Maintenance
•  Inspect the Mini Stepper at regular intervals to check to see whether 
there are loose joints and/or parts that have been damaged or worn.
•  Put lubricating oil or grease on hydraulic components of the Mini 
Stepper and any of its moving parts at 3-month intervals. Applying 
lubricating grease may help to minimize noise and to fix uneven or 
rough movements of the pedals, should these occur.
•  Store the Mini Stepper in a cool and dry environment.
•  Don’t clean the surface of the Mini Stepper with organic solvents (i.e. 
gasoline, benzene, etc.) or its surfaces may become damaged.
•  Inspect the unit thoroughly before beginning exercise on it. Make 
sure that there are no issues with the machine such as loose joints, 
loose hydraulic parts, or wobbling pedals.
•  This product is designed only for use by individuals with a weight not 
exceeding 225 lbs.
Using the Mini Stepper
We recommend that you utilize your Mini Stepper on a daily basis, for half 
an hour at a time. We believe you will feel its marvelous cardio-training 
effects after one month of use. The Mini Stepper is excellent whether used 
at home or in the office. For example, even exercising during a break 
at work would produce great results. Rather than feeling fatigued or 
exhausted, you will feel refreshed and energized with the Mini Stepper!
•  Persons with hypertension, obesity, and heart disease should not 
perform strenuous exercise using the Mini Stepper.
•  We do not recommend that you exercise when feeling exhausted or 
tired.
•  We suggest that you keep a healthy daily diet; it is strongly 
encouraged that you consume sufficient amounts of nutrients in each 
category of the food pyramid that is outlined on the U.S. Department 
of Agriculture’s website.
Tension Adjustment
1.  Locate the tension key, which looks like a 
screw with a triangular cap (Figure 1). 
2. Locate the threaded hole on the opposite side 
on the stepper (Figure 2). 
3. Twist the tension key slowly into the threaded 
hole on the backside of the main frame (2). 
4. One side of the stepper will be automatically 
lifted up as the tension key is screwed into the 
main frame (2). As the tension key is fastened 
into the main frame, the amount of force 
required to screw the key in increases (Figure 
3). Hint: Lift up one of the stepper pedals 
manually before inserting the tension key.
5. Once the tension key has been properly 
adjusted, please test out the stepper by 
stepping on each pedal in an alternating 
fashion.
6. If the tension key has been properly installed, 
one pedal will be up while the other will be 
down as you put pressure on either of the 
pedals.
7.  Adjust the tension key according to how firm 
you would prefer the steps to be. 
8. If the tension key is all the way in, the pedals 
have been adjusted to provide the most 
intense workout available. 
9.  If the tension key is loosened so that it is 
barely screwed in, the pedals have been 
adjusted to provide the least demanding 
workout available.
