Setting Up the EFX

You do not need any special knowledge or experience to set up the EFX. However, you
will need assistance. Because of the size and weight of the unit, it is recommended that
at least two adult persons assemble the EFX.

Installation Requirements

Follow these installation requirements when installing the EFX. If you do not install the unit
according to the following guidelines, you could void the Precor limited warranty.
• Set up the EFX on a solid, flat surface. Unpack and assemble the unit close to
where you plan to use it. Make sure that the flat surface under the unit is smooth
and level. A level unit is required for the user's safety and proper operation.
Important: If you plan to move the EFX, do so before you install the handlebars.
Ask for assistance to move the unit. Once the handlebars are in place, the unit is
too wide to fit through a standard (32") door frame.
• Provide ample space around the unit. Open space around the unit makes for a
safer mount and dismount.
• Fill out and mail the limited warranty card. Be sure that the EFX is turned OFF.
To locate the serial number, place yourself at the rear of the unit facing the display
console, kneel down and look at rear label near the power receptacle. Write the
serial number onto the Precor limited warranty card found on the back cover of this
manual. Refer to Obtaining Service on page 9 and write the number(s) there as well.
• Use the appropriate voltage and grounding as specified on the EFX. The unit is
available in a 120-volt model. Refer to the unit's identification label to determine the
voltage that is required.

Assembly Instructions

Take the following steps to assemble the EFX. It is recommended that at least two
adult persons help with assembling the unit.
To assist you in the assembly, the items in the Hardware kit, shown in Diagram 4,
correspond to a particular letter in the alphabet. These letters appear throughout the
assembly instructions. Refer to Diagram 4, as needed.
1. Obtain assistance. Ask for assistance to help assemble the EFX. Have the
assistant(s) help place the shipping carton close to the location where you plan
to use the unit. Breakdown the side walls of the shipping carton so that they lie
flat. Remove the loose contents.
2. Make sure that the power is OFF. Check the ON/OFF power switch on the rear
of the base assembly. Place the switch in the O (OFF) position. Make sure that
the unit is not plugged into a power source.
3. Move the unit to the location where you plan to use it. When fully assembled,
the EFX5.33 is heavy and difficult to move. To avoid injury or damage to the unit,
ask your assistant(s) for help in placing the EFX where you plan to use it.
4. Prepare for the attachment of the upright support to the base assembly.
Remove the four phillips-head screws (D), two bolts (G), and two washers (H) from
the Hardware kit. Place one washer (H) on each of the two bolts (G). Keep the
fasteners together. Refer to Diagrams 5 and 6.
