Drive Chain Lubrication
The drive chain will require lubrication once a month, or after every 100 hours of use. The chain should be lubricated with a light
oil (preferably a lubricant that comes with a spray hose that fits in front of the can) and a dry clean towel.
1. Remove the chain guard covers to expose the drive chain.
2. Using a bristle-type brush, remove any corrosion or debris from the drive chain.
CAUTION: DO NOT rotate the flywheel or crank arm when lubricating. DO NOT lubricate the drive chain while flywheel is
in motion. NEVER expose hands into any part of a moving drive chain. DO NOT wrap a towel around the chain while in
motion.
3. With one hand, carefully spray small sections of the drive chain with lubricant; with the other hand, carefully hold a clean towel
underneath the area being sprayed to absorb any excess.
4. Reinstall the chain guard covers.
6-MONTH MAINTENANCE
The flywheel on the Spinner® Elite must be lubricated with spray grease specified as Lithium high-temperature / highspeed
(Grade NLGI #2) every six months. This will prolong bearing life and help prevent serious damage that may lead to personal
injury if ignored.
IMPORTANT: Failure to perform this procedure will void your warranty.
1. Turn the flywheel until the grease slot is visible.
2. Insert the spray tube into the grease slot, then apply the grease (one squirt) into
the slot.
NOTE: When applying the grease, take care to avoid spraying grease on the
clutch plates of the flywheel. Spray ONLY in the grease slot and around the
nut in the center of the hub. DO NOT over grease.
3. Remove the spray tube from the grease slot, and rotate the flywheel for one or
Spinner Elite
two revolutions.
4. Repeat steps 1 through 3 a total of five times so the grease is evenly distributed
inside the hub.
5. Clean any excess grease or overspray from the outside of the flywheel.
6. Test cycle operation for smoothness. Test the Smart Release™ mechanism by pedaling fast, then stopping abruptly. The flywheel
should coast to a stop within five to seven revolutions.
ADJUSTMENTS
CHAIN ADJUSTMENT
The chain on your group cycle has been factory set and lubricated. It should not
require adjustment initially. Over time, however, you may need to adjust the tension.
CAUTION: Improper chain adjustment will cause premature wear and may void
the warranty.
1. Using a 3mm Allen Wrench, remove the three screws supporting the plastic
chain shrouding.

2. With an adjustable wrench, loosen the two nuts on either side of the flywheel (Diagram A).
