Safety instructions 2
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
The Tomahawk Indoor Cycle has a fixed
fly-wheel, rather than a 'free wheel' facility.
With a fixed-fly wheel mechanism, the
pedals continue to turn when the wheel is
moving. This should be pointed out to
clients to ensure cycling safety.
Clients should only use the Tomahawk
cycle after a thorough introduction by a
qualified instructor
Cycling should be performed with
controlled movement and always with some
resistance on the fly-wheel
Clients should be advised to wear close
fitting fitness clothes or special bike wear
Indoor cycling is not advised for children
under 14 years of age
Should dizziness or sickness occur, stop
training immediately

Important instruction regarding reverse cycling 3
IMPORTANT INSTRUCTION
To all trainers holding an
INDOOR CYCLING class ! ! !
It is essential to be aware that
during the class reverse cycling
does not take place whilst using
resistance,otherwise the screw
connection (thread) on the pedal
axle to the crank arm can be
loosened. Loosening of the
connection may result in the
pedal becoming detached from
the crank arm.

Usage, care and cleaning
of the bikes by class participants
 Before each class
 After each class

Usage, care and cleaning of the bikes 4
Usage, care and cleaning of the bikes by the class participants!
The regular care procedures must take place after each class
and should be carried out by the
each bike user. Make sure that enough soft paper towels
or cleaning cloths as well as
maintenance and disinfectant products are available in the cycling room for this purpose.
For reasons of hygiene it is necessary to clean the handlebar and the saddle with a
disinfectant spray, after each class. It is also n
ecessary to clean the frame of any sweat
residue, to ensure a clean bike for the next class participant. For this purpose it’s best to spray
the affected areas with WD40
maintenance spray and then subsequently rub them with a dry
cloth.
Cleaning:
Spray the Brunox
maintenance
spray, which is recommended by the
manufacturer, onto a cloth and rub
down the frame parts and the chain
guard with it.
Before the beg
inning of each class, check that the bikes
are in a stable position. This should be carried out for
the safety of class participants. The underside of the
frame bearers (stabilizers) on TOMAHAWK INDOOR
CYCLES are equipped with feet on which the level can
b
e regulated, in order to ensure a stable position on an
uneven surface.
1. Before each class
2. After each class
Disinfectant
:
Lightly spray the handlebar and the
sadd
le with the disinfectant spray and
rub the surfaces dry with a cloth.

Part 3
Regular care procedures to be carried out
by employees
after EVERY 10 hours of usage
 Thorough cleaning of the bikes
 Maintenance of the brake pads
 Emergency brake function

Care procedures after every 10 HOURS OF USAGE 5
So that the brake system’s very
sensitive resistance regulation can
maintain its optimum effect, and in
order to mi
nimise the wear and tear
of the brake pads: the brake pads’
supporting surface should be
sprayed ( slightly saturated )with
sufficient Brunox spray.
In addition, the correct set-
up and
adjustment of the brake pads
should undergo a visual check.
(see also Chapter C, Position 9 –
Set-up of the brake system)
1. Thorough cleaning of the bikes –after EVERY 10 hours of usage
Spray the
Brunox
m
aintenance
spray onto a cloth and rub down the
bike. Parts which cannot properly
be cleaned with the cloth, (like for
example the brake system, flywheel
hub and axle) should be sprayed
with the maintenance spray so that
a light oily film forms on these
parts.
2. Maintenance of the brake pads –after EVERY 10 hours of usage
