Owner’s Manual
WARNING! Failure to properly secure the steering
column could result in the unexpected collapsing of the
steering column during riding. This would likely cause
the rider to lose control and suer serious injury or death
from a resulting fall.
10. Test the grips and bar ends (if any) on the
handlebars. They should be in good condition
and securely fastened so that they cannot be rotated.
Improperly secured grips and/or bar ends can detach
from the handlebars during riding and cause the rider
to lose control and fall.
11. Ensure that each end of the handlebar is capped
with a smooth surface. A handlebar end can have
sharp edges that, if exposed, can cut a rider or
exacerbate injuries sustained during a fall.
12. For C-series and model 8S and 11R bikes,
actuate the gear shifter, shifting up and down to ensure
the gear shifter is shifting smoothly in both directions.
For the ElliptiGO® Arc, shifting without pedaling is not
possible so do not perform this step.
13. For C-Series and model 8S and 11R bikes, inspect
the guide track systems. Inspect each load wheel to
ensure that there are no cracks or chips and it operates
properly. Spin each one individually so you can see
and feel the entire circumference of the wheel.
Check each guide track to make sure that it is free from
debris.
WARNING! A cracked load wheel can come apart while
riding, causing the drive arm to get jammed and resulting
in a fall. IF YOU FIND A CRACK IN YOUR LOAD WHEEL
DO NOT RIDE YOUR ElliptiGO UNTIL THE LOAD WHEEL
HAS BEEN REPLACED. Contact service@elliptigo.com
for replacement load wheels and instructions for how to
replace them.
14. Ensure that drive train is functioning properly by
using your hand to grab the outside edge of the
closest foot platform and then rotate it backwards
several complete rotations.
CAUTION! NEVER GRAB THE REAR OF THE DRIVE
ARM as your hand can get caught between the drive arm
and the cranks and suer an injury
15. Visually inspect each drive arm and swing arm
(if any) carefully to ensure each has no visible signs
of damage, especially cracking. Make sure you inspect
all sides of each arm. If a drive arm or swing arm
has visible signs of damage or cracking,
DO NOT RIDE the bike. Instead, contact our service
department at service@elliptigo.com for support.
WARNING! Some ElliptiGO bikes are equipped with
drive arms made from a composite material commonly
known as carbon fiber. Although it is a strong and light
material, when it fails, it tends to fail catastrophically
and with little or no warning. As a result, it is extremely
important to inspect the drive arms thoroughly before
riding to ensure that there are no signs of cracking. If you
