Before You Start
Tools
If required, most of our products are supplied with basic tools, which will
enable you to successfully assemble your product. However, you may
find it beneficial to have a soft-headed hammer and perhaps an
adjustable spanner handy as this may help.
Prepare the Work Area
It is important that you assemble your product in a clean, clear,
uncluttered area. This will enable you to move around the product while
you are fitting components and will reduce the possibility of injury during
assembly.
Work with a Friend
You may find it quicker, safer and easier to assemble this product with
the help of a friend as some of the components may be large, heavy or
awkward to handle alone.
Open the Carton
Carefully open the carton that contains your product, taking note of the
warnings printed on the carton to ensure that the risk of injury is
reduced. Be aware of sharp staples that may be used to fasten the flaps
as these may cause injury. Be sure to open the carton the right way up,
as this will be the easiest and safest way to remove all the components.
Unpack the Components
Carefully unpack each component, checking against the parts list that
you have all the necessary parts to complete the assembly of your
product.
Please note that some of the parts may be pre-fitted to major
components, so please check carefully before contacting our customer
support team.

Exercise Information
Beginning
How you begin to exercise will vary from person to person. If you have
not exercised for a long period of time, have been inactive for a while, or
are severely overweight you must start slowly, increasing your exercise
time gradually, by perhaps only a few minutes for each session per
week.
Combine a carefully structured nutritious diet with a simple but effective
exercise routine and this can help make you feel better, look better and
will almost certainly enable you to enjoy life more.
Aerobic Fitness
Aerobic exercise is simply defined as any sustained activity that
increases the supply of oxygen to your muscles via the blood pumped by
your heart. With regular exercise, your cardiovascular system will
become stronger and more efficient. Your recovery rate i.e. the time
taken for your heart to reach its normal resting level, will also decrease.
Initially you may only be able to exercise for a few minutes each day. Do
not hesitate to breathe through your mouth should you need more
oxygen. Use the "talk test". If you cannot carry on a conversation while
exercising, you are working too hard! However, aerobic fitness will be
gradually built up with regular exercise, over the next six to eight weeks.
Do not be discouraged if it takes longer than this to begin to feel less
lethargic, everyone is different and some will achieve their targets
quicker than others. Work at your own, comfortable pace and the result
will come. The better your aerobic fitness the harder you will have to
work to stay in your target zone.

Exercising Information
Warm Up
A successful exercise program consists of three parts, Warm Up,
Aerobic Exercise and Cool Down. Never start a training session without
warming up. Never finish one without cooling down correctly.
Perform between five and ten minutes of stretching before starting your
workout to prevent muscle strains, pulls and cramps.
Aerobic Exercise Session
Those new to exercise should exercise no more than every other day to
start with. As your fitness level increases, increase this to 2 in every 3
days.
When you are comfortable with your routine, exercise for 6 days per
week. Always take at least one day off per week.
Exercising In Your Target Zone
To ensure that your heart is working in its exercise target zone, you need
to be able to take your pulse. If you do not have a pulse monitor, you will
need to locate the pulse in your carotid artery. This issituated in the side
of the neck and can be felt by using the index and middle fingers. Simply
count the number of beats you feel in 10 seconds and then multiply by
six to get your pulse rate. This should be taken before you start to
exercise for easy reference.
People who have a greater aerobic fitness or a lower resting pulse level
will also be able to exercise with a higher pulse level.

Exercising Information
Cool Down
To decrease fatigue and muscle soreness, you should also
cool down by walking at a slow relaxed pace for a minute or
so, to allow your heart rate to return to normal.
Warm Up and Cool Down Exercises
Hold each stretch for a minimum of ten seconds and then
relax.
Repeat each stretch two or three times. Do this before your
Aerobic Exercise session and also after you have finished.
Head Roll

pull on the left side of your neck. Next, rotate your head back
for one count, stretching your chin. Then rotate your head to
the left for one count, feeling a slight pull on the right side of
your neck. Lastly, drop your head to your chest for one
count. Repeat 2 to 3 times.

shoulders relax as you lower your trunk. Gently stretch down
as far as is comfortable and hold for 10 seconds.

RESISTANCE ADJUSTMENT
To ensure smooth efficient cycling action, the tension belt braking
system on your Exercise Cycle has been correctly adjusted by our
factory during production.
To adjust the brake resistance during use, start by turning the Tension
Control (11) fully COUNTER-CLOCKWISE at the start of your workout.
Gradually increase the pedaling resistance by turning the Tension
Controller Knob CLOCKWISE as required.
LEVELING THE CYCLE
For security and stability, your Cycle has a factory welded frame and
once fully assembled correctly, should not need further alignment.
However, in the interest of safety, please always ensure that your Cycle
is positioned on a solid, flat surface. If necessary, use a rubber mat
underneath to reduce the possibility of slipping while in use. If you need
to make a fine adjustment simply twist the end of either Rear Frame
Stabilizer Adjustable Hex End Cap (3a) to compensate for uneven floors.

EXERCISE MONITOR FUNCTIONS
The 5 function Exercise Monitor is set to start automatically when you
begin to pedal. However, it is possible to switch on the monitor by
pressing the Mode Button at the bottom of the monitor. To save battery
consumption, the monitor will also switch off after it has been idle for
approximately four minutes.
Please refer to the leaflet supplied with the Exercise Monitor for all
operational functions.
LUBRICATION AND MAINTENANCE
The moving parts in your Cycle are all pre-lubricated at assembly and
should not require further attention. We recommend however that the
cycle is used inside and stored in a dry condition. To clean the metal and
plastic components, a general household cleaner can be used, but
please be sure to dry the cycle and any attachments before use. In the
interest of safety, do NOT use polish or any lubricant on the saddle,
foam handgrips or pedals.
