XE Series Elliptical
STEP 2: CONSOLE MAST ASSEMBLY
1. Remove the hardware from the hardware pack for step 2. You should have one 3/8 x
2-1/4 bolt (75), one split lock washer (128), two 3/8 x 3/4 bolts (76), two curved washers
(104) and four M5 X 12mm Phillips head screws (84).
2. Locate the console mast (12) and console mast cover (49) and slide the cover onto the
mast as far as it will go. Make sure the cover is facing the correct way.
3. At the top opening of the main body of the elliptical is a wire harness (39). Unravel and
straighten out the wire harness and feed it into the bottom of the console mast tube and
out of the top opening.
4. Install the console mast into the receiving bracket in the top of the main body. NOTE:
there is one bolt already installed in the receiving bracket that will engage with the slot at
the bottom of the console mast. This needs to be tightened at the end along with the three
other console mast bolts.
5. Put the flat washer (104) onto the 2-1/4 bolt (75), and the two curved washers (104) onto
the two 3/4 bolts (76). Install, and hand tighten, the 2-1/4 bolt (75) through the left side of
the receiving tube into the console mast. NOTE: There is a wire running through the tube.
Be careful not to damage or pinch this wire during this procedure. Damage to the
electronic console could result. Install and hand tighten the two 3/4 bolts (76) through the
front of the receiving tube into the console mast.
6. Using the two sided wrench tighten the three bolts, and the fourth bolt which is
pre-installed, firmly. These bolts should be tightened as much as you possibly can. You
can now remove the white Styrofoam sheet from just below the bolts. This sheet is there
to prevent bolts from falling inside the machine during assembly and should be removed
to prevent it from rubbing on moving parts during use of the elliptical. Install the console
mast cover (49) by snapping it in place.
7. Locate the electronic console (32) and the four M5 X 12mm Phillips head screws (84).
8. There will be three electrical wire connectors at the top opening of the console mast. Two
2-pin connectors (hand pulse sensors) (44-3), one 10-pin connector (main wire harness)
(39). Connect these to the mating connectors on the back of the console. The connectors
are keyed to avoid them being plugged in the wrong way. Do not force them. There may
be another connector on the back of the console. This connector is used for a different
product and will remain unused in the XE850.
9. Storing the excess wire back into the console mast, carefully install the console onto the
mounting plate and secure using the four Phillips head screws (84). Make sure you do not
pinch the wires between the back of the console and the mounting plate. Ensure all
excess wire goes down into the tube.
