INSTALLATION
Instructions stated in this manual must be performed during initial installation of the
training equipment in order to ensure optimal performance and a long lifespan. Please
read and follow the following instructions carefully. If the bike is not installed and
congured as described, the components may be subjected to excessive wear and tear
and the bike may become damaged. If you have any questions regarding installation,
please contact [e-mail].
Please note: Lubricants are required for some maintenance procedures. Please only use an
acid- and solvent-free spray lubricant and white lithium grease.
1. Make sure the bike is level. If bike rocks on the oor, turn the levelling feet underneath the
front and/or rear stabilizer until the rocking motion is eliminated. Make sure that the levelling
feet are not screwed out further than 10 mm.
2. Check that both crank arm Allen bolts, with which the cranks (on the right and left side of the
bottom bracket) are fastened, are secure (tightening torque 60 NM). These bolts are provided
with TufLok® at the factory to prevent them from becoming loose during use.
If the bolts become lose, we recommend applying medium-strength LOCTITE® 243 and then
reattaching the crank xing bolts with a tightening torque of 60 NM.
3. Wipe down bike frame with a rag moistened with solvent-free spray lubricant.
4. Some parts of the bike may become loose during shipment. Check crank arms and all exposed
screws, bolts and nuts, and make sure that they are all secure and properly tightened.
CUSTOMER SERVICE
1. Provide the customer with basic maintenance instructions, and direct them to detailed
maintenance instructions.
2. Have the sign-o sheet for the manual, explanation of maintenance procedures and
verication of impeccable condition of the bikes conrmed by the customer when handing over
the goods. A copy of this conrmation counter-signed by yourself is withheld by the customer.
3. Repairs must only be carried out by manufacturer authorised service technicians.

The training equipment can be very easily adjusted, depending on the requirements of various
user groups. This enables maximum riding comfort to be ensured whilst achieving optimal
training results. The congurations described in the following paragraphs demonstrate
just a few of the most often used adjustment variations of which the training equipment is
capable. It is up to the user to adjust the training equipment to a riding position best suited
to their requirements.
ADJUSTING THE SEAT HEIGHT:
Sit on the saddle and ensure that your hip is not tilted to one side when the pedal has assumed
the position as shown in the picture. Place your shoes in the toe clips (cages) on the pedals, or
in the SPD cleats if you are using cycling shoes, if your bike is tted with a combi pedal system.

VERTICAL HANDLEBAR
ADJUSTMENT
WARNING!
Do not adjust seat and handlebar during exercise. Ensure that all levers (vertical and horizontal)
are closed, before you sit on the bike and always step o the bike when making adjustments to
the handlebars and/or saddle.
Start pedalling slowly, until the pedal has reached the position as shown in the picture.
The vertical saddle sliders should be adjusted so that your knees are always slightly bent
when this pedal position is reached, without dropping your hip one side. Rule of thumb:
When standing next to the bike, the upper edge of the saddle should be a hand‘s width/four
ngers below your iliac crest. Please avoid cycling with your knees fully extended or your hip
tilted to one side.

WARNING!
Ensure that all levers (vertical and horizontal) are closed, before sitting on the bike and always step o the bike when
making adjustments to the handlebars and/or saddle.
ADJUSTING THE SADDLE HORIZONTALLY:
Properly positioning the saddle horizontally is very important in order to avoid injury to the
knees. Sit on the saddle and move the pedals until the crank arms are in the horizontal position.
The knee of your forward-facing leg should be positioned directly above the centre of the pedal.
If this does not correspond to your bike‘s setting, please align the horizontal saddle adjustment
to the front or rear in order to attain this seat position.

HOW TO ADJUST THE
IC8 POWER TRAINER
The next step is to adjust the horizontal position of the handlebar as precisely as possible to your
height. An ideal and protective seating position for inexperienced riders is achieved if your back
assumes an inclination at an angle of 45°.
The handlebars oer a wide variety of hand positions and adjustment possibilities, which provide
the experienced rider with every possibility to nd his/her ideal seating and hand positioning.
It is recommended to change hand positions frequently during extended workouts in order to
minimise one-sided and monotonous exertions on your muscles, ligaments and joints.
HANDLEBAR POSITIONING:
Begin with the top of the handlebars at approximately the same height as the saddle
(dotted horizontal line A in the drawing below) for inexperienced users set to the“0“ marking
(see dotted vertical line B in the drawing below). If your knees touch the handlebars or if
you experience back discomfort when pedalling in the standing riding position for extended
periods, the handlebars should rst be adjusted slightly higher.
