Before You Ride
LEVELERS: Place the cycle on a level area, if at all possible. If the cycle needs leveling, turn the levelers clockwise or counterclockwise until the base is stable and does not rock.
ADJUSTMENT KNOBS: All four adjustment levers function the same way. Turn the knob clockwise to tighten and counterclockwise to loosen.
SEAT: The pitch of the saddle can be adjusted to accommodate all users. Loosen the horizontal bolt under the seat to adjust the pitch, then retighten.

Resistance and Belt Tension Adjustments
RESISTANCE ADJUSTMENT: Resistance can be adjusted easily at any time while riding to change the intensity of workout. Turn the knob clockwise (+) to increase resistance. Turn the knob counterclockwise (-) to decrease resistance.
BELT TENSION ADJUSTMENT: The belt tension had been set before shipping. It should not need to be adjusted when first using. However, you may need to make the minor tension adjustment over time.
Note: Make sure you adjust both side equally, either tighten or loosen the belt tension so that the flywheel keep in alignment with the frame.
