Problems assembling my cross trainer

Modified on Mon, 18 Feb 2019 at 04:32 PM

This is quite a common issue that can easily be resolved.

The right pedal tightens clockwise and the left threaded pedal (threads sloping upward to the left) go to left crank tightens the opposite way to normal, anticlockwise.

If the bolts will not go through the threads maybe damaged please reattempt the following exercise temporarily fitting the bolts from the other side of the crank.


Please note the nuts from the bolts 56 and 60 are nylon coated and will require a spanner to attach them, please ensure these are not mixed up as they have specific left and right hand threads to match the bolts.
