[] Moving Your Airdyne/Evolution Comp Bike
To move the Airdyne bike, carefully lift the rear end of the bike
and teer it to another location. Be gentle while moving the unit
as any sharp impact directly or indirectly to the computer can
affect operation (Fig 6).
[] Installing New Computer Batteries
Your Airdyne/Evolution Comp computer comes complete with
fresh batteries already installed. Signs that battery power is
low include: fading LCD display; erratic function; or failure to
turn on when the ON/OFF button is pushed or when the ped-
als are put into motion. To install new AA batteries, just pop
open the battery door in the back of the computer (Fig. 7).
[] Adjusting the Drive Chain or Belt Tension
The drive chain and belt tension on your Airdyne bike have
been factory adjusted. They should not require any immediate
attention, if they need further adjustment at any point in time,
contact your authorized Schwinn dealer.
[] Fanwheel alignment
The fanwheet alignment on your Airdyne bike has been factory
adjusted. It should not require any immediate attention. If
it does need further adjustment at any point in time, contact
your authorized Schwinn dealer.
[] Leveling your Airdyne/Evoiution Comp Bike
The Airdyne/Evolution Comp Bike can be leveled to compen-
sate for uneven surfaces. To level the bike, raise or lower
the four leveling bolts located on the underside of the legs by
screwing them in or out as needed (Fig. 8).
[] Locking your Airdyne/Evolution Comp Bike
A locking device has been provided to prevent the drive
mechanism from rotating accidentally. To lock the Airdyne,
rotate the knob on the fan cage clockwise until the stop en-
gages the fanwheel. It is now securely locked in place (Fig. 9).
To unlock the bike, rotate the knob counterclockwise
until the stop is completely clear of the fanwheet. To reduce
the risk of accidental injury, always engage the locking
mechanism when the bike is net in use, NOTE: if you hear a
clicking noise while exercising, make certain that the locking
knob is completely unscrewed and clear of the fanwheel.
[] Maintenance
Use a damp cloth to wipe your Airdyne/Evolution Comp
Bike and computer free of sweat. IMPORTANT: To avoid
damaging the finish on your Airdyne/Evolution Comp Bike
and computer, never use a petroleum-based solvent when
cleaning. Avoid getting excessive moisture on the com-
puter.
