BEFORE YO U BEGIN
CONGRATULATIONS! on choosing your bike. You’ve taken an important step in developing and
sustaining an exercise program! Your bike is a tremendously effective tool for achieving your personal
fitness goals. Regular use of your bike can improve the quality of your life in so many ways.
HERE ARE JUST A FEW OF THE HEALTH BENEFITS OF EXERCISE:
• Weight Loss
• A Healthier Heart
• Improved Muscle Tone
• Increased Daily Energy Levels
The key to reaping these benefits is to develop an exercise habit. Your new
bike will help you eliminate obstacles that prevent you from exercising.
Inclement weather and darkness won't interfere with your workout when you
use your bike in the comfort of your home. This guide provides you with basic
information for using and enjoying your new machine.
LOCATION OF THE BIKE
Place the bike on a level surface. There should be 6 feet of clearance behind
the bike, 3 feet on each side and one foot in front for the power cord (See
diagram to the right). Do not place the bike in any area that will block any
vent or air openings. The bike should not be located in a garage, covered
patio, near water or outdoors.

POWER
Your bike is powered by a power supply (720B ONLY) or 2 AA Batteries (710B ONLY). The power must be
plugged into the power jack, which is located in the front of the 720B near the STABILIZER TUBE. Some bikes
also have an on/off switch located on the back of the console.
Do not operate the bike if the power cord or plug is damaged.
If the bike appears to not be working properly, do not use the bike.
MOVING
Your bike has a pair of transport wheels built into
the FRONT STABILIZER TUBE. To move, first remove
the power supply and firmly grasp the CONSOLE
MAST, carefully tilt and roll.
Our bikes are well built and heavy, weighing up to 200 lbs! Use care and
additional help if necessary when moving.
ADJUSTING THE SEAT
To adjust the seat turn the handle into its middle position making the handle feel loose. Then, slide the seat
to a position that puts you in a comfortable pedaling range (one that keeps a slight bend in your knee while
your legs are in the extended position). Lock the mechanism by rotating it clockwise or counter clockwise until
handle tightens.
NOTE: It is recommended that you do not sit on the seat while adjusting its position.
