HOW TO USE THE ELLIPTICAL CROSSTRAINER
EXERCISING ON THE ELLIPTICAL CROSSTRAINER
To mount the elliptical crosstrainer, hold the handgrip
pulse sensor 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 turn the
pedal disks in the direction shown by the arrow
below; however, to give variety to your exercise,
you may turn the pedal disks in the opposite
direction.
To dismount the elliptical crosstrainer, wait until the
pedals come to a complete stop. The elliptical
crosstrainer does not have a free wheel; 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.
HOW TO ADJUST THE PEDALS
The motion of the
pedals is deter-
mined by their
position on the
spring arms.
Their are five dif-
ferent pedal posi-
tions. To adjust
the pedals, first
loosen the knob
beneath each
pedal. Slide the pedals forward or backward to the
desired position, and then retighten the knobs. Make
sure that both pedals are in the same position.
INCLINE ADJUSTMENT
As you exercise on the elliptical crosstrainer, you can
vary the effect of the exercise by raising or lowering
the incline frame. First, position the pedal arms side
by side. Next, lift the incline frame slightly and pull
the incline knob. Raise or lower the incline frame to
the desired position and then release the incline knob.
Move the incline frame up or down slightly until
the pin on the incline knob snaps into one of the
holes in the incline bracket. Push the incline knob
to make sure that the pin is fully inserted into the
hole.
HOW TO USE THE UPPER BODY ARMS
The upper body
arms are designed
to add upper-body
exercise to your
workouts. As you
exercise, push
and pull the upper
body arms in
order to work your
arms, back, and
shoulders. To
exercise only your
lower body, hold
the handgrip pulse
sensor as you
exercise.
