Orbitrek Elite and Orbitrek Elite Magnetic Elliptical Exercise Gliders

Published May 23, 2014 · Recall initiated: July 21, 2009

What's the hazard

The written instructions incorrectly identify the proper location of the spring washer. An incorrectly installed spring washer can put undue stress on bolts, causing them to loosen, which poses a fall hazard to consumers.

What to do

Consumers should stop using the recalled machines until they inspect their unit and confirm that the spring washer is in the correct location. Thane is directly contacting consumers to provide new assembly instructions, which can also be located on the firm's Web site.
