SAFETY
PRECAUTIONS
11
Only put your feet into the foot shells while seated (or laying down).
Never step in with full force while standing upright. Do not put more
than 25 kg / 55 lbs (viva2) or 15 kg / 33 lbs (gracile12) (at a 7 cm / 2.8 in.
pedal radius) of weight onto either pedal.
One-sided training, either with only one leg/arm or with big differences
in weight of the limbs should be done only under supervision of a
person in charge and only in a higher gear.
If you use a
magnet switch (item no. 215,000)
to switch off the
MOTOmed, pay attention the neck band does not get tangled in the
pedal crank, as this may lead to injuries.
Before starting the training with a device equipped with an
acoustic
switch (item no. 216.000)
please ensure that the acoustic switch is
not the only possible method to stop the MOTOmed.
Arm/upper body training
During arm/upper body training the feet have to be taken out of the
foot shells.
When loosening the fixing screw, the arm/upper body trainer might
tilt down a bit due to its own weight. Therefore open the fixing screw
slowly and hold the arm/upper body trainer firmly in its position. When
adjusting the arm trainer to its position, the arms must not be fixed to
the cranks.
While height adjusting the arm trainer, pay attention to sufficient
legroom. When using the leg trainer, the legs must not collide with the
arm trainer.
