Introduction
Welcome to the world of STAR TRAC m In your hands is the owner’s manual that will acquaint
you with your STAR TRAC 4500 TREADMILL assembly, operation and maintenance so
that you may begin reaching your fitness goals.
The TR4500 is the most comprehensive integration of user needs and the Club’s needs designed
into a clubs most used cardio vascular product, the Treadmill. The multifunctional display of the
TR4500 is the first thing users will appreciate for its style and utility. With a Walkman rest, reading
rack, bottle holder and towel hanger stylishly integrated into the display, it is obvious that the
design was generated with the user in mind. Further, the simplicity of this programmable treadmill
understates the extensive features and usability of this product.
We highly recommend that you read this owner’s manual prior to setting up and using your tread¬
mill. The information on the following pages will enable you to begin easily, quickly and safely.
