HOW TO RAISE THE HOOD

Before the trouble-shooting steps on this page can be
performed, the Hood (42) must be raised. Refer to the
inset drawing below. Remove the three 3/8Ó Button
Head Screws (65) and the three 3/8Ó Lock Washers
(66) from the Upright (6).

Next, remove the #8 x 3/4Ó Screws (53) and the Star
Washer (76) attaching the Hood (42). Raise the Hood
as far as possible. 

HOW TO ADJUST THE REED SWITCH

If the console does not display correct feedback, the
Reed Switch (52) should be adjusted. To adjust the
Reed Switch, first raise the hood (see HOW TO
RAISE THE HOOD above). 

While another 
person holds the
hood, locate the
Reed Switch (52)
on the right side of
the frame. Turn
the Flywheel (30)
until the Magnet
(79) is aligned with
the Reed Switch.
Loosen, but do not

remove, the indicated #8 x 3/4Ó Screw (53). Slide the
Reed Switch slightly closer to or farther away from the
Magnet. Make sure that the Magnet will not hit the
Reed Switch. Retighten the Screw. Turn the Flywheel
for a moment. Repeat until the console displays cor-
rect feedback. When the Reed Switch is correctly
adjusted, reattach the hood. 

HOW TO ADJUST THE V-BELT

If the V-belt (44) slips as you exercise, it should be
adjusted. To adjust the V-belt, first raise the hood (see
HOW TO RAISE THE HOOD at the left).

While another 
person holds the
hood, locate the 
V-belt (44). To
tighten the V-belt,
turn the 5/16Ó Hex
Nut (47) slightly;
be careful not to
overtighten the 
V-belt. When the
V-belt is properly
adjusted, reattach
the hood.

HOW TO ADJUST THE RANGE OF RESISTANCE

If the resistance of the pedals is too high when the
resistance knob is adjusted to the lowest setting, the
Resistance Control Cable (48) should be adjusted. To
adjust the Cable, first raise the hood (see HOW TO
RAISE THE HOOD at the left). 

While another 
person holds the
hood, locate the
end of the
Resistance Control
Cable (48) below
the flywheel. To
decrease the resis-
tance of the ped-
als, loosen nut A
one or two turns
and then tighten
nut B against the bracket. Repeat until the range of
resistance is adjusted as desired. Then, reattach the
hood.
