To provide an even level of exertion during exercise, this appliance is equipped with a tensioning control (63), located on the stem of the main body (16), Fig.6. This provides various exertion settings when turned clockwise. To increase pedal resistance turn the tensioning control (63) press up (+) until the exertion level best suits your exercise requirements. To reduce pedal resistance turn the tensioning control (63) press down (-). During exercise the flywheel will get hot due to the braking effect, so when you have finished exercising it is advisable to set the tensioning control (63) to minimum in order to help stop the brake shoe from hardening. Important: This tensioning control (63) is equipped with an emergency braking system which, when applied with force (as shown by the arrow in Fig.6, produces a much sharper braking effect.

Apply anti-rust to the flywheel every time you clean the machine or at least once a month. Apply oil in the contact surface of the flywheel with brake to avoid rattling noises.12

Even though the pedals are already fitted, the right-hand pedal (marked R) screws on in a clockwise direction, whereas the left-hand pedal (marked L) does so in the opposite direction. Maintenance: -The tension of the pedal clip with the pedal should be checked weekly, using a 3mm allen key to adjust the set screw. -Apply a little oil to the contact point of the pedal clip with the pedal to ensure that it locks on.
