MAINTENANCE AND TROUBLESHOOTING
HOW TO MAINTAIN THE EXERCISE BIKE

Use a flat screwdriver and remove the Upper Shield
(10) and the right Shield Cover (13).

Inspect and tighten all parts of the exercise bike regularly. Replace any worn parts immediately.

Next, remove the #8 x 32 x 13mm Screw (81) from the
Right Shield (11).

To clean the exercise bike, use a damp cloth and a
small amount of mild detergent. IMPORTANT: To
avoid damage to the console, keep liquids away
from the console and keep the console out of
direct sunlight.

Then, use a socket set to remove the two 1/4" Flange
Nuts (21) from the Right Shield (11).
Remove the two #8 x 1/2" Screws (61) on the right side
of the Electronics Shield (82).

CONSOLE TROUBLESHOOTING
Then, gently move the Right Shield (11) away from the
exercise bike.

If a replacement power adapter is needed, call the
telephone number on the cover of this manual.
IMPORTANT: To avoid damaging the console, use
only a manufacturer-supplied regulated power
adapter.

Locate the Idler Pulley (37). Loosen the 3/8" Jam Nut
(71). Then, tighten the Idler Adjustment Screw (39) until
the Drive Belt (30) is tight.

HOW TO ADJUST THE DRIVE BELT

When the Drive Belt (30) is tight, tighten the 3/8" Jam
Nut (71).

If the pedals slip while you are pedaling, the drive belt
may need to be adjusted.

Reattach the Right Shield (11) with the #8 x 1/2"
Screws (61), the 1/4" Flange Nuts (21), and the #8 x 32
x 13mm Screw (81). Then, reattach the Upper Shield
(10) and the right Shield Cover (13).

See the EXPLODED DRAWING on page 27 to identify the parts mentioned below.
To adjust the Drive Belt (30), first unplug the power
adapter.

EXERCISE GUIDELINES
Aerobic Exercise—If your goal is to strengthen your
cardiovascular system, you must perform aerobic
exercise, which is activity that requires large amounts
of oxygen for prolonged periods of time. For aerobic
exercise, adjust the intensity of your exercise until your
heart rate is near the highest number in your training
zone.

WARNING:

Before beginning this
or any exercise program, consult your physician. This is especially important for persons
over age 35 or persons with pre-existing
health problems.

HOW TO MEASURE YOUR HEART RATE

These guidelines will help you to plan your exercise
program. For detailed exercise information, obtain a
reputable book or consult your physician. Remember,
proper nutrition and adequate rest are essential for
successful results.

To measure your heart
rate, exercise for at least
four minutes. Then, stop
exercising and place
two fingers on your
wrist as shown. Take a
six-second heartbeat
count, and multiply the
result by 10 to find your heart rate. For example, if your
six-second heartbeat count is 14, your heart rate is 140
beats per minute.

EXERCISE INTENSITY
Whether your goal is to burn fat or to strengthen your
cardiovascular system, exercising at the proper intensity is the key to achieving results. You can use your
heart rate as a guide to find the proper intensity level.
The chart below shows recommended heart rates for
fat burning and aerobic exercise.

WORKOUT GUIDELINES
Warming Up—Start with 5 to 10 minutes of stretching and light exercise. A warm-up increases your body
temperature, heart rate, and circulation in preparation
for exercise.
Training Zone Exercise—Exercise for 20 to 30 minutes with your heart rate in your training zone. (During
the first few weeks of your exercise program, do not
keep your heart rate in your training zone for longer
than 20 minutes.) Breathe regularly and deeply as you
exercise; never hold your breath.

To find the proper intensity level, find your age at the
bottom of the chart (ages are rounded off to the nearest ten years). The three numbers listed above your
age define your “training zone.” The lowest number is
the heart rate for fat burning, the middle number is the
heart rate for maximum fat burning, and the highest
number is the heart rate for aerobic exercise.

Cooling Down—Finish with 5 to 10 minutes of stretching. Stretching increases the flexibility of your muscles
and helps to prevent post-exercise problems.
EXERCISE FREQUENCY

Burning Fat—To burn fat effectively, you must exercise at a low intensity level for a sustained period of
time. During the first few minutes of exercise, your
body uses carbohydrate calories for energy. Only after
the first few minutes of exercise does your body begin
to use stored fat calories for energy. If your goal is to
burn fat, adjust the intensity of your exercise until your
heart rate is near the lowest number in your training
zone. For maximum fat burning, exercise with your
heart rate near the middle number in your training
zone.

To maintain or improve your condition, complete three
workouts each week, with at least one day of rest
between workouts. After a few months of regular exercise, you may complete up to five workouts each week,
if desired. Remember, the key to success is to make
exercise a regular and enjoyable part of your everyday
life.
