Crank Arm Bolts: Loosen all 8 Bolts slightly before adjusting/ tightening chain.

The E750 Pedal: This patented design allows for usage in both the recumbent position and for sitting/standing upper body workouts.

T-Pin : The T-Pin locks the control arm in any one of 72 different positions throughout its 360 degree range of motion. Pull up the T-pin to allow the control arm to rotate while supporting the control arm with the other hand

L-Pin: Loosen when rotating the control arm and tighten (snug only) once the desired position has been reached.

Inspection plate: Open to check chain tension.

Warning : Do not check chain tension by hand!
