MAINTENANCE
1. BI-WEEKLY MAINTENANCE:
The indoor cycle should not be used if the
emergency brake system is not working
properly. While sitting on the saddle and
pedalling, test the brake by pushing down
the brake knob. The flywheel should come to
a quick and complete stop.
2. MONTHLY MAINTENANCE:
BELT DRIVEN BIKE
IMPORTANT: A loose belt as well as an over-
tightened belt will cause damage to the belt
and drive system.
CHECKING BELT TENSION:
To check for a loose belt, sit on the saddle,
place your feet on the pedals, move the
pedals until the crank arms are horizontal.
Next, push down the emergency brake
handle and hold it. Then, stand on the pedals
and rock forward and backward. There
should be no more than 1/8th inch (2–3 mm)
of play in the belt. If there is too much play in
the belt, this indicates that the belt
is too loose.
CORRECTING BELT TENSION:
To correct a loose belt: To adjust the belt, pull
off the right and the left maintenance covers
(A).Loosen the axle nut (B) on both ends of
the fly-wheel axle two full turns. Loosen the
outer adjustment nut (C) facing the head of
the allen bolt on each side of the flywheel.
Then, turn both (right and left sides) of the
inner adjustment nuts (D) on the inside of
the flywheel bracket 1/4 of a turn at a time
(upward on the R side and downward on L
side) until the belt is properly adjusted. Make
sure to turn both adjustment screws exactly
the same amount to avoid misalignment
of the flywheel.
