Stamina Products Elliptical Machines; Provides New Warning and Assembly Instructions
Check whether yours is affected, then follow the instructions below.
What’s wrong
Stamina modified the warning/assembly instructions in the owner's manuals to emphasize that the elliptical pedal shafts must be securely tightened to the cranks. If not securely tightened, the pedal shafts could become loose from the cranks, which could result in serious injury to the user and/or damage to the product.
The Recall Registry rates this serious — Serious injuries are a stated risk.
