ARE THE SOUNDS MY ELLIPTICAL MAKES NORMAL?
Our Elliptical Trainer are some of the quietest available because they use belt drives
and friction free magnetic resistance. We use the highest grade bearings and belts to
minimize noise. However, because the resistance system itself is so quiet, you will
occasionally hear other slight mechanical noises. Unlike older, louder technologies,
there are no fans, friction belts, or alternator noises to mask these sounds on our
Elliptical Trainer. These mechanical noises, which may or may not be intermittent, are
normal and are caused by the transfer of significant amounts of energy to a rapidly
spinning flywheel. All bearings, belts and other rotating parts will generate some noise
which will transmit through the casing and frame. It is also normal for these sounds
to change slightly during a workout and over time because of thermal expansion of
the parts.
WHY IS THE ELLIPTICAL TRAINER I HAD DELIVERED LOUDER THAN THE
ONE AT THE STORE?
All fitness products seem quieter in a large store showroom because there is general-
ly more background noise than in your home. Also, there will be less reverberation on
a carpeted concrete floor than on a wood overlay floor. Sometimes a heavy rubber mat
will help reduce reverberation through the floor. If a fitness product is placed close to
a wall, there will be more reflected noise.
HOW LONG WILL THE DRIVE BELT LAST?
The computer modeling we have done indicated virtually thousands of maintenance
free hours. Belts are now commonly used in far more demanding applications such as
motorcycle drives.
CAN I MOVE THE ELLIPTICAL TRAINER EASIER ONCE IT IS ASSEMBLED?
Your Horizon Fitness ELLiptical has a pair of transport wheels built into the front foot.
It is easy to move your ELLiptical by rolling it on the front transport wheels.
It is important that you place your Horizon Fitness ELLiptical in a comfortable and
inviting room. Your ELLiptical is designed to use minimal floor space. Many people will
place their ELLiptical facing the TV or a picture window. If at all possible, avoid putting
your ELL! ptical in a unfinished basement. To make exercise a desirable daily activity
for you, the Elliptical Trainer should be in an attractive setting.
