OPERATION AND ADJUSTMENT
GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
This product must be grounded. If it should malfunction or break down, 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 conductor and a 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 Drawing 1. A temporary adapter that looks like the adapter illustrated 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 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-poie receptacle outlet box covers are not grounded. Contact a qualified
electrician to determine If the outlet box cover is grounded before using an adapter.

3. Turn the Speed Control Knob counterclockwise until it stops, and then clockwise until the
Walking Belt is moving at slow speed. (The Speed Control Knob must be turned
counterclockwise until it stops each time the power is turned on.
4. Hold the Handrail firmly and step onto the moving Walking Belt.
5. Turn the Speed Control Knob slowly until the desired speed is reached. Turning the Knob
clockwise increases the speed. Turning the Knob counterclockwise decreases the speed.
6. To turn the power off, press the On/Off Switch and remove the Safety Card.
Instructions for operating the Electronic Monitor can be found in the Operation Guide accorriDanv-
ing this Manual. w y
INCLINE ADJUSTMENT
To increase or decrease the level of exercise difficulty, the incline
of the treadmill can be changed with the Incline Control Lever on
the treadmill Console. Do not adjust the incline while you are
walking or running on the treadmill. To increase the incline,
stand on the Frame, toward the back of the treadmill, and pull
back the Lever. When the desired angle is reached, release the
Lever. To. decrease the incline, stand toward the front of the
treadmill, lean forward if necessary and pull back the Lever until
the desired angle is reached.
The Incline Indicator can be adjusted, if necessary, by lowering the
treadmill to the lowest position and turning the small Adjustment
Screw above the indicator until the bubble in the Indicator is at
level 1.

MAINTENANCE AND STORAGE
Check ail parts periodically to ensure that they are tightened securely. Outside surfaces of the
treadmill can be cleaned using a damp cloth and mild, non-abrasive detergent. Do not allow
liquids to come in contact with the console.
WALKING BELT ADJUSTMENT
To prevent damage to the Walking Belt, always keep the Belt centered during operation.
Stand beside the treadmill and turn the treadmill on at medium speed. Observe the spaces bet¬
ween the edges of the Walking Belt and the Frame. If the Belt is closer to one side of the Frame
than to the other, center the Belt in the following manner:
1. Locate the Belt Adjustment Bolts and the Allen Wrench. Important: Keep your hands away
from the moving Walking Belt or serious injury could result.
2. A. If the Walking Belt has shifted to the left side:
Turn the left Adjustment Bolt clockwise and the
right Adjustment Bolt counterclockwise, 1/8 of a
turn at a time, until the Belt moves to the center.
B. If the Walking Belt has shifted to the right side:
Turn the left Adjustment Bolt counterclockwise and
the right Adjustment Bolt clockwise, 1/8 of a turn
at a time, until the Belt moves to the center.
If the Walking Belt slips during operation, the tension
should be adjusted. Turn both Adjustment Bolts clockwise
an equal amount until the Belt no longer slips. Be careful
to keep the Belt centered. Do not over-tighten the Bolts.
Overtightening may stretch the belt, cause excessive roller
noise and reduce motor performance.
To check for proper Walking Belt tightness, unplug the
Power Cord and lift the sides of the Belt. You should be able
to lift both sides approximately 2-3 inches off of the Walking
Platform. The center of the Belt should remain just at the
surface of the platform, causing the Belt to bow.

The Allen Wrench can be stored on one of the Rear Adjust¬
ment Brackets using the Self-adhesive Clamp included.
CIRCUIT BREAKER
If the treadmill stops or will not start, check the Circuit
Breaker located on the front of the Frame near the Power
Cord. The Circuit Breaker is designed to protect the
electrical system. If the Circuit Breaker has tripped, the
switch will protrude as shown. To reset the Circuit Breaker,
allow the treadmill to cool for a few minutes and then push
the switch back in.
SILICONE APPLICATION
To maintain the low-friction quality of the Walking Belt and
reduce treadmill wear, a non-oil, non-petroleum base
silicone lubricant should be applied generously to the
Walking Platform. (Silicone lubricant is available at most
hardware and automotive stores.) It is very important to
apply silicone lubricant before initial use of the treadmill.
Lubricant should also be applied after every 10 hours of use
or whenever a decrease in performance is noticed. Unplug
the Power Cord, lift each side of the Walking Belt and apply
the lubricant generously to the area indicated in the drawing.
STORAGE
Always unplug the Power Cord when the treadmill is not in use. To convert the treadmill to
the storage position, loosen the Upright Locking Knob and carefully lower the Handrail Upright
onto the treadmill. The treadmill can be moved by lifting the back end of the Frame and pushing
or pulling the machine on the front wheels.
CONDITIONING GUIDELINES
The following guidelines will help you to plan and regulate your personal fitness program.
However, before beginning this or any exercise program, consult your physician. Remember
that adequate rest and good nutrition are also essential to the success of any fitness program.
EXERCISE INTENSITY
To maximize health benefits from exercising, your level of exertion must exceed mild demands
while falling short of causing breathlessness and fatigue; The proper level of exertion can be
determined using the heart rate, as a guide. For effective aerobic exercise the heart rate must be
maintained at a level between 70% and 85% of your maximum heart rate. This is your “Training

You can determine your Training Zone by consulting the table below. Training Zones are aiven fnr

During the first few weeks of your exercise program you should keep your heart rate near the low end
of your Training Zone. Over the course of a few months, gradually increase your heart rate until you
reach the high end of your Training Zone. As your condition improves, a greater workload will be
equired in order to raise your heart rate to your Training Zone.
You can measure your heart rate and find the proper level of exercise intensity usinq the elec¬
tronic monitor (see the ELECTRONIC MONITOR OPERATION GUIDE). Set the TIME SET function
for 4 minutes. Press the “START/STOP” key and exercise at a comfortable pace until the 4
minutes elapse. Immediately measure your heart rate using the PULSE function. If your heart rate
is below your Training Zone, increase your level of exertion. If your heart rate is too hiqh reduce
your level of exertion. a ’
EXERCISE PATTERN
Each workout should consist of a basic 5-step pattern.
1. At rest 2. Warm-up 3. Training Zone exercise 4. Cool-down 5. At rest
Warmmg up is an important part of your workout and should not be taken lightly. Warming up prepares
the body for more strenuous exercise by increasing the circulation, delivering more oxygen to the
muscles, and raising the body temperature. This can be done by stretching and light calisthenics for
5-10 minutes prior to exercising.
Begin exercising at a light pace for a few minutes. Then increase the intensity to raise your heart rate
to your Training Zone for a period of 20-30 minutes.
Cooling doyvn after vigorous exercise is important in aiding circulation and preventing soreness. 5-10
minutes of light exercise or stretching will allow the body, to cool down.
EXERCISE FREQUENCY
To maintain or improve your condition you must work out 2,3 times per week following the patterr
described above. A day of rest between workouts is recommended. After several months of
