HOW TO USE THE HEALTHRIDER ¨ MOMENTUM
PLUGGING IN THE POWER CORD
Plug the power
cord into a 120-volt
outlet. The displays
and indicators on
the console will
flash once; the dis-
plays and various
indicators will then
light and a tone will
sound. Please
read through all instructions in this section before
using the MOMENTUM.
HOW TO EXERCISE ON THE MOMENTUM
To mount the MOMENTUM, hold the handlebars 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 rec-
ommended that you move the pedals disks in the
direction shown below; however, to give variety to
your exercise, you may choose to turn the pedal
disks in the opposite direction.
To dismount the MOMENTUM, wait until the pedals
come to a complete stop. CAUTION: The MOMEN-
TUM does not have a freewheel; the pedals 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.
INCLINE ADJUSTMENT
The incline frame can be raised or lowered to vary the
intensity of your exercise. To raise the incline frame,
lift the end of the incline frame until the crossbar is
resting on top of the incline bracket. Make sure that
the incline frame is resting securely on top of the
incline bracket. To lower the incline frame, first lift
the incline frame slightly. Then, push the incline brack-
et toward the upright and lower the incline frame onto
the stabilizer.
HOW TO USE THE UPPER BODY ARMS
The upper body arms are designed to give you a total
body workout. As you exercise, move the upper body
arms forward and back in order to work your arms,
back, and shoulders.
To vary the intensity of your upper body exercise, the
resistance of the upper body arms can be adjusted.
To increase the resistance, turn the arm resistance
knob clockwise; to decrease the resistance, turn the
knob counterclockwise.
