Assembly Instructions

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 re-
placement 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 tight-
ness 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 ap-
plies especially to the securing bolts for saddle and handelbars.
■ 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!
■ Any interference with parts of the product that are not de-
scribed within the manual may cause damage, or en-
danger the person using this machine. Extensive repairs
must only be carried out by KETTLER service staff or qua-
lified personnel trained by KETTLER.
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 en-
sure 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. 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, chil-
dren are allowed to use the equipment, ensure that they are in-
structed in its proper use and supervised accordingly.
■ The exercise cycle complies with the DIN EN 957 - 1/5, class
B. It is therefore unsuitable for therapeutic use.
■ On principle, the equipment does not require any special
maintenance. All bearings are pre-lubricated (further lubrica-
tion is not required) and require little maintenance.
■ A slight production of noise at the bearing of the centrifugal
mass is due to the construction and has no negative effect
upon operation. Possibly occurring noise during reverse pe-
dalling result from engineering and are absolutely safe.
■ Do not use corrosive or abrasive materials to clean the equip-
ment. Ensure that such materials are not allowed to pollute the
environment.
■ The exercise cycle has a brake system, which require little
maintenance and does not require any adjusting work.
■ To operate correctly, the pulse function requires a minimum vol-
tage of 2,7 volts.
■ The hometrainer is dependent of revolutions per minute.
■ Please ensure that liquids or perspiration never enter the ma-
chine 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 per-
son. If in doubt call upon the help of a second person, if possible
technically talented.
■ Please note that there is always a danger of injury when work-
ing 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 dan-
ger, for example don’t leave any tools lying around. Always dis-
pose packaging 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 in-
structed. 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 re-
sistance is felt, then use spanner to finally tighten nuts
completely against resistance (locking device). Then
check that all screw connections have been tightened firmly. At-
tention: once locknuts have been unscrewed they no longer
function correctly (the locking device is destroyed), and must be
replaced.
■ To pull off the pedal arms remove cap and screw (A). Grip the ped-
al 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 prelimi-
nary assembly work (e.g. addition of tubing plugs).
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. 7969-600 / spare-part no. 67000170/ 2
pieces / inspection no......
Important: spare part prices do not include fastening material; if fastening
material (bolts, nuts, washers etc.) is required, this should be clearly stated
on the order by adding the words „with fastening material“.
