POWER
If your unit is powered by a power supply, the power must be plugged into the power
jack, which is located in the front of the machine near the stabilizer tube. Some units
have a power switch, located next to the power jack. Make sure it is in the ON position.
Unplug cord when not in use.
MOUNTING THE ELLIPTICAL AND ASCENT TRAINER
1. Stand behind the unit.
2. While holding both of the rear arm rests for support, place your foot on the lowest
foot pedal and push pedal down into the lowest position before stepping onto foot
pedal.
3. Wait until the unit finds its resting place and then place your other foot on the
opposite pedal.
PROPER USAGE
Your unit offers a variety of foot positions. Moving your foot to the forward most position
of the foot pad increases your step height, which will create a feel similar to a step
machine. Placing your foot toward the back of the foot pad decreases your step height
and creates more of a gliding feel, similar to a smooth walk or run. Always make sure
your entire foot is secured on the foot pad.
Your unit also allows you to pedal both forward and backwards to offer a variation to
your workout and to focus on other major leg muscle groups such as your hamstrings
and calves.
To determine proper workout position, stand on the pedal with your foot on the center
of the pedal. Keep your knees slightly bent at all times. You should be able to pedal
without locking your knees or shifting your weight from side to side.
WARNING
WORKOUT OPTIONS
LOWER BODY WORKOUT

POWER INCLINE OPERATION
The Ascent Trainers offer powered incline to add variety to your workouts. The incline can be adjusted using the buttons on
the console.
