OPERATION AND ADJUSTMENT
THE PRE-LUBRmCATED WALKmNG BELT
Your treadmHUfeatures a waUkingbeUtcoated with high°
performance Uubrbant, IMPORTANT: Never apply siF
icone spray or other substances to the walking
belt or the walking platform. Such substances will
deteriorate the walking belt and cause excessive
wear.
HOW TO PLUG IN THE POWER CORD
DANG ER: Improperconnection
of the equipment_grounding conductor can
result in an increased risk of electric shock.
Check with a qualified electrician or service-
man 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,
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 intederence can
result from weather conditions or from other appli-
ances being turned on or off, To decrease the pos-
sibility of your treadmill being damaged, aJways
use a surge suppressor with your treadmill (see
drawing 1 at the right}. To purchase a surge sup-
pressor, see your Jocal Sears store or call !-800-
368-7278 and order part number 148148, or see
your tocal electronics store.
Use onJy a singJe-ouflet surge suppressor that is
UL 1449 tisted as a transient voJtage surge sup-
pressor (TVSS). The surge suppressor must have
a UL suppressed voJtage rating of 400 voJts or tess
and a minimum surge dissipation of 450 jouJes.
The surge suppressor must be electrically rated
for 120 voffs AC and 15 amps. There must be a
monitoring Jight on the surge suppressor to indi-
cate whether it is functioning properly. Failure to
use a property functioning surge suppressor could
resuff in damage to the control system of the
treadmill. If the contro! system is damaged, the
waJking beJt may change speed, accelerate or stop
unexpectedly, which may result in a fall and seri-
ous injury.
This product must be grounded, if it should mal-
function 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. Plug the power cord into a surge
suppressor, and plug the surge suppressor into an
appropriate outlet that is properly installed and
grounded in accordance with aH JocaJ codes and
ordinances. Important: The treadmill is not com-
patible with GFCl-equipped outlets.
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,

2_rounded Outlet Box
Adapter Surge Suppressor
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 receptacJe outlet
box covers are not grounded. Contact a qualified
electrician to determine if the outlet box cover is
grounded before using an adapter.
