equipment may result.
• Before beginning this or any exercise program, consult a physician. This is especially important for
persons over the age of 35 or persons with pre-existing health conditions.
• Keep hands away from all moving parts.
• The pulse sensors are not medical devices. Various factors, including the user’s movement, may aect the
accuracy of heart rate readings. The pulse sensors are intended only as exercise aids in determining heart
rate trends in general.
• Do not attempt to use your equipment for any purpose other than for the purpose it is intended.
• Wear proper shoes. High heels, dress shoes, sandals or bare feet are not suitable for use on your
equipment. Quality athletic shoes are recommended to avoid leg fatigue.

WARNING!
• NEVER remove any cover without rst disconnecting AC power
supply.
• If A.C. voltage varies by ten percent (10%) or more, the performance
of your Seated Stepper may be aected. Such conditions are not
covered under your warranty. If you suspect the voltage is low,
contact your local power company or a licensed electrician for
proper testing.
• NEVER expose this Seated Stepper to rain or moisture. This product
is NOT designed for use outdoors, near a pool or spa, or in any
other high humidity environment. Maximum environmental ratings
are 40-120 degrees Fahrenheit, 95% humidity non-condensing (no
water droplets forming on surfaces).
• NEVER operate this Seated Stepper without reading and completely understanding the
results of any operational change you request from the computer.
• Understand that changes in resistance do not occur immediately. Set your desired level on
the computer console and release the adjustment key. The computer will obey the
command gradually.
• NEVER use your Seated Stepper during an electrical storm. Surges may occur in your
household power supply that could damage Seated Stepper components.
• Use caution while participating in other activities while using your Seated Stepper such
as watching television, reading, etc. These distractions may cause you to lose balance,
resulting in serious injury.

The old motto, “no pain, no gain”, is a myth that has been overpowered by the benets of
exercising comfortably. A great deal of this success has been promoted by the use of heart rate
monitors. With the proper use of a heart rate monitor, many people nd that their usual choice of
exercise intensity was either too high or too low and exercise is much more enjoyable by
maintaining their heart rate in the desired benet range.
To determine the benet range in which you wish to train, you must rst determine your predicted
Maximum Heart Rate. This can be accomplished by using the following formula: 220 minus your
age. This will give you the predicted Maximum Heart Rate (MHR) for someone of your age. To de-
termine the eective heart rate range for specic goals you simply calculate a percentage of your
MHR. Your heart rate training zone is 50% to 90% of your maximum heart rate. 60% of your MHR
is the zone that burns fat, while 80% is for strengthening the cardio vascular system. This 60% to
80% is the zone to stay in for maximum benet.
For someone who is 40 years old their
predicted target heart rate zone is calculated:
220 – 40 = 180 (maximum heart rate)
180 x .6 = 108 beats per minute
(60% of maximum)
180 X .8 = 144 beats per minute
(80% of maximum)
So for a 40 year old the training zone would be
108 to 144 beats per minute.
The two most popular reasons for, or goals, of ex-
ercise are cardiovascular tness (training for the
heart and lungs) and weight control. The black
columns on the chart above represent the MHR
for a person whose age is listed at the bottom of each column. The training heart rate, for either
cardiovascular tness or weight loss, is represented by two dierent lines that cut diagonally
through the chart. A denition of the lines’ goal is in the bottom left-hand corner of the chart. If your
goal is cardiovascular tness or if it is weight loss, it can be achieved by training at 80% or 60%,
respectively, of your MHR on a schedule approved by your physician. Consult your physician
before participating in any exercise program.
Heart Rate
22
RSX1500 Seated Stepper
Heart rate is important but listening to your body also has a lot of advantages. There are
more variables involved in how hard you should workout than just heart rate. Your stress
level, physical health, emotional health, temperature, humidity, the time of day, the last
time you ate and what you ate all contribute to the intensity at which you should
workout. If you listen to your body it will tell you all of these things.
The rate of perceived exertion (RPE), also known as the Borg scale, was developed by
Swedish physiologist G.A.V. Borg. This scale rates exercise intensity from 6 to 20
depending upon how you feel or the perception of your eort.
The scale is as follows:
Rating Perception of Eort
6 Minimal
7 Very,very light
8 Very,very light +
9 Very light
10 Very light +
11 Fairly light
12 Comfortable
13 Somewhat hard
14 Somewhat hard +
15 Hard
16 Hard +
17 Very hard
18 Very hard +
19 Very,very hard
20 Maximal
You can get an approximate heart rate level for each rating by simply adding a zero to
each rating. For example a rating of 12 will result in an approximate heart rate of 120
beats per minute. Your RPE will vary depending on the factors discussed earlier. If your
body is strong and rested, you will feel strong and your pace will feel comfortable. When
your body is in this condition, you are able to train harder and the RPE will support this. If
you are feeling tired and sluggish, it is because your body needs a break. In this
condition, your pace will feel dicult. Again, this will show up in your RPE and you
will train at the proper level for that day.
Rate of Perceived Exertion
RSX1500 Seated Stepper

1. Wipe down all areas in the sweat path with a damp cloth after each workout.
2. If a squeak, thump, clicking or rough feeling develops, the main cause is most likely one of
two reasons:
i. The hardware was not suciently tightened during assembly. All bolts that were
installed during assembly need to be tightened as much as possible. It may be
necessary to use a larger wrench than the one provided if you cannot tighten the bolts
suciently. The majority of calls to the service department for noise issues can be
traced to loose hardware or the rear rails being dirty.
ii. Dirt build-up on the rear rails and polyurethane wheels are also a source of noise.
Noise from build-up on the rails can cause a thumping sound that you would swear is
coming from inside the main body of the machine because noise travels and is am-
plied in the tubing of the frame. Clean the rails and wheels with a lint free cloth and
rubbing alcohol. Stubborn build-up can be removed with your thumbnail or a non-
metallic scraper, like the back edge of a plastic knife. After cleaning, apply a small
amount of lubricant on the rails with your ngers or a lint free cloth. You only need a
thin coat of lubrication, wipe o any excess.
3. If squeaks or other noises persist, check that the unit is properly leveled before calling the
service department.
General Maintenance
Your new Seated Stepper is engineered and manufactured to the strictest industry standards
and tolerances. All Seated Stepper trainers, no matter who the manufacturer, have a
multitude of moving linkages and parts. Be aware that even with the tightest mechanical
tolerances there still could be a slight amount of play between some parts. This inherent play
