Important Electrical Information
Grounding Instructions
This product must be grounded. If it should malfunction or breakdown, grounding
provides a path of least resistance for electric current to reduce the risk of electric
shock. This product is equipped with a cord having an equipment-grounding plug. The
plug must be plugged into an appropriate outlet that is properly installed and grounded
in accordance with all local codes and ordinances.
DANGER - Improper connection of the equipment-grounding conductor can result
in a risk of electric shock. Check with a qualified electrician or serviceman 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
installed by a qualified electrician.
This product is for use on a nominal 120-volt circuit, and has a grounding plug that
looks like the plug illustrated in sketch A. A temporary adapter that looks like the
adapter illustrated in sketches B and C may be used to connect this plug to a 2-pole
receptacle as shown in sketch B if a properly grounded outlet is not available. The
temporary adapter should be used only until a properly grounded outlet (sketch A) 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.

TreadmillAssembly
Attention!
The following instructions are included only as information so that you, the con-
sumer, understand basically how the treadmill is assembled.
STEP 1: Remove treadmill from carton. You may pick the rear of the treadmill up and
roll it off the packaging. Remove foam padding, wrap, etc. Observe for possible
freight damage.
Note: You will need a phillips screw driver and 1/2” wrench to complete assembly.
STEP 2: This owners manual packet contains (2) Allen wrenches and (4) black plugs.
When practical, assembly hardware is mounted in appropriate locations that require
removal and replacement. The computer head is loose. Set aside for step 6.
STEP 3: An unpainted steel channel connects the console uprights to the base. With
phillips screwdriver and Allen wrench (provided) unbolt the console uprights from base.
Discard plastic washers (4) and steel channels. The 5/16” x 1” Allen bolts and “gold”
special nut/washers will be used in step 5. The black phillips head screws will be used
in step 8.
STEP 4: Raise the console upright assembly and place upright console assembly into
front grill area. Be careful of the two cables. A bottom and rear 3/8” pin will help locate
into proper position to allow hardware installation. Locate the (4) 5/16” x 1” black Allen
bolts and “gold” special 5/16” washer/nuts removed in step 4. Place one bolt on the end of
the Allen wrench (provided) and insert thru any one of (4) round frame holes. Bolt
should go thru console hole to allow “gold” 5/16” hex nut/washer to be started. Hand
“run” the nut against the console so that it will not turn during tightening with Allen
wrench. Do not tighten with Allen wrench until all (4) nut/bolt assemblies are inserted
and started. Tighten all bolts. Nuts should “hold” without a wrench. If they do not hold
use an open end wrench from the bottom. Insert the (4) black plugs into the access
holes.
Note: For heavy use units it is advisable to use a wrench on the nuts and add addi-
tional torque to nut / bolt.
STEP 5: Handles will install thru access holes in console upright. Remove both
5/16” Allen bolts in each handle with included wrench that is located in parts bag. Slide
handle (flair to outside) thru access holes in console upright. Use caution to avoid
data cables in left hand side console upright. You may observe data cable clear-
ance from top of open console upright. Start both bolts into hand rail thru console
upright. Repeat procedure for opposite hand rail. Tighten all bolts.

STEP 6: Place the treadmill in operating position. Make certain cables from upper
computer do not come in contact with motor fan. Apply AC power. Start the unit and
observe belt tracking. Unit must be reasonably level for proper tracking. Test treadmill
basic operation. This includes noise, motor performance, etc.
STEP 7: Install motor hood and secure with (2) black phillips head screws removed in
step 4. Front of motor hood is not secured.
The dealer must provide the following (minimum):
n Follow the belt tracking instructions closely in order to ensure proper belt tension
and path.
n Walk on the belt at slow speeds under 2.5 mph for a few minutes in order to break
in the belt/deck lubricant.
n Make certain treadmill is electrically grounded.

l NEVER operate this treadmill without reading and completely understanding the
results of any operational change you request from the computer.
l Understand that changes in speed and incline do not occur immediately. Set your
desired speed on the computer console and release the adjustment key. The computer
will obey the command gradually.
l NEVER use your treadmill during an electrical storm. Surges may occur in your
household power supply that could damage treadmill components. Removing safety
cord will protect the unit.
l Use caution while participating in other activities while walking on your treadmill;
such as watching television, reading, etc. These distractions may cause you to lose
balance or stray from walking in the center of the belt; which may result in serious
injury.
l NEVER mount or dismount the treadmill while the belt is moving. Smooth treadmills
start with zero speed and it is unnecessary to straddle the belt during start up. Simply
standing on the belt during slow acceleration is proper after you have learned to oper-
ate the unit.
l Always hold on to a handrail or grab bar while making control changes (incline, speed,
etc.). Do not use excessive pressure on console control overlays. They are precision
set to function properly with little finger pressure. Pushing harder is not going to make
the unit go faster or slower. If you feel the buttons are not functioning properly with
normal pressure contact your Smooth dealer; adjustments can be made. All buttons
should operate and control treadmill functions without excessive finger effort. Damage
to overlay will result if excessive control pressure continues.
Important Operation Instructions
Safety Tether Cord
A safety tether cord is provided with this unit. It is a simple
magnetic design that should be used at all times. It is for your
safety should you fall or move too far back on the treadbelt.
Pulling this safety tether cord will stop treadbelt movement.
ToUse:
1. Place magnet into position on the console control head.
Your treadmill will not start and operate without this. Removing the magnet also se-
cures the treadmill from unauthorized use.
2. Fasten the black plastic clip onto your clothing securely to assure good holding
power. Note: The magnet has strong enough power to minimize accidental, unex-
pected stopping and the clip should be attached securely to make certain it does not
come off. Be familiar with its function and limitations. Use the adjustment system to
assure proper length of cord.
The treadmill will stop, depending on speed, with a two to three step coast anytime the
magnet is pulled off the console. Use the red STOP/PAUSE switch in normal operation.

(2) Pull tether cord. Should be used only in panic situation.
HourMeterFeature:
When the tether cord is initially placed in operational position the Distance window will
display total hours.
The Speed window indicates upper computer software version. This is a service issue
to refer to computer software design.
Dot Matrix Display
oThis display illustrates in programmable modes the workout effort. Twenty rows of
“dots” (7 high) indicate each segment of a workout. When all the “dots” of a row
are lit, this indicates 100% of the program level. For example: if a program
maximum speed is 3.5 mph, all dots lit mean 3.5 mph. The dots are only to show
an approximate level (speed/incline) of effort. They do not necessarily indicate a
specific value - only an approximate percent to compare levels of intensity.

Program Descriptions
NOTE: Refer to the section entitled “Operating Your New Treadmill” for program opera-
tion instructions. Speed and Incline Programs
All Smooth Programmable treadmills are equipped with eight different programs to add
variety to your workout. Each program is evenly divided into 10 equal segments. The
workout computer will automatically divide any selected workout time by 10 to give you
equal segment lengths. We provide you with four different program examples, from
which you can develop and program your own workouts in the computer’s memory. All
Factory Defined programs come pre-packaged with warm up and cool down periods at
the beginning and end of each program to help you exercise properly.
Factory Defined Exercise Programs
Programs P1 through P4 are generalized programs that are provided as simple ex-
amples of workouts and the results that may occur as a result of these workouts. Con-
sult your physician before beginning any exercise program and do not exceed their
guidelines.
Factory Defined selections are characterized by programs that are pre-
determined by our team of exercise experts. If you make any changes
before you begin exercising or during exercise, the changes will be erased once the
machine has been turned off at the end of your program and will return to the original
factory program.
Definition of the Factory Defined Programs
P1- Interval Trainer - This program is designed to increase your endurance and build
your lung power through periods of work load and rest. This is an extremely popular
form of training for athletes that experience periods of work load and rest during perfor-
mance.
P2- Thigh Burner - This program is designed to gradually increase the work load using
incline while maintaining a somewhat constant speed. This hill profile is designed to
burn away fat in the thigh area by concentrating the intense workout on the thighs.
P3- Cardio Conditioner - For the majority of people, work loads indicated in this pro-
gram are similar to those experienced while using Heart Rate Control. Through this
process, the cardiovascular system is strengthened.
P4- Weight Manager - By using varying work loads, this program creates interest and
helps you stick with your workout. Through this process, it gives you the opportunity to
improve your fitness while gradually replacing fat with muscle.

General Maintenance
Belt and Bed - Your treadmill uses a very high-efficient low-friction bed. Performance
is maximized when the bed is kept as clean as possible. Use a soft, damp cloth or
paper towel to wipe the edge of the belt and the area between the belt edge and frame.
Also reach as far as practical directly under the belt edge. This should be done once a
month to extend belt and bed life. Use water only - no cleaners or abrasives. A mild
soap and water solution along with a nylon scrub brush will clean the top of the textured
belt. Allow to dry before using.
Belt Dust - This occurs during normal break-in or until the belt stabilizes. Wiping
excess off with a damp cloth will minimize buildup.
General Cleaning - Dirt, dust, and pet hair can block air inlets and accumulate on the
running belt. On a monthly basis, vacuum underneath your treadmill to prevent
buildup. Once a year, you should remove the black motor hood and vacuum out dirt
that may accumulate. UNPLUG POWER CORD BEFORE THIS TASK.
BELTADJUSTMENTS:
Treadbelt Tension Adjustment - Belt tension is not critical for most users. It is very
important for joggers and runners in order to provide a smooth, steady running surface.
Adjustment must be made from the right side of the rear roller in order to adjust tension
with the 1/4” allen wrench provided in the parts package. The adjustment bolt is lo-
cated at the end of the right side rail as noted in diagram below.
Tighten the rear roller only enough to prevent slippage at the front roller. Turn the
treadbelt tension adjusting bolt in increments of 1/4 turn and inspect for proper tension.
When an adjustment is made to the belt tension, you must also make a tracking
adjustment to compensate for the change in belt tension. This is accomplished by
turning both the tension and tracking allen bolts an equal amount. This adjustment
should be made by turning both bolts clockwise by no more than a 1/4 turn at a time.
DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN - Overtightening will cause belt damage and premature
bearing failure.

TREADBELTTRACKINGADJUSTMENT:
The performance of your treadmill is dependent on the frame running on a reasonably
level surface. If the frame is not level, the front and back roller cannot run parallel, and
constant belt adjustment may be necessary.
The treadmill is designed to keep the treadbelt reasonably centered while in use. It is
normal for some belts to vary near a side while the belt is running with no one on it.
After a few minutes of use, the treadbelt should have a tendency to center itself. If,
during use, the belt continues to move toward one side, adjustments are necessary.
TOSETTREADBELTTRACKING:
A 1/4” allen wrench is provided to adjust the rear roller. Make tracking adjustments
from the left side only. Set belt speed at approximately 2 to 3 mph. A small adjustment
can make a dramatic difference. Turn the bolt only a 1/4 turn and wait a few minutes for
the belt to adjust itself. Continue to make 1/4 turns until the belt stabilizes in the center
of the running deck.
The belt may require periodic tracking adjustment depending on use and walking/
running characteristics. Some users will affect tracking differently. Expect to make
adjustments as required to center the treadbelt. Adjustments will become less of a
maintenance concern as the belt is used. Proper belt tracking is an owner responsibil-
ity common with all treadmills.
CAUTION-KEEP HANDS CLEAR OF MOVING REAR PULLEY!
Belt will move in direction of allen wrench.
ATTENTION:
DAMAGE TO THE RUNNING BELT RESULTING FROM IMPROPER TRACKING /
TENSION ADJUSTMENTS IS NOT COVERED UNDER THE SPIRIT WARRANTY.
LUBRICATION:
Do not relube with other than Smooth lubricant. See your Smooth dealer for purchase.
The use of some other lubricants may destroy the deck surface or belt and will void
warranty. If the treadmill belt/deck is kept reasonably clean it is possible to expect over
1000 hours before relubing is necessary.
