The Gazelle Sprinter is an exercise machine designed for cardiovascular fitness and muscle toning. It allows users to perform a variety of gliding exercises that engage both the upper and lower body. The machine is designed for household use and is not intended for children.
The Gazelle Sprinter provides an aerobic and strength conditioning workout. Users stand on foot platforms and move their legs and arms in a gliding motion, which helps to burn calories, firm muscles, and improve cardiovascular endurance. The machine includes hydraulic cylinders that can be engaged to add resistance, allowing users to progress to a more efficient workout as their fitness level improves. A fitness computer tracks various metrics such as speed, distance, time, calories burned, and pulse rate. The device also features a swing arm limiter to prevent over-extended strides, enhancing safety during use.
The manual provides detailed instructions for assembling the Gazelle Sprinter, including attaching covers for the swing arm limiter, assembling the frame and swing arm components, installing the axle tube, handgrips, and hydraulic cylinders. It also covers the installation of the fitness computer and an optional device holder attachment. Users are advised to protect flooring during assembly as some components may be pre-lubricated.
Before use, the unit should be placed on a solid, level, carpeted surface with ample clearance. Beginners are encouraged to practice getting on and off the unit until comfortable and balanced. The "Basic Glide" movement is the starting point, performed by standing upright, holding the front crossbar, and moving feet back and forth in a small, controlled glide.

Users are advised to monitor their heart rate and stay within their Target Heart Rate Zone (50%-80% of maximum heart rate). A chart provides age-adjusted minimum and maximum heart rates. Methods for determining heart rate include taking a manual pulse or using an electronic heart rate monitor.
