Step 1
Snap the VENT COVER off the MOTOR COVER (A) by pulling
outward. Carefully untie and uncoil the WIRE HARNESS (B)
tucked into the front center cutout of the MOTOR COVER. Pull
gently on the WIRE HARNESS to remove any slack.
Step 2
Lay the MONOCOLUMN (#1) on the STRIDING BELT and feed
the WIRE HARNESS CONNECTOR (C) into the access hole
provided near the bottom front side of the MONOCOLUMN. The
WIRE HARNESS should exit through the top on the user side
(toward the STRIDING BELT) of the metal bar welded across the
top center of the MONOCOLUMN.
Step 3
Slide the MONOCOLUMN (#1) into position through the U-
BRACKET (D) in the center of the MOTOR COVER (A). The large
access hole on the front side of the MONOCOLUMN should be
placed down and toward the front of the machine when properly
installed. Secure the MONOCOLUMN in position by lightly
tightening the nuts on the U-BRACKET. Insert the Phillips SCREW (#2) through the frame and into the bottom
hole of the MONOCOLUMN. Tighten the SCREW until finger-tight only.
Step 4
Insert the ends of the VERTICAL HANDRAILS (#6) into
the matching ends of the foam padded HANDLEBAR (#3).
Align the screw holes and secure each vertical post in
place with a loosely installed SCREW (#4). Slide each foot
of the completed HANDLEBAR/HANDRAIL ASSEMBLY
into the MOUNTING BRACKETS (E) located on either
side of the treadmill. Install the two 2” SCREWS (#7) and
WASHERS/COVERS (#12) and the two 2 1/2” SCREWS
(#8) and WASHERS/COVERS (#12) until finger-tight only
to hold the HANDLEBAR/HANDRAIL ASSEMBLY in
position with the MONOCOLUMN (#1).
NOTE: THE WASHER / COVERS (#12) ARE CURVED TO
MATCH THE VERTICAL HANDRAILS (#6). BE SURE TO
ALIGN THE WASHER / COVERS PROPERLY BEFORE
TIGHTENING THE SCREWS (#7 & #8).
NOTE: LA RONDELLE / COUVERTURES (# 12) SONT
COURBÉES POUR APPARIER LES BALUSTRADES
VERTICALES (# 6). SOYEZ SÛR D'ALIGNER LA
RONDELLE / COUVERTURES CORRECTEMENT AVANT
DE SERRER LES VIS (#7 & #8).
Step 5
Secure the HANDLEBAR (#3) tightly to top of the MONOCOLUMN (#1)
with two hex key SCREWS (#5).
Step 6
Tighten the U-BRACKET (D) nuts and all previously installed SCREWS
to secure all installations to this point.
Step 7
Position the LEFT and RIGHT ENDCAPS (#9 & #10) and secure them
with three each of the six SCREWS (#15) provided.

Step 8
Press the VENT COVER (14) into position on the
MOTOR COVER (A). Install the two SCREWS
(#19) into the corresponding holes on the sides of
the VENT COVER and the notch of the MOTOR
COVER and secure in place.
Step 9
Plug the 12-PIN CONNECTOR (12P) of the WIRE HARNESS (B) protruding from the top of the MONOCOLUMN
(#1) into the corresponding PC BOARD CONNECTOR located on the back of the DISPLAY CONSOLE (#16). Once
connected, feed the excess cable carefully back into the top of the MONOCOLUMN and lower the DISPLAY
CONSOLE into position on the MONOCOLUMN. Secure the DISPLAY CONSOLE to the MONOCOLUMN with the
two SCREWS (#17).
Step 10
Place the magnet side of the STOP KEY (#11) in the
space provided on the face of the DISPLAY CONSOLE
(#16). Check to ensure that the ON/OFF switch, located
next to the POWER CORD point of entry, is in the OFF
[O] position. Plug the treadmill POWER CORD into a
properly grounded outlet and change the switch setting to
the ON [I] position.
Step 11
The treadmill STRIDING BELT is properly centered at the
factory. However, the LEVELING LEGS (F) may need to be
adjusted once the unit is placed in its intended location.
Step 12
Check to insure that the STRIDING BELT is
centered and tensioned properly according to the
instructions in the Operation Manual before running.
Failure to do so could cause damage to the
STRIDING BELT.

After placing the unit in its intended location for use, begin a Life Fitness workout program (see Operating
Instructions & Program Descriptions) but DO NOT run. It is important to ensure that the STRIDING BELT remains
centered during operation. If the BELT drifts to the RIGHT, see Figure A.. If the BELT drifts to the LEFT, see
Figure B.
NOTE: IT IS EXTREMELY IMPORTANT THAT THE TREADMILL LEVELING LEGS BE CORRECTLY
ADJUSTED FOR PROPER OPERATION. AN UNBALANCED UNIT MAY CAUSE STRIDING BELT
MISALIGNMENT AND POSSIBLY DAMAGE THE TREADMILL.
NOTE: IL EST EXTRÊMEMENT IMPORTANT QUE LE TAPIS ROULANT NIVELANT DES JAMBES SOIT
CORRECTEMENT AJUSTÉ À L'CEXÉCUTION APPROPRIÉE. UNE UNITÉ NON ÉQUILIBRÉE PEUT CAUSER
LA DÉVIATION D'ALIGNEMENT DE CEINTURE DE PROGRÈS ET PROBABLEMENT
ENDOMMAGER LE TAPIS ROULANT.
