Can this machine be used in reverse?

Yes, you can pedal in reverse, and it will still add miles/count your pedaling. (At times, it does seem to stop counting if you switch from standing with the elliptical to sitting and bicycling.) I have thoroughly enjoyed this smaller elliptical with the added seat compared to much more expensive brands without the seat feature.

I looked at mine and there is no way to reverse the motor. It spins on way and one way only. Why would you need to reverse it anyways?

You cAre easily use I without the switch. And to wire it for reverse, either put in a fuse tap in the fuse box, simple cut it in to your break like (carefully).

No reverse. Would be nice but don't let that stop you from buying. It's the best boat out there for the money

Yes, you can pedal in reverse. However I have not done that with this trainer because I believe the instructions warns that the pedals might come off if you pedal in reverse. Before I got this trainer I had a recumbent bike that I pedaled in reverse and one pedal was always coming off and interrupting my workout. That was annoying so I don't pedal in reverse on this one and I don't have the piece that keeps the pedal on while pedaling in reverse.

Yes it is reversible but you might want to look at 12v hoists instead. They are rated for loads in both directions.

No, there is no "reverse", automatic or otherwise, but why would you ever need it to go in reverse? It spins like it should spin.

no, you can't reverse it. it is permanemtly on the right side. probably with glue.

Yes. You can pedal this in reverse. I am a home health physical therapist and use this all of the time for most of my patients.

Yes it does reverse. Not sure of the exact speed, similar to the forward driving speed.

Yes, it can be reversed (mine is reversed right now), but you have to do it on the fan. It cannot be done on the remote.

I would not risk using this item in reverse! Even stopping it quickly can be hazardous. I use mine with a 1" 8TPI insert without any problem. Nice tool.

Yes you can go reverse but it doesn't have a lot of resistance if you go backwards

Yes it can. The instruction booklet comes with instructions on how to do that. I truly love this machine.

Yes and a nice feature of the inverter is you do not have to stop the lathe for reverse. If it is running flip the switch, it will slow to a halt and then start up in the reverse direction. Nice for sanding.

Unfortunately no, you still have to use the switch on the fan housing to go from forward to reverse. I found this to be a small inconvenience.

Only way that I know of to reverse the direction is to swap the leads to the motor. If you open the case that way, the warranty be invalid. Exchange it; when you get the properly-wired one you will find it a very useful tool (I have actually felled small trees with mine).
