Set-up:

For the assembly of this item we recommend to use the provided tools. Before starting to assemble please check according to the part-list in this manual, if all parts are complete. Perhaps some parts are already pre-assembled for your convenience. For your safety in some cases lock nuts were used. Maybe it is a little difficult to screw them tightly onto the respective screws, but they will not get loose easily (to ensure a safe connection). If you should loose and fix those lock nuts several times, they will lose this lock mechanism.

In this case you should use new lock nuts of same size.

Step 1: Stabilizers

Attach the front stabilizer (J) & rear stabilizer (I) to the main frame (D) with 2 screws M8x75 (L-8), 2 curved washers 8mm (L-6) and 2 nuts (L-7). Properly fix the stabilizers in order to avoid loosing them during exercise. The rear stabilizer is equipped with adjustable endcaps (I-1) for compensation of uneven floor if necessary. Adjust these endcaps until the unit is standing firmly on the floor.

The front stabilizer is equipped with transportation rolls (J-1), which allow you to move the item easily from one place to another after assembling (please pay attention to protect your floor against scratches and/or abrasion before any transport action).

Step 2: Pedals

Screw in both pedals (D-21/D-22). The right pedal (D-22), which is marked with „R“ needs to be screwed in clockwise direction. The left pedal (D-21) needs to be fixed on the left side by screwing it in anti-clockwise direction. It is important to assemble the correct pedal on the correct side to avoid cross threading and damaging the pedal windings.

Skandika Theseus SF1620 - Step 2: Pedals - 1

Step 3: Seat

Fix the seat (K-7) onto the seat slider (K-6) as per the drawing above. The seat can be adjusted horizontally according to your personal need (arm- and leg-length) by loosing and pulling out the knob (K-1), sliding the seat slider (K-6) to the desired position and fixing the knob (K-1) again properly. Loose the pop pin (D-6) on the main frame and slide the seat post (K) onto the rear stem of the main frame and secure with the pop pin (D-6) in a proper height. The seat should be adjusted up and down, backward and frontward to fit users personal needs. Properly fix the above connections in order to avoid injuries caused by a loose seat.

Skandika Theseus SF1620 - Step 3: Seat - 1

How to use the pop pin (D-6):

The seat support tube can be fixed at various heights by loosing and pulling out the pop pin (D-6), adjusting the support tube to the desired height and then fix the pop pin again properly through one of the drilled holes. Always pay attention to the markings for min. and max. height adjustments on the seat post. The seating height is correct when the knee is slightly bent with the pedal vertically downwards and the foot parallel to the floor.

SET-UP

Step 4: Handlebars post and cables

Remove the pre-mounted handlebars post (C-1) by loosing the screws (C-4 / C-5). Connect both parts of the tension cable (C-6 & D-20) as shown in the small drawing. If present, remove the safety clip before. Now connect the computer cable ends (C-3 & D-2) accordingly between main frame and handlebars post (C-1). Put the handlebars post (C-1) into the main frame [be careful not to squeeze any cables!] and fix it with 4 screws M8x16 (C-5) 4 curved washers (C-4) as shown.

Hint: If the connection between the tension cable ends (C-6 & D-20) is difficult, try to manipulate the tension controller (C-6) located on the handlebar post in that way, that the upper tension cable comes out of the lower end of the post as far as possible. This makes it easier to connect the cable to the respective bottom part.

Step 5: Handlebars

Assemble the handlebars (B) to the handlebars post (C-1) by the handlebars cover (L-1), the bushing (L-2), the T-knob (L-4) and the washers (L-3 & L-5). You may adjust the angular to your individual convenience before fixing the handlebars (B) tightly. Pay attention not to squeeze the handpulse cables. Put the plastic caps onto both ends of the handlebars (if not already premounted). Guide the both handpulse cables (B-6) carefully through the drilling holes of the handlebars post (C-1).

Exercise hints

The following pages will inform you about some general basics about fitness training. In order to reach your personal training aims, it is absolutely necessary to read and keep in mind all the points mentioned in this user manual. In every case, it is necessary to drink enough (e.g. mineral water) during and after exercise. Thank you and we hope you will have lots of success in reaching your aims!

In order to reach perceptible improvements for your body and health, you need to pay attention to the following factors enabling you to determine the necessary training required:

1. Intensity

The intensity of your exercise has to exceed the intensity of your normal daily exertion, without reaching the point of being breathless or exhausted. A suitable coefficient for an effective workout can be your pulse-frequency. It should remain between 70% and 85% of your maximum pulse (how to calculate and find out, please check the pulse-chart in this manual).

During the first weeks the pulse should be kept in the lower range around 70% of your maximum pulse. In the following weeks and months you should continuously increase the intensity to the maximum of 85% of your maximum pulse. The better your endurance gets, the more you have to increase the training intensity. This can be reached through a longer exercise time and/or a higher load/ difficulty.

2. Frequency

Most experts recommend the combination of a healthy nutrition according to your personal exercises and 3 up to 5 workouts per week. An adult needs a minimum of 2 workouts per week to keep his/ her current constitution. 3 or more workouts will increase your personal fitness grade.

3. Organization of your workout session

Each workout session should consist of 3 phases: warm-up, exercise and cool-down. Always start with a warm-up, in which your body's temperature and the oxygen-flow will be increased. For this phase gymnastic exercises with a duration of 5 to 10 minutes are recommended. Some possible stretching exercises are shown on the pages before. After this the exercise phase should begin. The training intensity should be low for the first few minutes and should then be increased to the final intensity for a period of 15 to 30 minutes. In order to support your blood circulation system and to prevent strains and stiffness, you should do a "cool-down phase" after the exercise phase.

In this phase light stretches and gymnastic exercises should be done for about 5 to 10 minutes.

EXERCISE HINTS

4. Motivation

The key to a successful workout is regularity. We recommend, that you organize your training plan in the way, that you arrange a fix place and time for each workout day. You should also prepare mentally for your exercises. Begin your workouts only if you are in a good mood.

If you keep exercising continuously you will improve step by step.

Stretching exercises for the leg-muscles

The stretching exercises on the following page are suitable for warm-up AND cool-down phase. The difference is the way of doing the stretches in these both phases.

In the warm-up phase the stretches should only be held in the extended position for app. 5 to 10 seconds (short stretching) and then the stretch needs to be released again.

This will increase the muscular tension and prepare the muscle for the coming exercise.

In the cool-down phase the stretches should be hold for at least 30 seconds in order to lower the muscular tension after your exercise and beware from stiffness.

In general you should never stretch too hard. If you should feel pain, immediately stop the stretching movement and pay attention that you will stretch only that far, that you will not feel any pain for future exercise.

Skandika Theseus SF1620 - Stretching exercises for the leg-muscles - 1

EXERCISE HINTS

Exercise 1: Quadiceps Stretch

With one hand against a wall for balance, grasp your foot as shown and stretch the front upper muscles of the leg. Raise your heel as close as possible to the buttocks (but only so far, that you do not feel any pain). In the "warm-up" phase please hold the stretched position for 5 up to max. 10 seconds. In the "cool-down" phase you need to hold this stretch for at least 30 to 40 seconds. Please repeat min. 2 times for each leg.

Exercise 2: Inner Thigh Stretch

Seat on the floor and put together both feet-soles. Your knees are pointing outward. Pull your feet as close as possible (without feeling any pain) toward yourself and press down your knees at the same time. Never use your hands to press down the knees! Hold the stretch for app. 5 to 10 seconds (Warm-up) and min. 30 seconds (Cool-down). Repeat twice.

Stretch of gastrocnemius and biceps femoris)

Stand straight and slowly bend forward from your waist, Letting your back and shoulders relax as you stretch toward your toes. Reach down as far as you can and hold for 5 to 10 seconds in warm-up phase and 30 to 40 seconds in cool-down phase. Repeat 2 or 3 times.

Exercise 4: Stretching the back side parts of the legs

Seat on the floor and bend one leg to the inside as you keep the other leg extended. Bend forward and try to touch the foot of the extended leg. More experienced athletes should try to grasp the foot fully and point their toes to the back. This will also stretch the gastrocnemius. Again hold the stretch for 5to 10 seconds in warm-up phase and 30 to 40 seconds in cool-down phase. Repeat twice for each side.
