING!
Never operate equipment if it has a damaged cord or plug, if it is not working properly, if it has been
damaged, or immersed in water. Contact Customer Tech Support for examination and repair.
USING THE HEART RATE FUNCTION
The heart rate function on this product is not a medical device. While heart rate grips can provide
a relative estimation of your actual heart rate, they should not be relied on when accurate readings
are necessary. Some people, including those in a cardiac rehab program, may benefit from using an
alternate heart rate monitoring system like a chest or wrist strap. Various factors, including movement
of the user, may affect the accuracy of your heart rate reading. The heart rate reading is intended
only as an exercise aid in determining heart rate trends in general. Please consult your physician.
Place the palm of your hands directly on the grip pulse handlebars. Both hands must grip
the bars for your heart rate to register. It takes 5 consecutive heart beats (15-20 seconds)
for your heart rate to register. When gripping the pulse handlebars, do not grip tightly.
Holding the grips tightly may elevate your blood pressure. Keep a loose, cupping hold.
You may experience an erratic readout if consistently holding the grip pulse handlebars.
Make sure to clean the pulse sensors to ensure proper contact can be maintained.
WARNING!
Heart rate monitoring systems may be inaccurate. Over exercising may result in
serious injury or death. If you feel faint, stop exercising immediately.
PROPER USAGE
This equipment 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. Always
make sure your entire foot is secured on the foot pad.
This equipment 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.
To determine proper workout position, stand on the pedal
with your foot on the center of the pedal. Keep your knees
slightly bent at all times. You should be able to pedal without
locking your knees or shifting your weight from side to side.
BRAKE SYSTEM
This equipment utilizes magnetic resistance to set specific
levels of resistance. The resistance level setting in addition
to the RPM is used to determine the power (watts) output.
