Assembly Instructions
GB
For Your Safety:
■ Exercise should be used only for its intended purpose, i.e. for
physical exercise by adult persons.
■ Any other use of the equipment is prohibited and may be dan-
gerous. The manufacturer cannot be held liable for damage or
injury caused by improper use of the equipment.
■ Exercise has been designed in accordance with the latest stan-
dards of safety. Any features which may have been a possible
cause of injury have been avoided or made as safe as possible.
■ Incorrect repairs and structural modifications (e.g. removal or
replacement of original parts) may endanger the safety of the user.
■ Damaged components may endanger your safety or reduce the
lifetime of the equipment. For this reason, worn or damaged parts
should be replaced immediately and the equipment taken out of
use until this has been done. Use only original KETTLER spare parts.
■ In case of enquiry, please contact your KETTLER dealer.
■ If the equipment is in regular use, check all its components thor-
oughly every 1 -2 months. Pay particular attention to the tightness
of bolts and nuts.This applies especially to the securing bolts for
saddle and handelbars. The brake tension should also be
checked at regular intervals and adjusted as necessary.This
applies especially to the securing bolts for saddle and han-
delbars.
■ Instruct persons using the equipment (in particular children) on
possible sources of danger during exercising.
■ Before beginning your program of exercise, consult your doctor
to ensure that you are fit enough to use the equipment. Base your
program of exercise on the advice given by your doctor. Incorrect
or excessive exercise may damage your health.
Before assembling or using the exercise cycle , please read the following instructions carefully. They contain important
information for use and maintenance of the equipment as well as for your personal safety. Keep these instructions in a
safe place for maintenance purposes or for ordering spare parts.
Handling the equipment
■ Before using the equipment for exercise, check carefully to
ensure that it has been correctly assembled.
■ It is not recommended to use or store the apparatus in a damp
room as this may cause it to rust. The friction surface of the fly-
wheel is especially sensitive to the formation of rust. Should this
occur (e.g. after a prolonged period of disuse) the rust should
be removed using sandpaper or steel wool. Do not use grease
or oil! The brake strap should also be replaced. Please ensure
that no part of the machine comes in contact with liquids (drinks,
perspiration etc.). This may cause corrosion.
■ The Hometrainer is designed for use by adults and children
should not be allowed to play with it. Children at play behave
unpredictably and dangerous situations may occur for which the
manufacturer cannot be held liable. If, in spite of this, children
are allowed to use the equipment, ensure that they are instructed
in its proper use and supervised accordingly.
■ The exercise cycle complies with the DIN EN 957 - 1/5, class
C. It is therefore unsuitable for therapeutic use.
■ On principle, the equipment does not require any special main-
tenance. All bearings are pre-lubricated (further lubrication is
not required) and require little maintenance. The brake tension
should also be checked at regular intervals
and adjusted as necessary.
■ Do not use corrosive or abrasive materials to clean the equipment.
Ensure that such materials are not allowed to pollute the envi-
ronment.
■ To operate correctly, the pulse function requires a minimum
voltage of 2,7 volts.
■ The hometrainer is dependent of revolutions per minute.
■ Please ensure that liquids or perspiration never enter the machine
or the electronics.
■ Before use, always check all screws and plug-in connections as
well as respective safety devices fit correctly.
Instructions for Assembly
■ Ensure that you have received all the parts required (see check
list) and that they are undamaged. Should you have any cause
for complaint, please contact your KETTLER dealer.
■ Before assembling the equipment, study the drawings carefully
and carry out the operations in the order shown by the diagrams.
The correct sequence is given in capital letters.
■ The equipment must be assembled with due care by an adult
person. If in doubt call upon the help of a second person, if pos-
sible technically talented.
■ Please note that there is always a danger of injury when
working with tools or doing manual work. Therefore please be
careful when assembling this machine.
■ Ensure that your working area is free of possible sources of danger, for
example don’t leave any tools lying around. Always dispose pack-
aging material in such a way that it may not cause any danger. There
is always a risk of suffocation if children play with plastic bags!
■ The fastening material required for each assembly step is shown
in the diagram inset. Use the fastening material exactly as
instructed. The required tools are supplied with the equipment.
■ Bolt all the parts together loosely at first, and check that they have
been assembled correctly. Tighten the locknuts by hand until resis-
tance is felt, then use spanner to finally tighten nuts com-
pletely against resistance (locking device). Then check
that all screw connections have been tightened firmly. Attention:
once locknuts have been unscrewed they no longer function cor-
rectly (the locking device is destroyed), and must be replaced.
■ To pull off the pedal arms remove cap and screw (A). Grip the pedal
arm tightly, and screw in an M12 bolt (not supplied) into the
thread (B). After a few turns you may take off the pedal arm (C).
■ For technical reasons, we reserve the right to carry out prelim-
inary assembly work (e.g. addition of tubing plugs).
■ Please keep original packaging of this article, so that it may be
used for transport at a later date, if necessary.
List of spare parts
When ordering spare parts, always state the full article number, spare-
part number, the quantity required and the inspection number stamped
on the back.
Example order: Art. no. 7939 - 970 / spare-part no. 10100030/ 2 pieces

Important: spare part prices do not include fastening material; if fas-
tening material (bolts, nuts, washers etc.) is required, this should be clearly
stated on the order by adding the words „with fastening material“.
