Quick Tips
AC Adaptor:
The GB7008EMS does need to be plugged into a standard electrical outlet. The AC
adaptor connects at the rear base of the unit, at ground level, on the end of the unit that
is beneath the seat. The display is powered by the adaptor and does not need
batteries.
Levelers:
There are levelers in the front of the unit, beneath the shroud. Please adjust the
levelers to stabilize the unit on your floor.
Seat Adjustments:
The GB7008EMS seat position can be adjusted forward and backward by pulling the
long yellow bar located on the right side of the seat. The handle on the left of the seat
allows the seat to swivel for easy access. In addition you can adjust the tilt of the
GB7008EMS seat back by pulling the knob located on the back cushion support.
Quick Start:
If you would like to start a simple workout, press the Start Button and use the arrows to
set the resistance. It will automatically start you at level 1.
Heart Rate:
If you would like to monitor your heart rate while using the GB7008EMS, simply use
any chest belt. There is a wireless heart rate receiver in the display and it will
automatically connect with all common brands of chest belts (i.e. Polar, Garmin etc).
If you don’t already have one, local sporting goods stores are a good place to purchase.
The Polar FT1 is one model that works well.
