TROUBLE-SHOOTING AND MAINTENANCE
Inspect and tighten all parts of the exercise cycle regu- damaged. If the chain causes excessive noise or slips
larly. To clean the exercise cycle, use a damp cloth
and mild detergent. Never use abrasives or solvents;
keep liquid away from the console.
as you pedal, check the chain in the following way:
1. Carefully pry the Access Cover (14) off the right
side shield. Reach into the access hole and press
down on the chain. There should be no more
than 1 inch, and no less than 1/4 inch, of verti-
cal movement in the center of the chain. If the
chain is properly adjusted, reattach the Access
Cover. If the chain needs to be adjusted, see step 2.
ELECTRONIC MONITOR
If the electronic monitor does not function properly, the
batteries should be replaced. Most problems are the
result of drained batteries. See assembly step 4 on
page 5 for battery installation instructions.
If the electronic monitor still does not function properly,
the sensor wire should be checked. See assembly step
4 on page 5. Slide the electronic monitor off the frame
and make sure that the sensor wire is plugged fully
into the wire on the electronic monitor.

TIGHTENING THE PEDALS
4
If the pedals become loose, tighten the pedal shafts
into the arms of the crank. Tighten the 1/2Ó Locknuts
onto the pedal shafts (see assembly step 7 on page 6).

ADJUSTING THE CHAIN
2. Pry the Access Cover (14) off the left side shield.
Loosen the M8 Washer Nuts (4). To tighten the
chain, turn the M6 Adjustment Nuts (8) clockwise;
to loosen the chain, turn the Adjustment Nuts coun-
terclockwise. Make sure that the fan is straight,
tighten the Fan Nuts and reattach the Access Covers.
The exercise cycle features a precision chain that must
be kept properly lubricated and adjusted. Apply a few
drops of light multi-purpose oil to the chain every three
months. If the chain is too tight, the bearings may be
damaged; if the chain is too loose, the fan may be

CONDITIONING GUIDELINES
The following general guidelines will help you to plan
your exercise program. Remember that proper nutri-
tion and adequate rest are essential for successful
results.
your goal is to burn fat, adjust your pace until your
heart rate is near the lowest number in your training
zone as you exercise.
For maximum fat burning, adjust your pace until your
heart rate is near the middle number in your training
zone as you exercise.
WARNING: Before beginning this or any exercise
program, consult your physician. This is espe-
cially important for individuals over the age of 35
or individuals with pre-existing health problems.
Aerobic Exercise
If your goal is to strengthen your cardiovascular
system, your exercise must be Òaerobic.Ó 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 aerobic exercise, adjust your pace until your heart
rate is near the highest number in your training zone
as you exercise.
EXERCISE INTENSITY
Whether your goal is to burn fat or 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. The chart below shows recom-
mended heart rates for fat burning, maximum fat burn-
ing, and cardiovascular (aerobic) exercise.
HOW TO MEASURE YOUR HEART RATE
To measure your heart rate, first exercise for at least
four minutes. Then, stop exercising and place two
fingers on your
wrist as shown.
Take a six-
second heart-
beat count, and
multiply the
result by 10 to
find your heart
rate. For
example, if your
six-second
To find the proper heart rate for you, first find your age
near the top of the chart (ages are rounded off to the
nearest ten years). Next, find the three numbers below
your age. The three numbers are your Òtraining zone.Ó
The lowest number is the recommended heart rate for
fat burning; the middle number is the recommended
heart rate for maximum fat burning; the highest
number is the recommended heart rate for aerobic
exercise.
heartbeat count is 14, your heart rate is 140 beats per
minute. (A six-second count is used because your
heart rate will drop rapidly when you stop exercising.)
Adjust the intensity of your exercise until your heart
rate is at the desired level.
WORKOUT GUIDELINES
Each workout should include three important parts: a
warm-up, training zone exercise, and a cool-down.
Fat Burning
A Warm-up
To burn fat effectively, you must exercise at a relative-
ly low intensity level for a sustained period of time.
During the first few minutes of exercise, your body
uses easily accessible carbohydrate calories for ener-
gy. Only after the first few minutes of exercise does
your body begin to use stored fat calories for energy. If
Start each workout with 5 to 10 minutes of stretching
and light exercise. A proper warm-up increases your
body temperature, heart rate, and circulation in prepa-
ration for strenuous exercise.

Training Zone Exercise
Exercise Frequency
After warming up, increase the intensity of your
exercise until your heart rate is in your training zone
for 20 to 30 minutes. Note: During the first few weeks
of your exercise program, do not keep your heart rate
in your training zone for longer than 20 minutes.
To maintain or improve your condition, complete three
workouts each week, with at least one day of rest
between workouts. After a few months of regular
exercise, you may complete up to five workouts each
week if desired.
A Cool-down
The key to success is to make exercise a regular and
enjoyable part of your everyday life.
Finish each workout with 5 to 10 minutes of stretching.
This will increase the flexibility of your muscles and
will help to prevent post-exercise problems.
