HOW TO USE THE EXERCISE CYCLE

HOW TO ADJUST THE SEAT
To adjust the position of
the seat, first loosen the
seat knob. Then, move
the seat forward or back-
ward to the desired
position, and firmly
tighten the seat knob.
HOW TO ADJUST THE SEAT POST
For effective exercise, the seat should be at the
proper height. As you pedal, there should be a slight
bend in your knees when the pedals are in the lowest
position.
To adjust the height of
the seat post, first loosen
the post handle. Next,
slide the seat post
upward or downward to
the desired position, and
then tighten the post
handle. Make sure that
the post handle is
firmly tightened against
the seat post.
HOW TO ADJUST THE HANDLEBAR
To adjust the position of
the handlebar, first
loosen the handlebar
handle. Then, move the
handlebar forward or
backward to the desired
position, and firmly
tighten the handlebar
handle.
Note: The handlebar handle functions like a ratchet.
Turn the handle on the handlebar handle counter-
clockwise, pull the handle outward, turn the handle
clockwise, push the handle inward, then turn the han-
dle counterclockwise again. Repeat this process until
the handlebar handle is loose.
