ŸPlace the treadmill on a level surface with enough clearance behind it, 2M is needed, and on both
sides of the treadmill is 0.6M.
ŸThe optimal place to stand on the treadmill is at about 1/3 of the length of the running belt to the
front of the treadmill. You might step on the motor cover if you stand too close to the front and
crush the cover, or be tripped by the running belt. If you stand too close to the back of the running
deck, you might not catch the speed and fall off.
ŸThe maximum weight allowed on this machine is 130kg. Warranty will not be honored when this
advice is not carefully followed.
This machine is not intended for use by persons (including children) with reduced physical,
sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have been
given supervision or instruction concerning use of the machine by a person responsible for their
safety. Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the machine.
3.MAINTENANCE:
A. Regular Maintenance:
a Clean and lubricate the running deck after each 20-hour of use or on a monthly basis, which
ever comes first (SEE TREADMILL LUBRICATION INSTRUCTIONS). Clean both sides of the
running belt daily will prevent dirt from getting underneath the running belt.
b. To keep the dust off, clean the treadmill both on the surface and beneath it; Place a mat under
the treadmill to keep the dust off and to protect the floor.
c. Keep the liquid from the monitor or the running belt.
d. Contact your dealer for any service assistance.
3

B. Cleaning and Lubrication:
a. Use a clean towel, slide it between the running belt and deck of the treadmill at the motor
end, so that one end of the towel hangs over each side of the machine.
b. Hold both ends of the towel, pull it back and forth under the belt, and move toward the
other end of the running belt; make sure the belt stay in place.
c. When you reach the rear roller, hold the belt down and move the towel toward the front of
the treadmill, repeat these steps a few more time. This will clean both the belt and
treadmill deck.
d. Take the lubricant and apply to the treadmill bed.
e. Walk on the treadmill for 2 minutes at about 5 km/h in order spread the lubricant evenly.
f. Belt slippage may occurred for a short time. If it persists, adjust the running belt tension
according to the owner's manual (adjust belt tension). Do not over-tighten, as this will
decrease the life of the belt. Always make sure the belt is not over-tightened.
g. If you are not certain of any procedure or lack of correct tools, please contact your dealer.

under the running belt, which is 10 cm from sides of the belt and 30 cm from the near end
of motor cover). Apply on both left and right sides of the belt.
b. Walk on the treadmill for 2 minutes at about 5 km/h in order spread the lubricant evenly.

8. Running Belt Adjustment:
A. Running Belt Tension Adjustment
Factors affecting the running belt alignment:
a. Whether the treadmill is on a level surface?
b. Since your foot impacts the belt with uneven forces, the belt
may lose the alignment over time; the treadmill should be kept
running for a while after the workout, so that the belt may
adjust itself back to its original alignment;
c. Whether the belt tension is well maintained?
Note: the running belt tension should be adjusted only by adjusting the rear roller bolts of the
treadmill. Do not adjust the front rollers bolts on your own; please consult your dealer for
assistance if the front roller bolts need to be adjusted.
How to adjust the running belt tension:
a. Pay attention to the belt tension so that the treadmill can be operated smoothly on a level
surface and to prevent the damage to the parts.
b. When you feel the belt is slipping under your feet, it means you may need to adjust its tension.
c. To increase the tension, use the L type wrench to turn both rear roller adjustment bolts
clockwise by 1 turn.
d. To decrease the tension, use the L type wrench to turn both rear roller adjustment bolts
counter-clockwise by 1 turn.
If the above steps cannot improve the tension and prevent slippage, the motor drive belt may
need to be adjusted, please consult your dealer for assistance.
Caution: Do not over tighten the belt, otherwise not only the running belt may be worn out easily,
the roller bearing can also be damaged over time due to the extra tension pressure.
B. Running Belt Alignment
The running belt should be kept at the center position to ensure a smooth operation and to
prevent any worn out. When the running belt is off-centered, the belt needs to be manually
adjusted and aligned.
How to Align the Belt:
A. Keep the treadmill running at the speed of 4-6 km/h, when the belt
has shifted to the left:
a. Use the L type wrench to turn the left rear roller bolt clockwise ½ of a
turn;
b. If more adjustment is needed, turn the right rear roller bolt counter-
clockwise ½ of a turn;
c. If more adjustment is still needed, repeat the above two steps, but turn
only at ¼ of a turn.
B. Keep the treadmill running at the speed of 4-6 km/h, when the belt
has shifted to the right:
a. Use the L type wrench to turn the right rear roller bolt clockwise ½ of a
turn;
b. If more adjustment is needed, turn the left rear roller bolt counter-
clockwise ½ of a turn;
c. If more adjustment is still needed, repeat the above two steps, but turn
only at ¼ of a turn.

Speed
Incline
C. Incline Adjustment
To Increase the Incline: Press to increase the incline.
To Decrease the Incline: Press to decrease the incline.
Note: The incline device needs to be off for 20 minutes when it is used for over 5 minutes to keep
it from being over-heated. When the incline is over-heated, it will cut off the power supply
automatically until the temperature is back to normal.
9. Safety Key and Pulse Sensor:
a. Place the safety key (412) to the key pad top cover (403) on the monitor to start the treadmill.
b. Remove the safety key (412) when the treadmill is not in use to avoid any danger.
c. When using the pulse equipment and hold the pulse sensor, stay calm and quiet. Do not run
and measure pulse at the same time. Otherwise, the figure will not be accurate due to hands
moved.
d. Suggest to measure your heart beat before and after exercise to make a comparison. Be sure
to stand on the side rail and hold the pulse sensor for five (5) seconds, the icon “ “ will show
on the screen and monitor will show the heart beat/min in real time.
Caution: While using hand pulse, the hands should be without too much moisture, so dry your
hands before doing exercise. Otherwise, it will affect the accuracy of heart rate. Also, while using
pulse, user should leave running belt and stand at safe area.
The pulse sensor is not a medical device, and the estimated heart rate is for your reference only,
please use a medical device for accurate reading of your heart rate.
Attention : Please do warm-up exercise (refer to later chapter) before using treadmill in order
prevent injury.
10.Speed & incline adjustment and hand pulse:
The function of hand pulse combines with speed/incline adjustment function:
a. Change Speed: Use the buttons on the right to adjust the
speed, press or to change the workout speed; you can
easily change your speed during the workout;
b. Change Incline: Use the buttons on the left to change the
incline of the treadmill, press or to change the incline;
you can easily change your incline during the workout;
