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 ilicone pray or other
ub tance to the walking belt or the walking plat-
form. Such ub tance will deteriorate the walking
belt and cau e exce ive 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
result from weather conditions or from other appliances
being turned on or off. To decrea e the po ibility of
your treadmill being damaged, alway u e a urge
uppre or with your treadmill ( ee drawing 1 at
the right). To purcha e a urge uppre or, ee
your local Sear or call 1-800-366-7278 and order
part number 146148.
U e only a ingle-outlet urge uppre or that i
UL 1449 li ted a a tran ient voltage urge up-
pre or (TVSS). The urge uppre or mu t have a
UL uppre ed voltage rating of 400 volt or le
and a minimum urge di ipation of 450 joule .
The urge uppre or mu t be electrically rated
for 120 volt AC and 15 amp . There mu t be a
monitoring light on the urge uppre or to indi-
cate whether it i functioning properly. Failure to
u e a properly functioning urge uppre or could
re ult in damage to the control y tem of the
treadmill. If the control y tem i damaged, the
walking belt may change peed or top unexpect-
edly, which may re ult in a fall and eriou injury.
Thi product mu t 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 urge uppre or,
and plug the urge uppre or into an appropriate
outlet that i properly in talled and grounded in
accordance with all local code and ordinance .
Important: The treadmill i not compatible with
GFCI-equipped outlet .
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 suppressor to a 2-pole
receptacle as shown in drawing 2 if a properly
grounded outlet 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
cover are not grounded. Contact a qualified elec-
trician to determine if the outlet box cover i
grounded before u ing an adapter.
DANGER:Improper connection
of the equipment-grounding conductor can
re ult in an increa ed ri k of electric hock.
Check with a qualified electrician or ervice-
man if you are in doubt a to whether the
product i properly grounded. Do not modify
the plug provided with the product—if it will
not fit the outlet, have a proper outlet
in talled by a qualified electrician.
