Pre-assembly checklist

Assembly instructions

Some parts and screws are pre-installed on the trainer. You may need to remove them and install them again.

Step 1

Installing the supports

• Take the parts out of the box and remove all protective packaging from them.
• Using the wrench (A), unscrew the pre-installed bolt (52) from the front stabilizer (6).
• Align the front stabilizer (6) with the handle post (2), then put the bolt (52) back and tighten it with the wrench (A).

Step 2

Unfolding the main frame

• Hold the main frame tube (1) with your right hand and press it down. Then press the cylinder (120) with your foot. Keep holding the frame.
• After it is released, the main frame will begin to unfold. Carefully lower it until the support pad (57) touches the floor.

Note: during this process, make sure that people and pets are at a safe distance to avoid accidents.

Step 3

Locking the connecting rods

• When the trainer stands steadily, lift the red rod latch (118) by hand to disconnect the connecting rod (4) from the main frame tube (1).
• Press the connecting rod (4) down toward the center of the bushing (110) until you hear a click. This means that the rod is securely locked in place, as shown in figure A.
• Repeat the same procedure on the opposite side for the connecting rod (5).

Note: after installation, for safety, lift both connecting rods (4) and (5) to make sure that they are securely locked in the bushings (110) and are centered.

Step 4

Locking the main frame

• Carefully holding the handle post (2) with your left hand, take the L-shaped knob (27) with your right hand and turn it clockwise until fully tightened. This will lock the main frame in place, as shown in figure A.

Note: make sure that the L-shaped knob is tightened securely. Otherwise, the frame may be unstable or wobble during use.

Step 5

Installing the pedals

• Install the left pedal (106) on the left connecting rod (4) using the bolts (108), flat washers (109) and nuts (77). Tighten securely with the wrench (B).
• Install the right pedal (107) on the right connecting rod (5) using the bolts (108), flat washers (109) and nuts (77). Tighten securely with the wrench (B).

Step 6

Installing the handles and the pendulum rod covers

• Install the left handle (11) on the left pendulum rod (7) using the bolts (60), arc-shaped washers (61) and nuts (77). Tighten securely with the wrench (B).
• Install the right handle (12) on the right pendulum rod (8) using the bolts (60), arc-shaped washers (61) and nuts (77). Tighten with the wrench (B).
• Install the front cover of the left pendulum rod L (72) and the rear cover of the left pendulum rod L (73) on the left pendulum rod (7), then press them together until they lock.
• Do the same on the right side: install the front cover of the right pendulum rod R (74) and the rear cover of the right pendulum rod R (75) on the right pendulum rod (8), then press them together.

Step 7

Installing the center handle

• Using the wrench (A), unscrew the pre-installed bolt (52) from the center handle (3).
• Carefully pass the auxiliary wire from the main wire (15) through the center handle (3), as shown in figure A.
• Insert the center handle (3) into the handle post (2) and secure it with the bolt (52). Tighten with the wrench (A).

Attention! Make sure not to pinch or damage the cables during installation. Before tightening the bolts, make sure that all wires are routed correctly and do not get into places where they could be pinched.

Step 8

Installing the console and connecting the power

• Using the wrench (B), unscrew the pre-installed screws (14) from the console (13). Set them aside for later installation.
• Connect the console wire (13b) to the pulse sensor wire on the handles (17), as shown in figure A.

During the workout, the user's heart rate depends on the resistance level and speed. The heart rate control program is designed to keep the heart rate within the set value.

If the computer detects that the current heart rate is above the set value, it will automatically reduce the resistance level, or the user can slow down the pace of the workout. If the current heart rate is below the set value, the computer will increase the resistance, and the user can speed up.

E: 1 heart rate control program — PULSE PRO: P15

The target heart rate value will start flashing. Press the UP / DOWN buttons to set the target heart rate. Press ENTER to confirm the value. Press START / STOP to start the workout.

During the workout, the user's heart rate depends on the resistance level and speed. The heart rate control program is designed to keep the heart rate within the set value.

Workout Tips and Recommendations

Warm-up and Cool-down

A successful exercise program consists of three parts: warm-up, cardio training and cool-down.

Warm-up is a very important part of a workout. A warm-up must be done before every workout. It helps warm up the body, stretch the muscles and allows the body to adapt to more intense exercise.

Repeating the warm-up at the end of the exercise can help relieve muscle soreness.

We suggest doing the appropriate warm-up and cool-down exercises according to the following scheme:

Head rolls

First pull your head toward your right shoulder, stretch your neck and turn your head once clockwise and once counterclockwise; pull your head toward your left shoulder and make one turn counterclockwise. Repeat.

Shoulder lifts

Raise your left shoulder and make 5 backward rotations; then raise your right shoulder and make 5 backward rotations, alternating sides.

Side stretch

Raise your arms above your head, then grasp your right wrist with your left hand and reach upward until you feel your right arm fully stretched. Hold for 5 seconds before switching to the other arm.

Quadriceps stretch

Holding onto a wall with your right hand for balance, pull your left foot back with your left hand, bringing the heel as close to your buttock as possible. Hold for 15 seconds, then repeat with the other leg.

Inner thigh stretch

Sitting on the floor, put the soles of your feet together, clasp them with both hands and pull them in as close to your body as possible. Slowly press down on both heels and hold this position for 15 seconds.

Toe touch

Slowly bend forward, relax your back and shoulders and reach for your toes. Bend as low as you can and hold the position for up to 15 seconds.

Hamstring stretch

Sit down, straighten your right leg, bend your left leg, grab your left ankle with your left hand and push it inward so that your left foot is as close to your torso as possible and the sole of the foot is against the inside of your right thigh. Then press forward with your body and reach both arms forward to touch your toes; the more pressure, the better. Hold this position for 15 seconds and switch to the left leg.

Calf stretch

Lean against a wall with both hands, tilt your body at a 45-degree angle to the floor and alternately move your left and right legs back, as if walking.
