1. Hold one of the Stabilisers (68) against the saddle on
the front of the Base (1). Make sure that the Stabiliser
is turned so the square holes are facing away from the
saddle. Attach the Stabiliser with two M10 x 75mm
Carriage Bolts (66) and two M10 Nylon Locknuts (54).
Attach the other Stabiliser to the saddle on the back of
the Base (not shown).
2. While another person holds the Upright (2), gently
pull the Extension Wire (49) and the Resistance
Cable (33) up through the Upright until there is no
slack between the Upright and the Base (1).
Insert the four M10 x 68mm Bolts (67) up through the
Base (1). Slide the Upright (2) onto the Bolts. Be
careful to avoid pinching the Extension Wire (49)
and the Resistance Cable (33). Tighten an M10
Nylon Locknut (54) onto each Bolt.

3. Identify the Left Handlebar (6) and the Left Pedal Leg
(3) (there are stickers on the Handlebars and Pedal
Legs for identification).
Slide the Left Handlebar (6) onto the left Extension
Tube (5). Press the Handlebar Bushing (45) up into
the Left Handlebar. Align one of the three holes in the
Left Handlebar with the hole in the Extension Tube.
Insert the Left Lock Pin (37) into the holes, make sure
the Left Lock Pin is in the position shown in drawing
3a, and attach a Spring Clip (38) to the Left Lock Pin.
Attach a Pedal (29) to the Left Pedal Leg (3) with
three M4 x 16mm Screws (42).
Repeat this step to attach the Right Handlebar, right
Extension Tube, and Right Pedal Leg (not shown).
CONDITIONING GUIDELINES
The following guidelines will help you to plan your
exercise program. Remember that proper nutrition and
adequate rest are essential for successful results.
WHY EXERCISE?
Exercise has proven essential for good health and
well-being. Participation in a well-rounded exercise
program helps to develop a stronger and more effi-
cient heart, improved respiratory function, increased
stamina, better weight management, increased ability
to handle stress, and greater self-esteem.
EXERCISE INTENSITY
Whether your goal is to burn fat or to strengthen your
cardiovascular system, the key to achieving the
desired results is to exercise with the proper intensity.
The proper intensity level can be found by using your
heart rate as a guide. For effective exercise, your heart
rate should be maintained at a level between 70% and
85% of your maximum heart rate as you exercise. This
is known as your training zone. You can find your train-
ing zone in the table below. Training zones are listed
according to age and physical condition.
Burning Fat
To burn fat effectively, you must exercise at the proper
intensity level for a sustained period of time. During
the first few minutes of exercise, your body uses easi-
ly accessible carbohydrate calories for energy. Only
after the first few minutes does your body begin to use
stored fat calories for energy. If your goal is to burn
fat, it may be helpful to use the Fat Burn program to
help you to reach your goal. (See pages 8 and 9.)
Aerobic Exercise
If your goal is to strengthen your cardiovascular sys-
tem, your exercise must be “aerobic.” Aerobic exercise
is activity that requires large amounts of oxygen for
prolonged periods of time. This increases the demand
on the heart to pump blood to the muscles, and on the
lungs to oxygenate the blood. For effective aerobic
exercise, it may be helpful to use the Aerobic program
to help you to reach your goal. (See pages 8 and 9.)
To develop greater stamina, you may choose the
Interval program to help you to reach your goal. (See
pages 8 and 9.)
HOW TO MEASURE YOUR HEART RATE
To measure your
heart rate, stop exer-
cising and place two
fingers on your wrist
as shown. Take a six-
second heartbeat
count, and multiply
the result by ten to
find your heart rate.
(A six-second count is
used because your
heart rate drops quickly when you stop exercising.) If
your heart rate is too high, decrease the intensity of
your exercise. If your heart rate is too low, increase
the intensity of your exercise.
WORKOUT GUIDELINES
A proper workout includes the following parts:
A warm-up, consisting of 5 to 10 minutes of stretching
and light exercise. A proper warm-up increases the
body temperature, heart rate, and circulation in prepa-
ration for exercise.
