10.3.6. CHECKING THE WEAR OF THE RUBBER HANDLEBAR COVERS
1. Check the state of wear of the rubber covering on the 2 side handlebars and on the center
handlebar. Replace if they show evident signs of wear.
10.3.7. CHECKING THE ALTERNATOR BELT
1. Check the state of wear of the belt, turning it by hand using the alternator flywheel. In particular,
check the edges and the inner part of the belt. Replace if it shows evident signs of wear.
2. Check the tension of the belt. Adjust the tension if necessary.
10.3.8. CHECKING THE CHAINS
1. Check the state of wear of the pedal chains and primary shaft chain, in particular checking for
any links that are jammed and/or have excessive play. Replace if it shows evident signs of wear.
2. Check the tension of the primary shaft chain. Adjust the tension if necessary.
3. Lubricate the pedal chains and the primary shaft chain with chain spray grease that comes with
the service box. After lubricating, move the pedals up and down a few times.
10.3.9. CHECKING THE WEAR OF THE PULLEYS
1. Check the state of wear of the pulleys. Replace if they show evident signs of wear.
10.3.10. CHECKING THE PLAY OF THE LEVER AND PEDAL GROUP
1. Choose a manual training session with difficulty level 1. Step onto the pedals and start using the
machine, moving the weight of your body backward and forward, to the right and left. Check
whether the lever and pedal group follows these shifts in body weight with an excessive amount
of play. If this is the case, replace the lever or pedal group.
10.3.11. CHECKING THE OPERATION OF THE CARDIO RECEIVER
1. Using a separate heart rate monitor, put on the transmitter strap and check that the machine and
the separate monitor both measure the same heart rate, and that when the strap is disconnected
the machine does not receive any signal.
2. Using a heart rate frequency simulator, check that the machine detects the variations in the heart
rate.
3. If the machine is equipped with a coded receiver (PCD technology), put on the coded strap and
wait for the machine to display the measured heart rate. At this point, using a heart rate
frequency simulator, check that the machine does not detect its presence and doesn’t alter the
previously measured heart rate.
10.3.12. CHECKING THE OPERATION OF THE HAND SENSOR RECEIVER
1. Using a separate heart rate meter, check that, when the sensors are gripped, both the machine
and the separate meter read out the same frequency, and that when the sensors are released the
machine does not detect any signal.
10.3.13. CHECKING THE RESISTANCE SETTING
1. Select the manual training program and check that, when the difficulty level is changed, the
resistance of the machine varies accordingly.
