Precor Heart Rate Option—Safety Guidelines
A heart rate receiver is installed in the EFX display console. It is activated when you
wear a POLAR®chest strap during your workout. Once a heart beat is detected, it is
displayed on the console.
The Precor Heart Rate Option was created and designed exclusively for Precor
products.The equipment is extremely sensitive—you should use the heart rate option
with this in mind and take time to read the guidelines found on page 37.

RFI — Radio Frequency Interference
Federal Communications Commission, Part 15
The EFX®5.23 has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B
digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules.These limits are designed to
provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installa-
tion.The EFX generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not
installed and used in accordance with the owner’s manual instructions, may cause
harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that
interference will not occur in a particular installation.
If the EFX does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which
can be determined by turning the unit OFF and ON, you are encouraged to try to
correct the interference using one or more of the following measures:
• Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna for your TV, radio, VCR, etc.
• Increase separation between the unit and the receiver (TV, radio, etc.).
• Connect the unit into a different power outlet—on a dedicated circuit different
from the one used by the receiver (TV, radio, etc.). No other appliance should be
plugged into the same power outlet that the EFX is connected to.
• Consult an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
CAUTION
Canadian Department of Communications
This digital apparatus does not exceed the Class B limits for radio noise emissions
from digital apparatus set out in the Radio Interference Regulations of the Canadian
Department of Communications.
Le présent appareil numérique n’émet pas de bruits radioéélectriques dépassant les
limites applicables aux appareils numériques de la class B prescrites dans le
Règlement sur le brouillage radioélectrique édicté par le ministére des Communica-
tions du Canada.

Safety Approval
When identified with the ETL-c logo, the unit has been tested and conforms to the
requirements of CAN/CSA-E-335-1/2-94, Safety of Household and Similar Electrical
Appliances.
Grounding Instructions
The EFX®5.23 must be grounded. If it should malfunction or break down, grounding
provides a path of least resistance for electric current which reduces the risk of
electrical shock.The unit is equipped with a power cord having an equipment-
grounding conductor and a grounding plug.The plug must be inserted into an
appropriate outlet that is properly installed and grounded in accordance with all local
codes and ordinances. If you do not follow these Grounding Instructions , you could
void the Precor limited warranty.
DANGER
Improper connection of the equipment-grounding conductor can result in a risk of
electric shock. Check with a qualified electrician or service person if you are in doubt
as to whether the unit is properly grounded. Do not modify the plug provided with the
EFX. If it doesn’t fit the outlet, get a proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician.
120V Units Designated for U.S. Markets
The EFX®5.23 is for use on a circuit with a nominal 120-volt rating.The unit’s
grounding plug looks like the plug illustrated in Diagram 1. The power outlet must
have the same configuration as the plug. No adapter should be used with this
product.

You do not need any special knowledge or experience to set up the EFX. However,
you will need to obtain appropriate assistance during assembly.
InstallationRequirements
Follow these installation requirements when installing the EFX.
Important: If you do not install the unit according to the following guidelines, you could
void the Precor limited warranty.
•Set up the EFX on a solid, flat surface. Unpack and assemble the unit close to
where you plan to use it.Make sure that the flat surface under the unit is smooth
and level. A level unit is required for the user’s safety and proper operation.
Important: If you plan to move the EFX, do so before you install the handrails.
Ask for assistance to move the unit. Once the handrails are in place, the unit is
too wide to fit through a standard (32") door frame.
•Provide ample space around the unit. Open space around the unit makes for a
safer mount and dismount.
•Fill out and mail the limited warranty card.Be sure that the EFX is turned OFF. The
serial number is printed on a label located on the rear cover near the power
receptacle. Write the serial number onto the Precor limited warranty card found on
the back cover of this manual. Refer to
Obtaining Service on page 9 and write the
number there as well.
•Use the appropriate voltage and grounding as specified on the EFX.The unit is
available in a 120-volt model.Refer to the unit’s identification label to determine the
voltage that is required.
Assembly Instructions
Take the following steps to assemble the EFX.To assist you in the assembly, the items
in the Hardware kit, shown in Diagram 3 on page 11, correspond to a particular letter
in the alphabet.These letters appear throughout the assembly instructions. Refer to
Diagram 3, as needed.
1. Obtain assistance. Ask for assistance to help assemble the EFX. Place the
shipping carton close to the location where you plan to use the unit. Breakdown the
side walls of the shipping carton so that they lie flat. Remove the loose contents.
2. Make sure that the power is OFF.Place the switch in the O (OFF) position.
Make sure that the unit is not plugged into a power source.
3. Move the unit to the location where you plan to use it. When fully assembled,
the EFX®5.23 is heavy and difficult to move. To avoid injury or damage to the
unit, ask for help in placing the EFX where you plan to use it.

the Hardware kit. Place one washer (G) on each of the two bolts (F). Keep the
fasteners together. Refer to Diagrams 6 and 7.
9. Route the display console cable through the upright support. Diagram6, #1.
Remove any tape or wire ties on the cable. Have an assistant hold the upright
support securely while you grasp the display console in one hand and route the
cable through the upright support with the other.
10. Attach the display console. Diagram 6, #2. Use the four phillips-head screws (D)
to attach the display console to the upright support. Have your assistant hold the
upright support securely while you align the mounting holes and tighten the screws.

move the upright support close to the front of the base assembly while you
thread the RJ45 cable through the grommet hole and out the front of the base
tube (refer to the inset in diagram 7, #1). Make sure that the display console (on
the upright support) faces the rear of the unit (refer to diagram 7, #2).
12. Route the lift motor cable through the cutout in the upright support.
Diagram 7, #1. While your assistant holds the upright support, thread the lift
motor cable through the cutout. Once the cable is routed, rest the upright
support on the base tube.

24. Insert the left and right handrails into the upper clamp. Diagram 16. Insert the
upper end of the handrail into the upper handrail clamp. Using one hand, apply
pressure on the portion of the handrail being inserted into the clamp while, with
the other hand, lift and lower the base of the handrail. This rotating motion helps
move the handrail into the clamp. Repeat this step for the opposite handrail.
25. Check the gap in the upper clamp. Diagram 16, inset. Look underneath the
handrail clamp to see that the gap, which exists between the two ends of the
handrails, is no greater than 1/2-inch. See Diagram 16.
Diagram 16 Insert the handrails
