MAINTENANCE AND TROUBLESHOOTING

Inspect and tighten all parts of the elliptical exerciser
regularly. Replace any worn parts immediately.
To clean the elliptical exerciser, use a damp cloth and
a small amount of mild soap. IMPORTANT: To avoid
damage to the console, keep liquids away from
the console and keep the console out of direct
sunlight.
BATTERY REPLACEMENT
If the console display becomes dim, the batteries
should be replaced; most console problems are the
result of low batteries. See assembly step 13 on page
11 for replacement instructions.
HOW TO LEVEL THE ELLIPTICAL EXERCISER
If the elliptical exerciser rocks slightly on your floor
during use, see HOW TO LEVEL THE ELLIPTICAL
EXERCISER on page 14.
HOW TO ADJUST THE REED SWITCH
If the console does not display correct feedback, the
reed switch should be adjusted. To adjust the reed
switch, first remove the screws from the left and right
side shields; there are two sizes of screws in the
side shields—note which size of screw you remove
from each hole. Gently pull the side shields apart and
remove the convenience tray.
Next, see the drawing below and locate the Reed
Switch (50). Loosen, but do not remove, the indicated
M4 x 16mm Self-tapping Screw (79). Slide the Reed
Switch slightly toward or away from a Magnet (55) on
the flywheel.

Then, retighten the Screw. Turn one of the crank arms
(36) for a moment. Repeat until the console displays
correct feedback. When the Reed Switch is correctly
adjusted, replace the convenience tray and reattach the
left and right side shields.
HOW TO ADJUST THE DRIVE BELT
If the pedals slip while you are pedaling, even while
the resistance is adjusted to the highest setting, the
drive belt may need to be adjusted. To adjust the drive
belt, first remove the screws from the left and right
side shields; there are two sizes of screws in the
side shields—note which size of screw you remove
from each hole. Gently pull the side shields apart and
remove the convenience tray.
Next, locate the Idler Screw (68) and loosen it one half
turn. Step onto the elliptical exerciser and move the
pedals. If the pedals continue to slip, turn the Idler
Screw another half turn and test the pedals again.
Continue in this way until the pedals no longer slip.
Then, replace the convenience tray and reattach the
side shields.
