ASSEMBLY
There are several areas during the assembly process that special attention must be paid. It is very important to follow the assembly
instructions correctly and to make sure all parts are firmly tightened. If the assembly instructions are not followed correctly, the
elliptical could have parts that are not tightened and will seem loose and may cause irritating noises. To prevent damage to the
elliptical, the assembly instructions must be reviewed and corrective actions should be taken.
Before proceeding, find your elliptical’s serial number located on the front stabilizer tube and enter it in the space provided
below. Also locate the model name which is next to the serial number.
ENTER YOUR SERIAL NUMBER AND MODEL NAME IN THE BOXES BELOW:
» Refer to the SERIAL NUMBER and MODEL NAME when calling for service.
» Be sure to enter both the SERIAL NUMBER and MODEL NAME on your warranty card.
