2. Set-up and Operation
Unpackaging and Assembling the medBike
Your medBike will require a minimal amount of assembly. The only tool required is an Allen
wrench; provided within the packaged contents.
Figure 2.1. medBike--packaged contents.
Begin by removing the medBike’s main pedal/motor assembly from the packaging. From inside
the tube opening (just above the knob), you will see the cable that connects the display to the
motor.
The cable will have a guide wire that can be used to move the cable up through the handlebar
stem tube. When this is complete, place the tube into the pedal/motor assembly opening, and
affix the tube with a bolt using the Allen wrench.
Use the guide wire to move the display cable up through the handlebar stem tube (Figure 2.2),
and use the Allen wrench to affix the handlebar stem tube to the pedal/motor assembly (Figure
2.3).

stem tube.
Figure 2.3. Use the Allen wrench to affix the handlebar stem tube to the pedal/motor
assembly.

Figure 2.4. Handlebars stem tube--secured in pedal/motor assembly.
Once the bottom of the handlebars stem tube has be secured, the display can be affixed to the
top. But first, the cable must be connected as illustrated below:
Figure 2.5. Connect the display cable.

15 Biodex Medical Systems, Inc. © 2017
Next, line up the holes in the back of the display with the four holes on the top of the
handlebars stem tube, and affix the two pieces with the four bolts. Use the Allen wrench to
tighten.
Figure 2.6. Connect the display.
The last step is to affix the handlebars to the handlebars stem tube. Line up the holes for the
bolts (4) and tighten with the Allen wrench.
Figure 2.7. Connect the handlebars.

Adjusting Pedals on the MedBike
Managing the degree of hip flexion for certain patients using this device could be a concern.
First, consider moving their seat back a few inches. If the seat back reclines, consider that
option as well. As for the device itself, the pedal radius is easily changed. Using the Allen
wrench, remove pedal bolt and move it into a closer hole on the crank as illustrated in
Figure 2.9 below thus reducing the radius of the pedal cranks:
Figure 2.9. Adjusting the Pedals using an Allen Wrench
Or, using the slim wrench included with the medBike, move the pedal to another optional
hole on the crank by inserting the wrench between the pedals and the crank as illustrated in
the diagrams below and unscrewing the pedal:

This method avoids damaging the inner thread of the Allen bolt.
Positioning or Relocating the medBike
CAUTION: Before moving the medBike, make sure the power cord is detached. If left
attached, the cord plug will rub against the floor as the device is being moved,
possibly causing black marks on your flooring.
ATTENTION: Avant de déplacer le medBike , faire le cordon d'alimentation est
détaché. Si elle reste attachée , la fiche du cordon se frotter contre le sol lorsque le
dispositif est déplacé, peut provoquer des marques noires sur votre plancher.
The medBike can be easily moved across smooth surfaces. To move the medBike, remove the
power cord from the base of the device. Stand behind the device and lift the back end up,
pivoting it forward until the front wheels make contact with the floor. Push or pull the device to
a new location and set it down gently
Display and Handlebars Height Adjustment
The height of the monitor display and handlebars is conveniently adjusted with the hand-turned
knob on the front of the device.
To raise or lower the display and handlebars, loosen the knob, pull up or down on the
handlebars, and re-tighten the knob.
On / Off
To turn the device on, press the black switch on the base.

of the screen (EN = English) and select <Settings>.
Figure 2.12 Home screen.
Select either the <METRIC> or <IMPERIAL> setting for your preferred units of measure. Select
the maximum number of rotations per minute (rpm) for the Passive Mode. A rotation is the

The user or clinician may elect at any time during a session to change the pedaling direction
from forward to reverse or reverse to forward. It is important to stop pedal movement
completely for a few moments while the device mechanisms reset.
CAUTION: Stop pedaling when switching between forward to reverse, and vice versa.
ATTENTION: Arrêtez de pédaler lors de la commutation entre la marche avant à la
marche arrière, et vice versa.

exercise.
