the pivot axle is functioning properly, is located in the

to the drive arm.
22. Ensure that you have a set of spare parts including
at least one replacement tube, tools, and pump and
they are securely and safely fastened to you or your
bike.
23. Finally, do a thorough once over of the entire
machine, including checking each screw, bolt, fastener,
and quick release system to make sure nothing is loose,
damaged or appears like it will not function properly.
To make sure that the many fasteners on your elliptical
cycle are correctly tightened, refer to the section on
Torque Requirements for Screws and Fasteners below.
WARNING! It is very important that your screws,
fasteners and quick release levers are properly tightened.
Not applying enough force increases the chance that
they will become loose and fail to perform their function
properly, increasing the risk of a failure. Over tightening
them can damage the fastener, elevating the risk of a
failure. The failure of a fastener or improper tensioning
on a quick release may lead to a component failure that
causes the rider to lose control and suer a fall.
Ensuring that your screws and fasteners are tightened
correctly requires the skillful use of a torque wrench and
we strongly recommend having a professional bicycle
mechanic tighten them. If you would prefer to tighten the
screws and fasteners yourself, you must use a calibrated
torque wrench and ensure you reach the correct torque as
specified the section on Torque Requirements for Screws
and Fasteners below.
From time to time, it is possible that you will need to adjust
screws or fasteners during a ride. In these rare situations,
you must exercise the utmost of care and we recommend
having a professional bike mechanic check the fasteners
you adjusted as soon as you can.
