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.
CONSOLE TROUBLESHOOTING
If the console does not display your heart rate when
you hold the handgrip pulse sensor, or if the displayed
heart rate appears to be too high or too low, see step
5 on page 16.
HOW TO ADJUST THE DRIVE BELT
If the pedals
slip while you 71
are pedaling,
even while the
resistance is
adjusted to the
highest level,
the drive belt
may need to
be adjusted. To

belt, first use a
flat screwdriver
to rotate the right Disc (71) counterclockwise. Then,
remove the right Disc from the right Disc Mount (72).
Locate and loosen the Idler Bolt (120). Next, tighten
the Belt Adjustment Screw (88) until the Drive Belt (not

reed switch should be adjusted. To adjust the reed
switch, first use a flat screwdriver to rotate the left disc

Next, locate the Reed Switch (38). Turn the Pulley

aligned with the Reed Switch. Loosen, but do not
remove, the M4 x 16mm Reed Switch Screw (69).
Slide the Reed Switch slightly closer to or away from
the Magnet. Then, retighten the Reed Switch Screw.
Turn the Pulley for a moment. Repeat until the con-

HOW TO GREASE THE ROLLERS
See the EXPLODED DRAWING near the end of this
manual. If the Rollers (51) squeak when moving on
the Ramp (3), apply a small amount of white marine
grease equally to each Roller. Spread the grease
evenly around the Rollers. Pedal the elliptical exer-
ciser until a thin film of grease is distributed along the
Ramp; then, wipe off any excess grease.
