OPERATION AND ADJUSTMENT
THE PERFORMANT LUBETM WALKING BELT
Your treadmill features a walking belt coated with
PERFORMANT LUBETM, a high-performance lubricant.
IMPORTANT: Never apply silicone spray or other
substances to the walking belt or the walking plat-
form. They will deteriorate the walking belt and
cause excessive wear.
HOW TO PLUG IN THE POWER CORD
Your treadmill, like any other type of sophisticated
electronic equipment, can be seriously damaged by
sudden voltage changes in your home’s power.
Voltage surges, spikes, and noise interference can re-
sult from weather conditions or from other appliances
being turned on or off.
To decrease the pos-
sibility of your tread-
mill being damaged,
always use a surge
protector (not in-
cluded) with your
treadmill.
Surge protectors are
sold at most hardware
stores and department
stores. Use only a CUL-
listed surge protector,
rated at 15 amps, with a
14-gauge cord of five
feet or less in length.
This product must be
grounded. If it should
malfunction or break
down, grounding pro-
vides a path of least re-
sistance for electric cur-
rent to reduce the risk of
electric shock. This product is equipped with a cord
having an equipment-grounding conductor and a
grounding plug. Plug the power cord into a surge
protector, and plug the surge protector into an ap-
propriate outlet that is properly installed and
grounded in accordance with all local codes and
ordinances.
This product is for use on a nominal 120-volt circuit,
and has a grounding plug that looks like the plug illus-
trated in drawing 1 below. A temporary adapter that
looks like the adapter illustrated in drawing 2 may be
used to connect the surge protector to a 2-pole recep-
tacle as shown in drawing 2 if a properly grounded out-
let is not available.
The temporary adapter should be used only until a
properly grounded outlet (drawing 1) can be installed
by a qualified electrician.
The green-colored rigid ear, lug, or the like extending
from the adapter must be connected to a permanent
ground such as a properly grounded outlet box cover.
Whenever the adapter is used it must be held in place
by a metal screw. Some 2-pole receptacle outlet box
covers are not grounded. Contact a qualified elec-
trician to determine if the outlet box cover is
grounded before using an adapter.
DANGER:Improper connection
of the equipment-grounding conductor can
result in an increased risk of electric shock.
Check with a qualified electrician or service-
man if you are in doubt as to whether the
product is properly grounded. Do not modify
the plug provided with the product—if it will
not fit the outlet, have a proper outlet in-
stalled by a qualified electrician.

HOW TO EXERCISE ON THE TREADMILL
The following guidelines will help you to plan your ex-
ercise program. Remember—these are general guide-
lines only.
EXERCISE INTENSITY
Whether your goal is to burn fat or to strengthen your
cardiovascular system, the key to achieving the de-
sired results is to exercise with the proper intensity.
The proper intensity level can be found by using your
heart rate as a guide. The chart below shows recom-
mended heart rates for fat burning and aerobic exer-
cise.
To find the proper heart rate for you, first find your age
on the left side of the chart (ages are rounded off to
the nearest ten years). Next, find the three numbers to
the right of your age. The three numbers are your
“training zone.” The lower two numbers are recom-
mended heart rates for fat burning; the higher number
is the recommended heart rate for aerobic exercise.
Fat Burning
To burn fat effectively, you must exercise at a relatively
low intensity level for a sustained period of time. During
the first few minutes of exercise, your body uses easily
accessible carbohydrate calories for energy. Only after
the first few minutes does your body begin to use
stored fat calories for energy. If your goal is to burn fat,
adjust the speed and incline of the treadmill until your
heart rate is near one of the lower two numbers in your
training zone. It may also be helpful to set the speed
control on the console to FAT BURN to help you main-
tain the proper intensity level. (See page 10.)
Aerobic Exercise
If your goal is to strengthen your cardiovascular sys-
tem, your exercise must be “aerobic.” Aerobic exercise
is activity that requires large amounts of oxygen for
prolonged periods of time. This increases the demand
on the heart to pump blood to the muscles, and on the
lungs to oxygenate the blood. For aerobic exercise,
adjust the speed and incline of the treadmill until your
heart rate is near the highest number in your training
zone. It may also be helpful to set the speed control on
the console to AEROBIC to help you maintain the
proper intensity level. (See page 10.)
High Performance Athletic Conditioning
If your goal is high performance athletic conditioning,
set the speed control on the console to PERFOR-
MANCE to help you maintain the proper intensity level.
(See page 10.) Note: During the first few weeks of your
exercise program, keep your heart rate near the low
end of your training zone.
HOW TO MEASURE YOUR HEART RATE
To measure your
heart rate, stop
exercising and
place two fingers
on your wrist as
shown. Take a
six-second heart-
beat count, and
multiply the result
by ten to find your
heart rate. (A six-second count is used because your
heart rate drops quickly when you stop exercising.) If
your heart rate is too high or too low, adjust the speed
or incline of the treadmill accordingly.
WORKOUT GUIDELINES
A well-rounded workout includes the following three
important parts:
A Warm-up
Start each workout with 5 to 8 minutes of stretching
and light exercise (see SUGGESTED STRETCHES on
page 13). A proper warm-up increases your body
temperature, heart rate, and circulation in preparation
for exercise.
WARNING:Before beginning
this or any exercise program, consult your
physician. This is especially important for in-
dividuals over the age of 35 or individuals
with pre-existing health problems.

Training Zone Exercise
After warming up, increase the intensity of your exer-
cise until your heart rate is in your training zone for 20
to 60 minutes. (During the first few weeks of your exer-
cise program, do not keep your heart rate in your train-
ing zone for longer than 20 minutes.) Breathe regularly
and deeply as you exercise—do not hold your breath.
A Cool-down
Finish each workout with 5 to 8 minutes of stretching
to cool down. This will increase the flexibility of your
muscles and will help to prevent post-exercise problems.
Exercise Frequency
To maintain or improve your condition, complete three
workouts each week, with at least one day of rest be-
tween workouts. After a few months, you may com-
plete up to five workouts each week if desired.
The key to success is to make exercise a regular and
enjoyable part of your everyday life.
SUGGESTED STRETCHES
The correct form for several basic stretches is shown at the
right. Move slowly as you stretch—never bounce.
1. Toe Touch Stretch
Stand with your knees bent slightly and slowly bend forward
from your hips. Allow your back and shoulders to relax as you
reach down toward your toes as far as possible. Hold for 15
counts, then relax. Repeat 3 times. Stretches: Hamstrings,
back of knees, and back.
2. Hamstring Stretch
Sit with one leg extended. Bring the sole of the opposite foot
toward you and rest it against the inner thigh of your extended
leg. Reach toward your toes as far as possible. Hold for 15
counts, then relax. Repeat 3 times for each leg. Stretches:
Hamstrings, lower back, and groin.
3. Calf/Achilles Stretch
With one leg in front of the other, reach forward and place your
hands against a wall. Keep your back leg straight and your
back foot flat on the floor. Bend your front leg, lean forward and
move your hips toward the wall. Hold for 15 counts, then relax.
Repeat 3 times for each leg. To cause further stretching of the
achilles tendons, bend your back leg as well. Stretches:
Calves, achilles tendons, and ankles.
4. Quadriceps Stretch
With one hand against a wall for balance, reach back and
grasp one foot with your other hand. Bring your heel as close
to your buttocks as possible. Hold for 15 counts, then relax.
Repeat 3 times for both legs. Stretches: Quadriceps and hip
muscles.
5. Inner Thigh Stretch
Sit with the soles of your feet together and your knees outward.
Pull your feet toward your groin area as far as possible. Hold
for 15 counts, then relax. Repeat 3 times. Stretches:
Quadriceps and hip muscles.

HOW TO LOWER THE BENCH FOR USE
To use the bench, the treadmill must be folded to the
storage position. See HOW TO FOLD THE TREAD-
MILL TO THE STORAGE POSITION on page 11.
Hold the end of
the bench as
shown—do not
hold the leg.
Using your
right hand,
slide the bench
knob to the
right as far as
possible. Make
sure that the
knob is moved
all of the way
to the “bench”
position. Note:
It may be nec-
essary to push
on the leg
while you slide
the knob to the
“bench” position. Lower the bench until the leg is rest-
ing on the floor.
HOW TO ADJUST THE BACKREST
The backrest can be used in a level position or in either
of two inclined positions. When the bench is first
lowered, the backrest will be in the level position. To
adjust the backrest to one of the inclined positions, first

The CROSSTRAINER offers a variety of exercises
designed to trim, tone, and strengthen the body.
Please read these guidelines before using the
weight bench. WARNING: Before beginning any
exercise program, consult your physician. This is
especially important for persons over the age of 35
or persons with pre-existing health problems.
STRENGTH TRAINING GUIDELINES
Your strength training program should include three
workouts each week. To give your body time to rest,
workouts should be on alternating days, such as
Monday, Wednesday, and Friday. Instead of waiting
for a convenient time to exercise, plan a specific time.
The morning hours work well for many, and the self-
discipline required to rise early and exercise may result
in greater productivity throughout the day. For others,
exercising before dinner offers a chance to wind down
from the day’s activities. Whatever time you choose,
be consistent and stick with it.
Each workout should include three important parts:
(1) a warm-up, (2) 6 to 10 exercises, and (3) a cool-
down.
Warming Up
Begin each workout with 5 to 8 minutes of stretching
(see SUGGESTED STRETCHES on page 13).
Stretching prepares the body for exercise by increas-
ing circulation, delivering more oxygen to the muscles,
and raising the body temperature.
Exercises
Next, perform 6 to 10 of the exercises shown on the
exercise chart on the CROSSTRAINER. To give bal-
ance and variety to your workouts, vary the exercises
from workout to workout.
Begin with 1 set of 12 repetitions for each exercise that
you do. (A “repetition” is one cycle of an exercise, such
as one sit-up. A “set” is a series of repetitions per-
formed without pausing.) As your fitness level in-
creases, perform 2 sets of 12 repetitions for each exer-
cise that you do. When you are ready for an advanced
workout, try 3 sets of 12 repetitions. Always rest for at
least 1 minute after each set. When you can complete
3 sets of 12 repetitions without difficulty, you may
choose to use heavier weights. CAUTION: The
CROSSTRAINER includes three pairs of hand
weights. Do not use any other weights with the
CROSSTRAINER.
Cooling Down
Finish each workout with 5 to 8 minutes of stretching to
cool down. This will increase your flexibility, and will
help to reduce post-exercise soreness.
Be careful to avoid overdoing it during the first few
months of your exercise program—it is important to
progress at your own pace. CAUTION: If you feel
pain or dizziness at any time, stop immediately and
begin cooling down.
EXERCISE FORM
For the best results, correct form is important. The ex-
ercise chart on the CROSSTRAINER shows the cor-
rect form for twenty different exercises. Try to move
through the full range of motion for each exercise and
move only the appropriate parts of the body. Perform
each exercise with a smooth, steady motion. Exhale as
you exert yourself, and inhale as you return to the
starting position; never hold your breath.
STAYING MOTIVATED
To stay motivated, try listening to music or watching
television while you exercise. It may also be helpful to
work out with a partner. Use a calendar to keep a
record of your workouts, and write key body measure-
ments at the end of every month. Remember, the key
to lasting results is to make exercise a regular and en-
joyable part of your daily life.

move the hood. Locate the Reed Switch (45) and the
Magnet (44) on the left side of the Pulley (49). Turn
the Pulley until the Magnet is aligned with the Reed
Switch. Make sure that the gap between the
Magnet and the Reed Switch is about 1/8”. If nec-
essary, loosen the Screw (53) and move the Reed
Switch slightly. Retighten the Screw. Re-attach the
hood, and run the treadmill for a few minutes to check
for a correct speed reading.

tipping it back, or the base pads may come off. To re-
duce the risk of injury, use extreme caution while
moving the CROSSTRAINER. Do not move the
CROSSTRAINER over an uneven surface.

mance may decrease and the walking belt may be
permanently damaged. Remove the key and UN-
PLUG THE POWER CORD. Using the allen wrench,
turn both rear roller adjustment bolts counterclock-
wise, 1/4 of a turn. When the walking belt is properly
tightened, you should be able to lift each side of the
walking belt 3 to 4 inches off the walking platform. The
centre of the walking belt should just touch the walk-
ing platform. Be careful to keep the walking belt cen-
tred. Plug in the power cord, insert the key and run
