HOW TO USE THE ELLIPTICAL CROSSTRAINER

EXERCISING ON THE ELLIPTICAL CROSSTRAINER

To mount the elliptical crosstrainer, hold the handgrip
pulse sensor and step onto the pedal that is in the
lowest position. Next, step onto the other pedal. Push
the pedals until they begin to move with a continuous
motion.

Note: The pedal disks can turn in either

direction. It is recommended that you turn the
pedal disks in the direction shown by the arrow
below; however, to give variety to your exercise,
you may turn the pedal disks in the opposite
direction.

To dismount the elliptical crosstrainer, wait until the
pedals come to a complete stop.

The elliptical

crosstrainer does not have a free wheel; the ped-
als will continue to move until the flywheel stops.
When the pedals are stationary, step off the highest
pedal first. Then, step off the lowest pedal.

HOW TO ADJUST THE PEDALS

The motion of the
pedals is deter-
mined by their
position on the
spring arms.
There are five
different pedal
positions. To
adjust the pedals,
first loosen the
knob beneath

each pedal. Slide the pedals forward or backward to
the desired position, and then retighten the knobs.
Make sure that both pedals are in the same position.

INCLINE ADJUSTMENT

To further adjust the intensity of your exercise, the
incline frame can be raised or lowered. To raise the
incline frame, position the spring arms side by side.
Lift the end of the incline frame until the crossbar is
on top of the incline bracket.

Make sure that the

crossbar is resting securely on top of the incline
bracket.
To lower the incline frame, lift the incline
frame slightly, push the incline bracket toward the
upright, and then lower the incline frame onto the sta-
bilizer.

HOW TO USE THE UPPER BODY ARMS

The upper body
arms are designed
to add upper-body
exercise to your
workouts. As you
exercise, push
and pull the upper
body arms in
order to work your
arms, back, and
shoulders. To
exercise only your
lower body, hold
the handgrip pulse
sensor as you
exercise.
