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 OPERATION OF THE STEPPING MODE SELECTION KNOB AND
SLIDE
1. Move the selection knob to set stepping mode A. Check that the microswitch is released and that
the machine receives its signal. Also check that the selection slide is able to move freely up and
down the bars, and that the pedals are effectively independent.
2. Move the selection knob to set stepping mode B (dependent stepping motion). Check that the
microswitch is pressed and that the machine receives its signal. Also check that the slide is
locked and that the pedals are effectively dependent.
3. Working in stepping mode A, check the state of wear of the slide along the full length of the
bars. Replace if there are evident signs of wear and/or adjust the alignment of the guide bars.
4. Lubricate the guide bars of the slide using general-purpose grease.
10.3.8. 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.
10.3.9. CHECKING THE PRIMARY SHAFT CHAIN
1. Check the state of wear of the 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 with chain spray grease that comes with the service box. After
lubricating, move the pedals up and down a few times.
10.3.10. CHECKING THE WEAR OF THE PULLEYS
1. Check the state of wear of the pulleys. Replace if they show evident signs of wear.
10.3.11. CHECKING THE PLAY OF THE LEVER AND PEDAL GROUP
1. Select stepping mode A (independent pedals) and 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.
10.3.12. 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
