Grounding Instructions
This PULSE FITNESS product must be properly grounded. If the unit malfunctions or breaks
down, proper grounding provides a path of least resistance for the electric current, which
reduces the risk of shock to anyone touching or using the equipment. Each unit is equipped
with an electrical cord, which includes an equipment grounding conductor and a grounding
plug. The plug must be inserted into an outlet that has been properly installed and grounded in
accordance with all local codes and ordinances.
DANGER – Improper connection of the equipment-grounding conductor can result in a risk of
electric shock. Check with a qualified electrician or serviceman if you are in doubt as to
whether the product is properly grounded. DO NOT modify the plug provided with the product.
If it will not fit an electrical outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician. Any
modification to the electrical plug will result in a voided warranty.
Note: This product is for use on a nominal 120-volt circuit and has a grounding plug that looks
like the plug illustrated in the figure. Make sure that the product is connected to an outlet having
the same configuration as the plug. No adapter should be used with this product.

Installation
Location
Select a suitable location for the PULSE FITNESS Crossclimb (Seated Independent Stepper)
before moving it. The site you choose should meet the following requirements:
ŸA flat, level and clean surface.
ŸClose to a suitable power socket.
ŸWell away from sources of water (or other liquids) or away from areas that is subject to
condensation.
ŸAway from direct sunlight (this can make it difficult to view the screen).
Note: The Seated Independent Stepper is not suitable for outdoor use.
If the chosen surface is carpet then the Seated Independent Stepper can be pushed to the
desired position on its front wheels (this is a two person procedure). However, if the surface is
more resistant, or the Seated Independent Stepper has to be lifted and lowered into place, then
four people will be required.
CAUTION
This equipment is heavy! We do not recommend attempting to lift it without assistance, at least
four people should lift the Seated Independent Stepper when necessary.
NEVER attempt to lift the Seated Independent Stepper by its Console or Handlebars.
Feet Adjustment
After placing the PULSE FITNESS Crossclimb (Seated Independent Stepper) in position, check
the unit’s stability by attempting to rock it. Any slight rocking indicates that the unit must be
levelled. Check the front stabilising feet to determine which foot does not rest fully on the floor.
If necessary, adjust the height of the feet to compensate. Turn the feet to the left or right to
increase or decrease the height as appropriate. When satisfied, securely fasten the locknut
against the feet strut.
WARNING - When installing or adjusting any piece of Pulse Fitness equipment, DO NOT leave
any adjustment devices projecting which could cause injury to any third party.

What is the Crossclimb?
The PULSE FITNESS Crossclimb is a non weight-bearing, weight-loading exercise system. Regular
use produces increased aerobic capacity as well as stronger muscles and bones. This machine
prevents the users injury risk from high impact on joints as activities such as running.
The Crossclimb allows the user independent control of both speed level and resistance. The
exercise resistance can be controlled with the + and - buttons positioned on the ends of the
handgrips. A strength workout consists of lower exercise speeds and heavier resistance. A power
workout combines faster exercise speeds and heavy resistance. Fast exercise speeds and lighter
resistance improve leg speed. An endurance programme using slower speeds and lighter weights is
ideal for the long-duration workouts recommended by weight-control experts.
Intuitively designed, low-maintenance, reliability delivering an optimal workout.
