prevent damage to the elliptical trainer, the assembly instructions must be reviewed and corrective

actions should be taken.

E//iptica/Operation&Adjustment

POWER

Your programmable elliptical trainer (E52, E53 & E54HR) is powered by a power supply. The power

supply must be plugged into the power jack, which is located in the front of the machine near the

front foot tube. E51 is powered by two AA batteries. (batteries included)

LEVELING

The elliptical trainer should be level for optimum use. Once you have placed the elliptical trainer

where you intend to use it, raise or lower the adjustable levelers located underneath each guiderail.

Once you have leveled the elliptical trainer, lock the levelers in place by tightening the wing nuts

against the frame.

MOVING

Your elliptical trainer has a pair of transport wheels built into the front of the frame. Carefully pick up

the guide rails and roll the elliptical to the desired position.

CAUTION! Our elliptical trainers are well built and heavy, weighing up to 2001bs.[ Use care and

additional help if necessary when moving.

FOOT POSITIONING

Your elliptical trainer has a variety of foot positions to offer a variance in your workout routine and to

strengthen and train a wider range of leg muscles. Your elliptical trainer also allows you to pedal both

forward and backwards to allow you to focus on other muscle groups such as hamstring and calves.

When using your elliptical trainer, you may notice that your heel raises off of the foot pad. This is a

natural walking or running motion and you should not try to prevent this.

ConsoleFeatures&Display

E51 QUICK START UP

Simply begin exercising. The console will automatically begin counting up and tracking your informa-

tion.

RESET

Press and hold the select button on the console.

MPH/KM CONVERSION

The speed readout on the console automatically defaults to mph when installing the batteries. To

convert the speed readout to kilometers, press and hold the 'Select' button for three seconds. At this

time, the time display should register 0:00. Continue to press the 'Select' button for an additional 2

seconds until the time display registers 0:00 once again. The console should now be set for km. To

switch back to mph, simply remove the batteries in the console.

SELECTING OPTIONAL FEEDBACK

Press the 'SELECT' button on the console to scroll through and view your speed, time, distance,

odometer, calories, and pulse.

STARTING YOUR WORKOUT

Start pedaling, the console will automaticlly begin counting down.

SCAN FUNCTION

During a workout, you can view alternate information such as speed, distance, calories, accumulated

distance (odometer), and heart rate by pressing the 'select' button. To continuously scan through all

alternate readouts, press the 'select' button until both scan and time are displayed. This will auto-

matically allow the console to scan through all alternate readouts.

CHOOSING A RESISTANCE

At any time during your workout you can change your resistance by adjusting the tension knob locat-

ed on the console mast. The resistance levels vary from 1-15; 1 being the easiest, 15 being the most

difficult. Turn the tension knob clockwise to increase resistance.

FINISHING YOUR WORKOUT

Remember to gradually slow down your pace before stopping your workout. The machine will not stop

moving if you stop your feet abruptly. After you have finished your workout, the console will 'beep'

several times to let you know your workout is finished.

TIME

Shown as Minutes:Seconds. View the time remaining or the time elapsed

in your workout.

DISTANCE

Shown as Miles. View the accumulated distance during your workout.

SPEED

Shown as your speed in miles per hour.

ODOMETER

Shows your accumulated distance for all your previous workouts. It will

continue to track this distance until the batteries die or are pulled out.

CALORIES

Shown as total accumulated calories burned during your workout.

PULSE

Shown as Beats Per Minute. Used to monitor your heart rate dur-

ing your workout (displayed when contact is made with both

grips. Pulse can only be viewed while on the pulse screen).
