OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Operating the STAR TRAC PRO BIKE is very easy. Simply mount the bike, begin pedaling, and press QUICK START. Learning
the features and incorporating the STAR TRAC PRO BIKE into your members' fitness programs is just as easy. In this chapter,
you will learn the display function and how to get the most out of every STAR TRAC PRO BIKE workout.
IMPORTANT: Before operating the bike, you must be familiar with the following equipment limitations:
■
Maximum Weight: Your STAR TRAC PRO BIKE is designed for a maximum user weight of 350 lbs/159 kg. DO NOT
exceed the maximum user weight.
SEAT ADJUSTMENTS
Proper seat positioning helps ensure maximum exercise efficiency and comfort, while reducing the risk of injury. Always adjust
the seat position prior to beginning your workout.
IMPORTANT: When adjusting the seat height for either bike, your knee should never completely “lock out” during any portion of
the cycle pattern.
Adjusting Seat Height (Pro Upright Bike)
When sitting on the seat of your Pro Upright Bike, your knees should be
almost fully extended when the pedals are at the lowest point of their rota-
tion. To adjust the seat height:
NOTE: When raising the seat, the seat will ratchet up when pulled.
When lowering the seat, you must use the seat release knob.
With the pedal at its lowest point of rotation, stand on the pedal
with your knee slightly bent. To raise the seat, carefully lift up on
the “nose” of the saddle and raise the seat to the desired position
(the seat release knob does not need to be pulled out). To lower the
seat, carefully pull out on the seat release knob (located at the rear
of the seat tube) and lower the seat to the desired position. Release
the knob, ensuring that the spring retracts to its original position,
and that the seat stays firmly in place.
Note your height adjustment (shown on the front of the seat post)
for future reference. This number is the highest number visible on
the seat post.

Adjusting Seat Position (Pro Recumbent
Bike)
When sitting on the seat of your Pro Recumbent Bike, your knees should be
almost fully extended when the pedals are at the lowest point of their rota-
tion. To adjust the seat position:
Sit on the seat and grasp the seat adjustment handle (located
under the seat). Lift up on the handle, and slide the seat forward
or backward on the seat carriage to the closest available position
that allows your knees to be slightly bent toward the lower pedal.
Release the handle, ensuring that the spring retracts to its origi-
nal position, and that the seat stays firmly in place.
Note your height adjustment (shown on the top of the seat rail
either in front of or behind the seat) for future reference.
PEDAL STRAP OPERATION
The pedal straps should be adjusted to hold eadh foot comfortably but firm-
ly on the pedal. Place your foot on the pedal, then adjust the pedal strap as
necessary. Pull the free end of the strap down to tighten. Press the release
button to loosen.
HEART RATE BAR OPERATION (PRO
RECUMBENT BIKE)
After adjusting the seat to a comfortable riding position, grasp the heart
rate grip and press the red release button with your thumb. Pull the heart
rate bar out to a comfortable position, and release the button. BE SURE to
return the heart rate bar to its original position before dismounting the

TRAINING TOOLS PROGRAMS
The TRAINING TOOLS programs include the HEART RATE CONTROL and WATTS CONTROL programs, and the FIT TEST program. When
using the HEART RATE CONTROL programs, use of the heart rate strap (rather than the heart rate grips) is recommended.
HEART RATE CONTROL PROGRAMS
TRAINING TOOLS offers both a Dynamic Heart Rate Control program and a Constant Heart Rate Control program.
NOTE: For best results, use a heart rate strap. If user is wearing a heart rate strap, the bike will automatically use the data from
the heart rate strap.
To calculate your training zone, use the following formulas:
(theoretical max HR = 220 - Age)
To operate the Dynamic Heart Rate Control pro-
gram:
Heart Rate Training Range Upper Level
This heart rate feature is designed to gradually elevate
_____________________x 0.75 = ___________________________
Your Theoretical Max Training Range Upper Limit
your heart rate to the upper end of your selected training
range, then gradually decrease your heart rate to the
lower end of your selected training range by dynamically
controlling pedaling resistance. During the workout, this
cycle will repeat several times until the time goal is com-
plete, creating an interval training effect that is cus-
tomized to the user’s desired heart rate training range.
Heart Rate Training Range Lower Level
_____________________x 0.60 = ___________________________
Your Theoretical Max
Training Range Lower Limit
NOTE: Calculating your theoretical maximum heart rate using
age is an approximation. For more information, please contact a
fitness professional or doctor.
During program setup, there must be at least an 18 BPM
difference between the lower heart rate limit and upper
heart rate limit to ensure an interval workout.
By including interval exercise in your regular aerobic program, greater effects are noticed. Your heart and muscles will adapt to
the increases in demand by utilizing stored calories for energy more effectively. Dynamic Heart Rate Control may potentially
result in more calories expended. It will strengthen the heart, provide stress relief and variety to a workout. This program is more
effective in training the body to remove excess lactic acid from the muscles.

FITNESS TEST
The Fitness Test performs a single-stage, sub-maximal protocol, and calculates the results using the Astrand-Rhyming nomogram.
The Fitness Test requires 6~7 minutes to complete. During the Fitness Test, you will be required to pedal at a constant 60 revo-
lutions per minute (RPM). You can view your RPM’s in the RPM field in the center of the Message Window (located at the top of
the Display Panel).
NOTE: The test information is invalid if the RPM is not maintained at approximately 60 RPM.
You are required to raise your heart rate between 120 and 170 BPM for minutes 5, 6 and 7 (optional minute determined by the
program). It is best to use a heart rate strap to properly measure your heart rate.
If, during the test, your heart rate reading levels out increase the resistance LEVEL, but DO NOT change the speed at which you
are pedaling.
The Fitness Test utilizes age, gender, weight, workload output and HR to calculate two values:
■
Max VO2 (in m/O2/Kg/min) - measurement of oxygen consumption, which is used to define aerobic fitness.
Fitness Level - allows a user to track progress on a scale from 0% to 100%.
