HOW TO USE THE ELLIPTICAL EXERCISER

EXERCISING ON THE ELLIPTICAL EXERCISER

To mount the elliptical exerciser, 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
recommended that you move the pedals disks in
the direction shown below; however, to give vari-
ety to your exercise, you may choose to turn the
pedal disks in the opposite direction. 

To dismount the elliptical exerciser, wait until the ped-
als come to a complete stop. 

CAUTION: The ellipti-

cal exerciser does not have a freewheel; the ped-
als 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.
