OPERATION AND ADJUSTMENT
THE LOW-MAINTENANCE WALKING BELT
Your treadmill features a low-maintenance walking belt
coated with PERFORMANT LUBE TM, a high-
performance lubricant. During the first few hours of
use, it is normal for a small amount of white powder to
appear on the foot rails and the walking platform. The
white powder is high-performance lubricant from the
walking belt. IMPORTANT: Never apply silicone
spray or other substances to the walking belt or
the walking platform. They will deteriorate the
walking belt and cause excessive wear.
HOW TO PLUG IN THE POWER CORD
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 an appropriate out-
let that is properly installed and grounded in
accordance with all local codes and ordinances.
Atemporary adapter that looks like the adapter illus-
trated in Drawing 2 may be used to connect this plug
to a 2-pole receptacle as shown in Drawing 2 if a
properly grounded outlet is not available. The

temporary adapfer should be used only until a properly
grounded outlet (Drawing 1) can be installed by a qual-
ified electrician. The green colored rigidear, lug, or the
like extending from the adapter must be connected to
a permanent ground such as a properly grounded out-
let box cover. Whenever the adapter is used itmust
be held in place by a metal screw.
Some 2-pole receptacle outlet box covers are not
grounded. Contact a qualified electrician to deter,
mine if the outlet box cover is grounded before
using an adapter.
HOW TO USE THE UPPER BODY ARMS
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.

body arm with each hand, and move the arms forward
and backward as you walk on the treadmill.

tance ofthe
