Fasten Nuts and Bolts
To prevent mounted frame parts from not being correctly aligned,
it is advisable to complete the first subsequent steps before
fully tightening nuts and bolts. This provides space to reposition
previously mounted parts, allowing the overall assembly to proceed
more smoothly. Therefore it advisable to follow up on the below
instructions.
Securely tighten all
nuts and bolts after all
components have been
assembled in current and
previous steps.
DO TIGHTEN ALL BOLTS AND
NUTS IN THIS STEP AND BOLTS
AND NUTS OF FORMER STEPS
Do not fully tighten all
nuts and bolts used in this
step.
Hand tight is enough.

Packaging disposal
Government guidelines ask that we reduce the amount of waste
material disposed of in land fill sites. We therefore ask that you
dispose of all packaging waste responsibly at public recycling centres.
End of life disposal
We at Tunturi hope you enjoy many years of enjoyable use from
your fitness trainer. However, a Time will come when your fitness
trainer will come to the end of its useful life. Under 'European WEEE
Legislation you are responsible for the appropriate disposal of your
fitness trainer to a recognised public collection facility.
Workouts
The workout must be suitably light, but of long duration. Aerobic
exercise is based on improving the body's maximum oxygen uptake,
which in turn improves endurance and fitness. You should perspire,
but you should not get out of breath during the workout.
To reach and maintain a basic fitness level, exercise at least three
times a week, 30 minutes at a time. Increase the number of exercise
sessions to improve your fitness level. It is worthwhile to combine
regular exercise with a healthy diet. A person committed to dieting
should exercise daily, at first 30 minutes or less at a time, gradually
increasing the daily workout time to one hour. Start your workout at
low speed and low resistance to prevent the cardiovascular system
from being subjected to excessive strain.
As the fitness level improves, speed and resistance can be increased
gradually. The efficiency of your exercise can be measured by
monitoring your heart rate and your pulse rate.
Exercise Instructions
Using your fitness trainer will provide you with several benefits, it will
improve your physical fitness, tone muscle and in conjunction with a
calorie controlled diet help you lose weight.
The warming up phase
This stage helps get the blood flowing around the body and the
muscles working properly. It will also reduce the risk of cramp and
muscle injury. It is advisable to do a few stretching exercises as shown
below. Each stretch should be held for approximately 30 seconds, do
not force or jerk your muscles into a stretch - if it hurts, STOP
The exercise phase
This is the stage where you put the effort in. After regular use, the
muscles in your legs will become more flexible. Work to your but it is
very important to maintain a steady tempo throughout. The rate of
work should be sufficient to raise your heart beat into the target zone
shown on the graph below.

This stage should last for a minimum of 12 minutes though most
people start at about 15-20 minutes
The cool down phase
This stage is to let your Cardiovascular System and muscles wind
down. This is a repeat of the warm up exercise e.g. reduce your
tempo, continue for approximately 5 minutes. The stretching
exercises should now be repeated, again remembering not to force
or jerk your muscles into the stretch.
As you get fitter you may need to train longer and harder. It is
advisable to train at least three times a week, and if possible space
your workouts evenly throughout the week.
Muscle toning
To tone muscle while on your fitness trainer you will need to have the
resistance set quite high. This will put more strain on our leg muscles
and may mean you cannot train for as long as you would like. If you
are also trying to improve your fitness you need to alter your training
program. You should train as normal during the warm up and cool
down phases, but towards the end of the exercise phase you should
increase resistance making your legs work harder. You will have to
reduce your speed to keep your heart rate in the target zone.
Weight loss
The important factor here is the amount of effort you put in.
The harder and longer you work the more calories you will burn.
Effectively this is the same as if you were training to improve your
fitness, the difference is the goal.
Heart rate
Pulse rate measurement (hand pulse sensors)
The pulse rate is measured by sensors in the handlebars when the
user is touching both sensors at the same time. Accurate pulse
measurement requires that the skin is slightly moist and constantly
touching the hand pulse sensors. If the skin is too dry or too moist,
the pulse rate measurement will become less accurate.
NOTE
• Do not use the hand pulse sensors in combination with a heart
rate chest belt.
• If you set a heart rate limit for your workout, an alarm will sound
when it is exceeded.
Heart rate measurement (heart rate chest belt)
NOTE
• A chest strap does not come standard with this trainer. When you
like to use a wireless chest strap you need to purchase this as an
accessory.
