This document provides essential instructions for the assembly, safe operation, and maintenance of the 012-S Mini Stepper. Key requirements include using the equipment on a flat, solid surface with at least 120 cm (4 ft) of free space around it. The maximum weight capacity is 100 kg (220 lbs). Users should consult a physician before starting any exercise program.
Assembly Instructions
- Remove the Main Frame (No. 10) from the box.
- Lift one Pedal (No. 5) and ensure the Cable (No. 22) is correctly seated in the slot of the Pulley (No. 9).

- Connect the 2 Exercise Bands (No. 20) to the Exercise Band Buckles (No. 19) at the front of the pedals.
Operation and Adjustments
Stepping Height: Turn the Adjustment Knob (No. 11) clockwise to increase the stepping height, or counter-clockwise to decrease it.


Exercise Bands: To adjust the rope length, push one side of the rope down and pull the bottom (to lengthen) or push the rope upward from the bottom and pull the top (to shorten). Ensure the hook nut is securely tightened after attaching the bands to the pedal hooks.
Exercise Meter
The meter is auto-powered and activates when exercise begins or the MODE button is pressed. It turns off automatically after 4-5 minutes of inactivity. Use the MODE button to cycle through functions: Time, Reps/Min, Count, Calories, and Scan. To reset, hold the MODE button for three seconds or remove the battery. The meter uses one LR44 1.5V battery.

Maintenance and Care
- Cleaning: Wipe with a soft, clean, damp cloth after each use. Avoid excessive moisture on the computer display.
- Lubrication: If the stepper screeches, loosen the screw on the U-shaped iron and the cable, lubricate both, then re-tighten.
- Inspection: Check all bolts and pedals weekly for proper tightness.
- Storage: Store in a clean, dry, indoor environment away from children.
