WHAT KIND OF ROUTINE MAINTENANCE IS REQUIRED?
We use sealed bearings throughout our bikes so lubrication is not needed. The most important main-
tenance step is to simply wipe your perspiration off the bike after each use.
HOW DO I CLEAN MY HORIZON FITNESS SEMI-RECUMBENT BIKE?
Clean with soap and water cleaners only. Never use solvents on plastic parts.
Cleanliness of your Horizon Fitness recumbent bike and its operating environment will keep mainte-
nance problems and service calls to a minimum. For this reason, Horizon Fitness recommends that the
following preventive maintenance schedule be followed.
AFTER EACH USE (DAILY)
Turn off the recumbent bike with the on/off switch, and unplug the power cord from the wall outlet.
