Setup and Assembly

The Vaunn Medical Pedal Exerciser comes fully assembled and requires no tools for setup. Simply unfold the unit and ensure it is stable before use.

1. Place the pedal exerciser on a flat, stable surface in front of your chair.
2. If using a wheeled chair, utilize the provided safety strap to secure the exerciser to the chair's base. Loosen the strap to create a wider loop, wrap it around the exerciser and a stable part of your chair's base, then pull to ensure a tight fit.
3. Ensure the exerciser is stable and does not wobble.

2. Adjusting Resistance

The tension knob located on top of the unit allows you to adjust the resistance level. Turn the knob clockwise to increase resistance for a more challenging workout, and counter-clockwise to decrease resistance for an easier session.

3. Proper Usage for Legs and Arms

The exerciser can be used for both leg and arm workouts. For leg exercises, place it on the floor in front of your chair. For arm exercises, place it on a sturdy table.

• Footwear: Avoid wearing thick or heavy footwear such as boots, heels, or platform shoes. Shoes with a width greater than 4.25 inches may not fit the pedal straps. The exerciser will not work on shoe sizes larger than 14.
• Adjust Pedal Straps: Slide your foot onto the pedal so the ball of your foot is directly over the pedal. Adjust the strap to fit your foot or shoe securely.
• Maintain Neutral Posture: Keep your back straight and avoid leaning forward or backward while pedaling.
• Pedaling Technique: Drive through each pedal stroke from the ball of your foot, rather than just using your toes.
