of the barrel of the Bolt Set. Then, turn the screw
of the Bolt Set a few turns into the barrel. Do not
overtighten the Bolt Set; the left Handlebar Leg
must be able to pivot freely.

HOW TO MOVE AND LEVEL THE ELL PT CAL
EXERC SER
Due to the size and weight of the elliptical exer-
ciser, moving it requires two persons. With the help
of another person, lift the handle on the rear of the el-
liptical exerciser until the elliptical exerciser will roll on
the front wheels. Carefully move the elliptical exerciser
to the desired location and then lower it.
CAUT ON: To decrease the risk of injury, bend your
legs and keep your back straight. Make sure to use
your legs rather than your back to lift the elliptical
exerciser. Do not attempt to move the elliptical exer-
ciser over an uneven surface.
If the elliptical exerciser rocks slightly on your floor, see
the inset drawings and turn the levelling feet under the
front and rear of the elliptical exerciser until the rocking
motion is eliminated.
EXERC S NG ON THE ELL PT CAL EXERC SER
To mount the elliptical exerciser, hold the handlebars
and step onto the pedal that is in the lowest position.
Next, step onto the other pedal. Push the pedals until
they begin to move with a continuous motion.
To dismount the elliptical exerciser, wait until the ped-
als come to a complete stop. The elliptical exerciser
does not have a free wheel; the pedals will con-
tinue to move until the flywheel stops. When the
pedals are stationary, step off the highest pedal first.
Then, step off the lowest pedal.
