HOW TO OPERATE THE EXERCISE CYCLE
HOW TO ADJUST THE SEAT POST
For effective exer­
cise, 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, first turn the
seat knob counter­
clockwise and
remove it. Next,
slide the seat post upward or downward and align one
of the adjustment holes in the seat post with the indi­
cated hole in the Frame. Insert the seat knob into the
frame and fhe seat post, and turn the seat knob clock­
wise until it is tight.
Make sure that the seat knob is
inserted through one of the adjustment holes in
the seat post.
HOW TO ADJUST THE PEDALING RESISTANCE
To increase the
resistance of the
pedals, turn the
resistance knob
clockwise; to
decrease the resis­
tance, turn the
knob counterclock­
wise. Important:
Stop turning the
knob when turn­
ing becomes diffi­
cult, or damage
may result.
