OPERATION AND ADJUSTMENT
THE PERFORMANT LUBE TM WALKING BELT
Your treadmill features a walking belt coated with
PERFORMANT LUBETM, a hlgh-pedormance lubricant.
IMPORTANT: Never apply ell|cone spray or other
substances to the walldng belt or the walking plat.
form. Such substances will deteriorate the walking
belt and cause excessive wear.
HOW TO PLUG IN THE POWER CORD
Your treadmlU, like any other type of sophisticated
electronic equipment, can be sedouely damaged by
sudden voltage changes In your homo's power.
Voltage surges, spikes, and noise Interference can
result from weather conditions or from other appliances
being turned on or off. To decrease the possibility of
your treadmill being damaged, always use a surge
suppressor with your treadmill (see drawing I at
the right).
Surge suppressors are sold at most hardware stores
and department stores. Use only a single-outlet surge
suppressor that Is UL 1449 listed as atransient voltage
surge suppressor (TVSS). The surge suppressor must
have a UL suppressed voltage rating of 400 volts or
less and a minimum surge dissipation of 450 joules.
The surge suppressor must be electrically rated for
120 volts AC and 15 amps.
This product must be grounded. If it should malfunc-
tion or break down, grounding provides a path of least
resistance for electric current to reduce the risk of elec-
tric shock. This product is equipped with a cord having
an equipment-grounding conductor and a grounding
plug. Plug the power cord into a surge suppressor,
and p|ug the surge suppressor into an appropriate
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 I below. A temporary adapter that
looks like the adapter illustrated in drawing 2 may be
used to connect the surge suppressor to a 2-pele
receptacle as shown in drawing 2 if a properly
grounded outlet is not available.

The temporary adapter should be used only until a
propedy grounded outlet (drawing 1) can be |nstailed
by a qualified electrician.
The green-colored rigidear, lug, or the like extending}
from the adapter must be connected to a permanent
ground such as a prepedy grounded outlet box cover.
Whenever the adapter isused 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.
