Operation and Safety Instructions
Safety Information -To reduce the risk of electric shock: always unplug the treadmill from the electrical
outlet immediately after using and before cleaning.
Always unplug the treadmill before cleaning or removing the motor cover.
Improper connection of the grounding connector can result in risk of electric shock. Check with a qualified
electrician/service technician if you are in doubt as to whether the treadmill is properly grounded. Do not
modify the plug provided with the treadmill. If the plug will not fit in the outlet, have a proper electrical outlet
installed by a qualified electrician.
To reduce the risk of burns, fire, electric shock or injury to persons:
 An appliance should never be left alone or unattended when plugged in. Unplug from outlet when not in use
and before putting on or taking off parts.
 Close supervision is necessary when the treadmill is in use or near children or persons with disabilities.
 Use the treadmill only for its intended use as described in this manual. Do not use attachments not
recommended by Landice.
 Never operate treadmill if it has a damaged cord or plug, if it is not working properly, or if it‘s damaged. Call
your dealer or certified service provider immediately for examination and repair.
 Keep the power cord away from heated surfaces. Be sure the cord has plenty of slack and not pinched under the
treadmill when it elevates and de-elevates.
 Never operate the treadmill with the motor cover air openings blocked. Keep the air openings free of lint, hair,
dust, or debris.
 Do not drop or insert objects into any opening on the treadmill. Be sure no objects are near or beneath the
treadbelt when you are using the treadmill.
 Do not use treadmill outdoors.
 Do not operate treadmill where aerosol (spray) products are used, or where oxygen being administered.
 To disconnect, press STOP & TURN THE POWER SWITCH OFF, then remove plug from outlet.

Electrical Requirements
Please Note: All M1 Treadmills only comes as a 110v unit
Landice requires that a dedicated circuit needs to be wire for each piece of Landice equipment.
For optimal performance, DO NOT plug equipment into an AFCI or GFI circuit breaker/outlet.
Adapters or extension cords is not recommended.
Treadmills marked 120 VAC recommended for use with a grounding plug in a nominal 120-volt
circuit. Ensure the treadmill power cord connected to an outlet having the same phase configuration
as the power cord plug.
Treadmills marked 200-250 VAC recommended for use on a circuit having a nominal rating
greater than 120V, and are factory-equipped with a specific power cord and plug to permit
connection to a proper electrical circuit. Ensure the treadmill power cord connected to an outlet
having the same configuration as the plug. Landice recommends, not using adapters with 200–250
VAC treadmills.
If any treadmill needs configuration for use on a different type of electrical circuit, we will require
that an authorized service provider make the proper configurations to meet the electrical
requirements.
For 220v & 110v units using 3-phase voltage:
• Each treadmill must have its own circuit breaker and be run on the same phase; same power
leg.
• If 220v power is required, all treadmills must run on the same two phases (power legs) and on
their own circuit breakers.
110v Electrical Requirements
Plug NEMA Style 5-20P
Receptacle NEMA Style 5-20R
220v Electrical Requirements
Plug NEMA Style 6-15P
Receptacle NEMA Style 6-15R

Maintenance Checklist
Weekly Maintenance:
 Wipe down display. Use mild solution of non-phosphate cleaner on damp microfiber
cloth.
 Wipe down handrails and traction strips with soft cotton cloth and mild soap and
water. Cloth should be damp not wet.
 Vacuum or wipe down the deck area between treadbelt and frame, including the
visible part of the rear roller.
 Clean treadbelt walking surface: Vacuum treadbelt to remove loose dirt. If vacuuming
does not remove dirt, Landice recommends the use of a medium stiff nylon bristle
brush to remove dirt trapped in treadbelt surface. A damp (not wet!) sponge can be
used to finish the cleaning process.
Monthly Maintenance:
 Take off motor cover and vacuum. Be careful not to touch any of the circuit boards.
 Move the treadmill and vacuum around the treadmill area.
 Examine the deck and treadbelt for wear and replace if necessary.
 Check condition of line cord for any cuts, gouges, or broken prongs on the plug ends.
Every Six Months:
 Check all locking levers not to be broken and for tightness, especially the upright and bed
area.
 You can also perform an amperage check to see if the treadbelt is dragging excessively and
thus drawing excessive current as follows.

Static Electricity: What to Look For
Static electricity can be generated from many sources. While a shock may occur occasionally
while using the machine and is normal, it can lead to issues with the treadmill’s components.
Here are the most commonly found sources of Static Electricity:
 Treadmill placed on carpet - When you use your treadmill directly on a carpet, it is
far more prone to static build up. Instead, install a rubber treadmill mat (LANDICE
#73062) underneath the machine. This will help reduce static buildup.
 Dry Climate & Lack of Humidity - Whether it’s the winter months, or you live in a
dry location, static buildup is more likely to occur low humidity environments. You
can compensate for this by using a humidifier in your treadmill’s location.
 Dehydration and Dry Skin- Your own level of dryness can lead to static buildup. If
you are dehydrated while working out, dry skin will increase risk of static buildup.
You can combat this by drinking more water, and using moisturizer as needed on dry
areas of the skin.
 Your workout clothing and shoes - The type of material used in your workout
clothes can make a world of difference when it comes to combating static buildup.
Synthetic materials like Polyester, Spandex, and Acrylic fiber will build up static
electricity much faster. Instead, use natural materials like Cotton in your workout
clothing.
Likewise, if your shoes are worn down, you will dramatically increase the
chance of static buildup. Check the tread of your shoe, and replace them if they are
worn down.
 Worn out parts - The condition of the treadbelt, deck and motor brushes can all
increase the risk of static buildup. Do monthly maintenance such as vacuuming
under the motor cover. Use Simple Green to wipe down the deck, hand rails and
display. Check the treadbelt tension, and look for cracks or fraying. A Landice
Authorized service provider can help to do a full diagnostic on your treadmill for a
fee.
 Using Surge Protectors, Extension Cords - Landice requires plugging directly into a
dedicated outlet. Using a surge protector or extension cord increases resistance on
the flow of power, meaning increased stress on electrical components and premature
failure, as well as the increased risk of static shock.

Measuring AC & DC Amperage
AC Amperage must be perform on the BROWN WIRE of the linecord.
DC Amperage must be perform on the RED WIRE from the drive motor.
While straddling the belt, start the treadmill and bring the speed up to 3.0 mph at 0%
elevation. Once the treadmill is up to speed start walking on the treadmill while looking at the
voltmeter. The voltmeter will start giving you an amperage reading. The average highest
reading possible equals your amperage reading. The more friction, the hotter the treadbelt
will become which will increase your amperage reading.
AC Amperage DC Amperage Treadbelt Condition
2.0-4.0 AC Amps 4.5-6.0 DC Amps Good
5.0-7.0 AC Amps 7.0-9.0 DC Amps Normal
7.0-10.0 AC Amps 9.0-12.0 DC Amps Replace

Using Your Multimeter
A Multimeter is a device used to measure a variety of electrical functions. The
multimeter best suited to diagnosing a treadmill will be able to measure AC
and DC voltage, as well as Ohms and electrical continuity.
Make sure the batteries in your
Multimeter are fresh before you begin!
Vac – Alternating Current reverses polarity
from plus (+) to minus (-). For the M1
Treadmill, you can test Vac coming from the
outlet into the unit.
Vdc – Direct Current only flows in one
direction, and provides a constant voltage over
time.
Ohms – The electrical resistance of a
component or conductor measured in ohms.
You can check the condition of a drive motor
ohm.
Continuity – Electrical Continuity is the
continuous, uninterrupted flow of electricity.
You will use continuity to check fuses, wire
harnesses, power cord and pins for any
interruption. You can also use it to perform a
membrane bypass test (where applicable).
