Setting upyour trainer:
Brake assembly:
Your Trainerissupplied with the brakes unassembled and requires two 13mmspanners for
assembly.
The bolt, washers and nut are on each unit in the correct position and order –please take note of how
these are ordered as image below.
1) Using the 13mm spanners remove the nut andone of the washers –ensure two washers remain in
place.

2) Slide the brake on the bolt –ensure locking spigot (hook type end) isfacing down and brake rests
on stopper.
3) Slide the one washer back onto bolt and then tighten nut.
Important:
When assembled correctly your brake should be stiff to move - to operate correctly it relieson this
friction fit to engage the locking spigot on the rollers.

Trainer alignment:
1) Lay the units on a flat level surface side by side with the brakes on the outside.
2) Align the unitsand then using the spacers lock the two unitstogether.
Undo one of the rubber thumb nuts, thread through putting spacer tube in the middle and screw
rubber thumb nut back on otherside.
There is one spacer lock at the front and one between rollers –first hole after rollers.

Important:
Ensure spacer are tight and secure as front spacer is used for retaining strap hook.

Ramps:
1) Slot the ramps in place with the longeredge on the outside.

Trainer Smart assembly:
Record your speed, distance and heartrate –you can upgrade at any time.
1) Slot the sensor in position and ensure the sensor arm isin line with the magnet on the roller-
approx 4mm away from the magnet as it rotates. Gently adjust sensor arm so distance is correct.
You will see a blue light flashing on the sensor when it has connected and is in the correct position.
(To activate the sensor you may need to put the magnet close initially)
2) To record speed, distance and heart rate - see separate ‘setting up sensor’instructions and how to
connect to your phone.

Using the trainer:
Getting on:
Ensure the brake is in the off position - movement in the rollers helpsin getting on.
Brake on
Brake off
To get onto the trainerline each wheel in the middle of each ramp
Then reverse backwards slowly up the ramp - if possible leaning forward slightly –until you are on
rollers and in position. Check each wheel is approximately in the middle of each roller.

Retaining strap:
We advise that the retaining strap isused at all times.
Using the retaining strap, hook this to the front bar underyour wheelchair seat (NOT THE REAR
AXLE!) then hook the otherend onto the front spacer lock - pull the cord to tighten and secure
yourself in place.
To release there is a release ‘button’ on the unit which when pulled loosens the rope.

Getting off:
When you have finished your work-out and ready to get off the trainerrelease the restraining strap
moving it out of the way ensuring it does not obstruct your exit down the ramp
Pull the brakes up until they are vertical which is the on position - push your wheels slowly until the
rollerspigot pin engageswith the brake, maintaining a constant pressure on your wheels push
forward asnormal and go down the ramp.
Note: Once the rollers have engaged with the brake do not go backwards with your wheels.
Adjusting Rollers:
The rollers are set to be in the optimal position formost wheelchairsizes –however you are able to
adjust the rollersto change the seating position of your wheelchair.
If you are sitting and leaning too farback and want to position more forward –bring rollerscloser
together.
If you are sitting and leaning too farforward and want to position back more –bring rollers further
apart.
You will need an Allen (hex) key (not included)to remove the thread in each end of the roller,which
you can then remove and set in anotherposition.
Ensure both rollers are set in the same position each side.
