2. Use the present tooling for assembling.
3. Before assembling please check whether all needed parts are available (at the above of this instruction sheet you will find an explosion drawing with all single parts (marked with numbers) which this item consists of.

1. Attach the Front Stabilizer (pt.15) to the Main Frame (pt.16) using two sets of Ø8 Flat Washer (pt.5), M8 Domed Nut (pt.6) and M8*42 Carriage Bolt (pt.3).

Attach the Rear Stabilizer (pt.4) to the Main Frame (pt.16) using two sets of Ø8 Flat Washer (pt.5), M8 Domed Nut (pt.6) and M8*42 Carriage Bolt (pt.3).

1. Slide the Vertical Seat Post (pt.10) into the seat post housing on the Main Frame (pt.16). You will have to slacken the knurled section of the Knob (pt.7) and pull the knob back and then select the desired height. Release the knob and retighten the knurled portion. Then slide the Seat Post (pt.12) into the Vertical Seat Post (pt.10), use the knob (pt.7) to tighten.
2. Finally, the Seat (pt.13) fixed on the Seat Post (pt.12) as shown, and tighten the nuts under the seat.

ATTENTION:

Connected with the computer line, to Gap (A1) corresponding to the convex point (A2) to insert link.

1. Slide the Handlebar Post (pt.17) into the handlebar post housing on the main frame. You will have to slacken the knurled section of the Knob (pt.7) and pull the knob back and then select the desired height. Release the knob and retighten the knurled portion.
2. Then the Handlebar (pt.18) and the supporting plate (pt.64) fixed on the Handlebar Post (pt.17), use four Bolts (pt.20) and four Spring Washers (pt.19) to tighten. Finally, the Computer (pt.65) inserted on the supporting plate.

ATTENTION: YOU SHOULD FIX THE HANDLEBAR TIGHTLY.

1. The Pedals (pt.1L & pt.1R) are marked “L” and “R” – Left and Right. Connect them to their appropriate crank arms. The right crank arm is on the right – hand side of the cycle as you sit on it.

Important Note: that the Right pedal should be threaded on clockwise and the Left pedal anticlockwise.

1. Adjusting the Tension

Increasing or decreasing the tension allows you to add variety to your workout sessions by adjusting the resistance level of the bike. To increase tension and increase resistance (requiring more strength to pedal), turn the Tension Control Knob (pt.25) to the right.

To decrease tension and decrease resistance (requiring less strength to pedla), turn the Tension Control Knob (pt.25) to the left.

2. The Emergency Brake Function

Use this safety feature in any situation where you would need to get off the bike and/or stop the bike’s flywheel.

To use the Emergency Brake function in any situation you would need it in, firmly press downon the Emergency Brake (pt.24).

To adjust the handlebar height, slacken the spring knob and secondary knob and pull both knobs back. Slide the handlebar post along the housing on the main frame to the desired height and, with the holes aligned correctly, tighten the spring adjusting knob and then the secondary knob.

VII. EXERCISE GUIDE

Using your SPINNING BIKE provides you with several benefits, it will improve your physical fitness, tone muscle and in conjunction with calorie controlled diet help you lose weight.

THE WARM UP PHASE

This stage helps get the blood flowing around the body and the muscles working properly. It will also reduce the risk of cramp and muscle injury. It is advisable to do a few stretching exercises as shown below. Each stretch should be held for approximately 30 seconds, do not force or jerk your muscles into a stretch – if it hurts, STOP.

THE EXERCISE PHASE

This is the stage where you put the effort in. After regular use , the muscles in your legs will become Stronger. Work to your but it is very important to maintain a steady tempo throughout. The rate of work should be sufficient to raise your heart beat into the target zone shown on the graph below.

  This stage should last for a minimum of 12 minutes for most people.

MUSCLE TONING

To tone muscle while on your SPINNING BIKE you will need to have the resistance set quite high. This will put more strain on our leg muscles and may mean you cannot train for as long as you would like. If you are also trying to improve your fitness you need to alter your training program. You should train as normal during the warm up and cool down phases, but towards the end of the exercise phase you should increase resistance, making your legs work harden than normal. You may have to reduce your speed to keep your heart rate in the target zone.

WEIGHT LOSS

The important factor here is the amount of effort you put in. The harder and longer you work the more calories you will burn. Effectively this is the same as if you were training to improve your fitness, the difference is the goal.

USE

The tension control knob allows you to alter the resistance of the pedals. A high resistance makes it more difficult to pedal, a low resistance makes it easier. For the best results set the tension while the bike is in use.

X. HAND PULSE TECHNOLOGY

This product comes equipped with hand pulse sensors which are used to pick up tiny EKG/ECG signals that run through the body when your heart beats. These electrical EKG/ECG signals are very small and that they must be amplified 1000 times to make the signal useful for the computer to display your pulse.

To ensure proper operation:

• The user must maintain good, consistent contact on all four sensors.
• The users skin cannot be too dry or too wet.

Other factors that could affect the reading:

• Change of grip on the sensors (during slow pace walking and up to running).
• Tightening of hand muscles will produce small electrical signals.
• Static electricity charges from the air or from walking on the treadmill.

EKG/ECG Sensors may filter through actual EKG/ECG signals and “Noise” factors that may affect the reading. This will cause the pulse reading to be delayed and will take longer to update the display as the heart rate changes. Too much noise will create an incorrect reading. Medical conditions or having no electrical signal in the hands are other factors that may affect pulse readings as well.

These are limitations of hand pulse technology and even the most expensive systems (which can cost upwards of $3,000) used in hospitals have the same problems. The difference is that a patient in a hospital is not running on a treadmill. Hand pulse technology works well on stationary exercise machines like bikes and even elliptical cross trainers but are not perfect on a treadmill. We offer treadmills with a wireless heart rate receiver which may be a more accurate option.

To test if your hand pulse sensors are working up to specification, hold them while standing on the sidestep rails, not walking, and see if the reading is more in line with what you would expect. This will eliminate the movement and static electricity factors. If your hands are dry, then wet them slightly (saliva works as a great conductor if this doesn’t bother you).
