ASSEMBLY

IMPORTANT:  READ THESE SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USE!

There are several areas during the assembly process of an elliptical that special attention must be paid. 

It  is  very  important  to  follow  the  assembly  instructions  correctly  and  to  make  sure  all  parts  are  firmly 

tightened.  If the assembly instructions are not followed correctly, the elliptical could have frame parts that 

are not tightened and will seem loose and may cause irritating noises. To prevent damage to the elliptical, 

the assembly instructions must be reviewed and corrective actions should be taken.

UNPACKING

Unpack the product where you will be using it. Place the product on a level flat surface. It is recommended 

that you place a protective covering on your floor. During each assembly step, ensure that ALL nuts and 

bolts are in place and partially threaded in before completely tightening any ONE bolt.

NOTE:

 A light application of grease may aid in the installation of hardware. Any grease, such as lithium 

bike grease is recommended.

Before proceeding, find your elliptical’s serial number 

located on the front stabilizer tube and enter it in the 

space  provided  below.  Also  locate  the  model  name 

which is located on the mast boot.

ENTER  YOUR  SERIAL  NUMBER  AND 

MODEL NAME IN THE BOXES BELOW:
