Setup
Read the entire manual before setting up the unit.
Choosing and Preparing Site
Before assembling the unit, verify the chosen site meets the following criteria:
• Area is well lit and well ventilated.
• Surface is structurally sound and properly leveled.
• Free area for access to unit and emergency dismount. Minimum clearance is 23.6 inches (0.6 meters).
• Adjacent units may share the free area.
Free Area - R Series Lower Body
23.6”, 0.6m
1
Free Area - R Series Total Body
23.6”, 0.6m
1
It is the responsibility of the facility owner/owner of the equipment to ensure that there is appropriate clearance
around each machine to allow for safe use and passage.
In compliance with the ADA (American Disabilities Act) there must be clear floor space of at least 30 by 48 inches
and be served by an accessible route for at least one of each type of exercise equipment. If the clear space is
enclosed on three sides (e.g., by walls or the equipment itself), the clear space must be 36 by 48 inches.
All other machines must have a clear floor space of 23" for all access point on the machine.
The dimensions stated in the assembly instructions of this manual include the maximum foot print (in use)
dimensions.
Minimum clearance of 12” (30 cm) between units for proper wireless heart rate signal operation.
Electrical Power Requirements (Applicable for Units Using External Power Supply)
• Units that are only equipped with the 50L console are self powered.
• Units with the 50L console can be used with an optional 12 VDC external power supply. Use of an attachable
TV requires a 12 VDC external power supply.
• Units with the 70T console are required to use a 24 VDC external power supply.
WARNING: Use only the supplied power brick and line cord. Do not use any modification to connect to a
2-prong outlet. Product must be connected to a properly rated 3-prong outlet.

NOTE: Do not modify the plug provided with this product. If the plug does not fit into an available electrical
outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician.
NOTE: Make sure the power brick cord is securely connectedto thebase unit.A looseconnection mayresult
in the unit not receiving external power.
Install External Power Supply
Two different options exist for the external power supply. The 50L console, a self-powered unit compatible with
a 12 VDC optional power supply for enhanced charging features and the 70T, which requires a 24 VDC power
supply.
1. Plug in the power to the external power connector on the front end of the unit.
2. Tighten the connector to the unit until its securely in place.
3. Plug the cord into an AC outlet.

NOTE: If the console does not light up, contact Customer Support Service. Use only the power supply
provided in order to ensure against unsafe operation.
NOTE: CSAFE connections must be made at the console only.
CAUTION: Units with the50L console should ONLYuse the 12 VDCpower supply. The 70Tconsole REQUIRES
the 24 VDC power supply. Using a 24 VDC power supply will damage the console.
CAUTION: Connectors should easily fit into the receptacles. Forcing a connection may lead to damage to
the barrel connector and/or receptacle and may void product warranty. If the power supply barrel doesn’t
fit easily into the receptacle then the wrong power supply is being used.
Page 11 of 47
Check for Console Power
The 50L console is powered by a 12V 7AH battery. The 70T console is plug in only using the 24 VDC power supply.
Check the battery by pressing the Go / Green Arrow button. The console should beep and light up. If a prompt
doesn’t appear, mount the unit and begin pedaling. The console should light up and programming a workout
should be possible. Pedal for 10 - 20 minutes at 50 rpm or faster during a workout for optimum battery charging.
The pedal action during workouts keeps the battery charged. Optional external power supply can be used. If the
unit is externally powered, battery maintenance is automatic and pedaling is not required. Use only the power
supply provided by Cybex to insure against unsafe operation.
Cable TV Hook Up
The console can receive both analog and digital signals. CYBEX is not responsible for the installation of CATV
service or components required for the delivery of CATV service. An external TV signal input via a 75-ohm coaxial
cable must be present before TV setup can occur.
Note to the CATV Installer: This reminder is provided to call the CATV system installer’s attention to Article 820-40
of the NEC that provides guidelines for proper grounding and, in particular, specifies that the cable ground shall
be connected to the grounding system of the building as close to the point of cable entry as practical.

Mounting and Dismounting the Arc Trainer
To mount, step one foot at a time atop each of the foot plates. If necessary, stabilize your body by grasping the
frame, the stationary handles (if available), or the moving handles (if available). Be aware that the pedals will begin
to moveas soon as you putweight on them. Thepedals are large enoughto accommodate different foot positions,
however the most common position is with the user’s toes forward underneath the plastic toe cup.
Page 13 of 47
To begin exercise, push down and back into the pedals. Since the Arc Trainer pedals travel back and forth along
an arc (not in a circle or ellipse), there is no ‘forward’ or ‘backward’ motion.
To dismount, slowly bring the pedals to a stop. Grasp the stationary handles or part of the frame to assist in
stepping off the foot plate, back and away from the machine. When stepping back, ensure that you are beyond
and behind the path of motion of the foot plates. Never stand inside of the machine’s footprint, unless standing
atop the foot plates.
How to Use the Arc Trainer
Once standingon the foot plates, begin exercise by pushing downand back on thefoot plates. The user hasseveral
options for hand placement, not all of which are available on each Arc Trainer variant: 1. Stationary handles along
the side of the frame, 2. Stationary handles around the console, 3. Moving handles, or 4. Not holding anything.
These different postures have an influence on the muscles that are utilized and thus, the calories burned during
the exercise. Always be aware of the position of the moving handles, especially if you are not actively grasping
them. These handles move in synchrony with the pedals, so pull on the handle as you are pushing down and back
with your foot. Speed on the Arc Trainer is measured in cadence as steps per minute. The most common cadences
during use are 100-160 steps per minute, although users performing high intensity intervals may routinely exceed
this range.
