Step 1  
Before proceeding, familiarize yourself with the parts of the Lifecycle 8500 exercise bike and make sure that you  
have received all the items described in the Parts List.  
Step 2  
Remove the STABILIZER BAR (#7) from the  
carton base. Use the empty CONSOLE  
CARTON (A) to raise the rear of the Lifecycle  
bike as shown.  
Remove the two BOLTS (#1) from the bottom  
of the SHIPPING STABILIZER (B), save the  
BOLTS and store the SHIPPING STABILIZER  
with the other shipping containers.  
Step 3  
Use the same two BOLTS that held the  
SHIPPING STABILIZER in place to attach the  
STABILIZER BAR as shown. Make certain  
that the BOLTS are very tight and the  
STABILIZER BAR is flush against the frame.  
Remove the shipping carton.  
Step 4  
Unfold the CONSOLE WIRE HARNESS (C)  
from the HANDLEBAR POST extending from  
the FRAME.  
NOTE: THE COLLAR (#4) SHOULD ALREADY BE IN PLACE INSTALLED ON THE  
HANDLEBAR ASSEMBLY (#5). IF NOT, INSTALL BEFORE PROCEEDING.  
Step 5  
Place the HANDLEBAR ASSEMBLY on the floor in front of the  
FRAME with the two CONNECTORS (10P) next to each other.  
Align the two CONNECTORS with each other and firmly push  
them together until they snap into place.  
Step 6  
Position the HANDLEBAR ASSEMBLY, with the COLLAR (#4)  
in place, so that the HANDLEBAR is facing away from the seat.  
Slide the HANDLEBAR ASSEMBLY into the HANDLEBAR  
POST (D). Be careful not to pinch the wires.  
Align the three holes in  
the HANDLEBAR  
ASSEMBLY with those  
in the HANDLEBAR  
POST and install the  
three HANDLEBAR  
BOLTS (#1).  
NOTE: BE CAREFUL NOT TO DAMAGE THE WIRES WHEN PASSING  
THE BOLTS THROUGH THE HOLES. TIGHTEN THE BOLTS  
SECURELY.  
 
Step 7  
Slide the COLLAR (#4) down until it completely covers the  
HANDLEBAR ASSEMBLY HARDWARE and the HANDLEBAR  
POST (D). Secure the COLLAR by squeezing the sides and  
pushing firmly downward.  
Step 8  
There is a large hole in the rear of the DISPLAY CONSOLE  
(#6) through which you can see a 16-PIN CONNECTOR (16P)  
and a 3-PIN CONNECTOR (3P). These correspond to the  
respective CONNECTORS on the WIRE HARNESS protruding  
from the top of the HANDLEBAR.  
Properly align the locking tabs of the 16-PIN  
CONNECTOR (16P) on the WIRE HARNESS with the 16-  
PIN CONNECTOR on the back of the DISPLAY  
CONSOLE, then snap them together. Next, align the  
locking tabs of the 3-PIN CONNECTOR (3P) on the WIRE  
HARNESS with the 3-PIN on the back of the DISPLAY  
CONSOLE and push them together until they SNAP into  
place.  
Step 9  
Feed the WIRE HARNESS back into the HANDLEBAR  
TUBE. Attach the DISPLAY CONSOLE to the  
HANDLEBAR ASSEMBLY using the four CONSOLE  
SCREWS (#2) and a Phillips screwdriver. Tighten the four  
SCREWS in a crisscross pattern.

Step 10  
To install the 9-VOLT ALKALINE BATTERY (#8) found in the parts bag use a Phillips screwdriver to remove the  
screw from the BATTERY DOOR (E). Gently pull the BATTERY WIRES (F) from the back of the DISPLAY  
CONSOLE and connect them to  
NOTE: ONLY USE AN ALKALINE TYPE BATTERY. USE OF ANY OTHER TYPE  
the 9-VOLT ALKALINE BATTERY.  
BATTERY MAY RESULT IN A MALFUNCTION OR DAMAGE.  
Carefully, tuck the BATTERY  
WIRES back into the DISPLAY  
CONSOLE and set the BATTERY  
in place.  
Re-install the BATTERY DOOR by  
inserting the bottom tab of the  
BATTERY DOOR into the  
corresponding slot in the DISPLAY  
CONSOLE. Push the DOOR into  
place and tighten the screw with a  
Phillips screwdriver.  
CAUTION!: BE CAREFUL NOT TO OVER TIGHTEN THE SCREW  
 
Step 11  
After placing the Lifecycle bike in the intended location for use, check the  
stability of the bike.  
If the bike is not stable, rotate the FOOT (G) in the STABILIZER BAR (#7)  
that appears to be higher until the Lifecycle bike is stable.  
Secure the position of the FOOT by tightening the LOCKNUT with an open-  
end wrench.  
PRE-OPERATION CHECKLIST
