OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
The Magnetic Safety Key
IMPORTANT: The treadmill will not work if the magnetic safety key is not in place. Before starting the treadmill, attach the key
to the computer, then attach the clip on the other end to your clothing (Above the waist). If this key is pulled out whilst you
are running on the treadmill then the mat will stop turning.
When the treadmill is not in use you should remove the safety key and store it somewhere safe, away from the treadmill. This
will prevent any unauthorized use of the treadmill. Store the safety key in a safe place OUT OF REACH OF CHILDREN.
Getting on the Treadmill
The following procedure has been proven to be the safest and easiest method of mounting the treadmill. For your protection,
carefully read and follow these simple steps:
Be sure the treadmill is positioned on a at, level surface.
Make sure the magnetic safety key is not attached then plug in the treadmill power cable to a suitable power socket and
switch on at the socket.
Turn on the treadmill power switch which is located near where the power cable attaches to the treadmill.
Straddle the running mat with your feet rmly planted on the right and left side rails. Stand close enough so you can
extend your arms to touch all the buttons on the console. CAUTION: Do not stand on the mat yet.
Insert the safety key.
Press“START” key to start at the lowest speed.
Starting your exercise
Stand on the running mat.
Once you have selected your workout, the treadmill will slowly increase it’s speed to the desired levels.
Continue to grip the handles until you are walking / running normally.
After gaining stability and condence, release your grip on the handrails and let your arms swing freely and naturally at
your side.
NOTE: Walking straight on the treadmill is aided by focusing on a stationary object across the room in front of you.
Walk as if you were approaching that object.
Getting o the treadmill
The following procedure has been proven to be the safest and easiest method of dismounting the treadmill. For your
protection, carefully read and follow these simple steps:
Turn treadmill to the lowest speed and incline.
Firmly grip the handles to support yourself.
Remove your trailing foot from the walking platform and place it on the foot pad on the side of the treadmill. This is
very easy to do because the natural movement of walking will have shifted your weight onto the foot that just stepped
forward.
Shift your weight to the stationary foot on the foot pad, and remove the other foot from the walking platform and place it
on the other foot pad. You should now be in the starting position.
Press“STOP” key to stop the treadmill and disconnect the safety key then unplug treadmill from the power outlet when
nished.
IN AN EMERGENCY, take hold of the handrails and place your feet on the side rails provided, once you are stable, pull
out the safety key. The treadmill will then begin to decelerate until it stops.

Mat alignment and tension
The alignment and tension of the mat (walking surface) has
been set prior to shipping. Should improper tracking of the
mat occur (walking surface moving too far to right/ left on the
platform) or if you nd that the mat slips when you get on,
these problems can be corrected as follows:
Locate the adjustment screws on the end of the main
frame. CAUTION: Adjust the mat when the treadmill is
running at low speed. Keep others away from the treadmill.
Connect the safety key and set to the lowest speed.
Allow the mat to run for several minutes and watch to see if it runs in the center position properly. If the mat does not run
in the center position, carry out the steps for“MAT MOVES TO LEFT” or “MAT MOVES TO RIGHT”. Be sure that you adjust by
“1/2 turn only each time”to avoid over correcting.
MAT MOVES TO RIGHT: If your mat tends to move to the right, then adjust the right screw by turning it a 1/2 turn clockwise.
We recommend adjustments of 1/2 turn only at a time, then test each time. If your mat continues to move to the right, simply
adjust the left adjustment screw, by turning 1/2 turn counterclockwise, test after each adjustment.
MAT MOVES TO LEFT: If your mat tends to move to the left, then the adjustment of the right screw is necessary by turning
counterclockwise. We recommend adjustments of 1/2 turn only at a time, then test each time. If the mat continues to move to
the left, simply adjust the left adjustment screw, by turning 1/2 turn clockwise, then test each time.
NOTE: For most people, one of your legs is stronger than the other and the treadmill mat may tend to track to that side
because of the extra pressure exerted by your stronger leg. If this occurs then either dismount the treadmill and allow
the mat to track back to the middle, or exert pressure to the side of the mat with the other leg to track the mat back to
the middle. Or adjust the mat to compensate following the instructions for the mat moves to the right or left.
MAT TOO LOOSE: If your mat appears to be loose, simply tighten both screws by an equal amount (1/2 a turn clockwise at a
time) then test.
MAT TOO TIGHT: If it appears tight, simply loosen both screws by an equal amount (1/2 a turn counter-clockwise at a time)
then test.
MAT STICKY (DOES NOT RUN SMOOTHLY): You may feel after a period of time (depending on how often you use the
machine) that the mat feels sticky. We recommend you apply a light covering of Silicone between the mat and the running
board. This procedure may be repeated as necessary.
Mat and deck lubrication
This treadmill is equipped with a pre-lubricated, maintenance deck system. The mat / deck friction may play a major role in the
function and life of your treadmill, this requires periodic lubrication. We recommend a periodic inspection of the deck. If the
deck appears worn, please contact our service department.
We recommend lubrication of the deck according to the following timetable:
Less than 3 hours per week - every 8 months.
3-5 hours per week - every 4 months
More than 5 hours per week - every 2 months.
Proper Lubrication Application
Using a coin to open the top cap covers above the left and right lubricant bottles. Then put half of lubrication that is in the
spare parts box into the left and right bottles. After it is done, put the top cap covers back and tighten them securely.
Start the treadmill and set the speed at the lowest speed. Let the mat run for about 15 minutes in order to spread the
lubrication on the underneath side of the running mat properly.

ALWAYS CONSULT YOUR DOCTOR BEFORE
UNDERTAKING A NEW EXERCISE REGIME. IF YOU
EXPERIENCE NAUSEA, DIZZINESS OR OTHER
ABNORMAL SYMPTOMS DURING EXERCISE, STOP AT
ONCE AND CONSULT YOUR DOCTOR.
Starting your workout
Begin and end each workout with a Warm Up / Cool Down
session - a few minutes of stretching to help prevent
strains, pulls and cramps.
Get onto the treadmill, using the handrails for
support, and place your feet on the side rails (Either
side of the running mat.).
Activate the treadmill by following this manual.
The treadmill will always start at the lowest speed,
step onto the mat and walk at the same speed and
continue the rest of your workout.
Finishing your workout
Turn to the lowest speed and incline settings.
Using the handrails for support, place your feet on the
side rails (Either side of the running mat).
Stop the treadmill.
Turn the treadmill o at the main power switch and
remove the plug from the electrical outlet.
Remove the safety key.
Wipe the treadmill down with a damp cloth.
End each workout with a Cool Down session - a few
minutes of stretching to help prevent strains, pulls and
cramps.
Correct exercising form
Run in the centre of the running mat.
Keep your head up and look straight ahead.
Shoulders should be square and level, don’t round
your shoulders or swing them forwards or backwards.
Keep your torso erect with the chest up so there’s
plenty of room for the diaphragm to move for proper
breathing action.
Do not lean forwards, backwards or slouch, as all
of these posture deviations can place a lot of stress
on the lower back, interfering with proper running
mechanics and possibly causing lower back injury.
Feet should be pointed straight ahead and land
directly under the hips.

How long should I exercise for?
That really depends on your current level of tness. If
you’re just starting out on a new exercise program, you
should not try to do too much too quickly. 30 minutes,
3 times a week should be enough. You should never feel
overly exhausted during or following exercise.
Heart rate training
To get the most out of your new piece of tness
equipment, you should exercise at the right level of eort,
and that means listening to your heart! Working out to a
target heart rate means you can direct your workout to
achieve dierent goals:
Good health - For those wishing to improve quality of life
and general well being. Your sessions will need to be done
at an intensity of between 50 - 60% of your estimated
maximum heart rate, should last about 30 minutes and
can be done on most days of the week.
Weight loss - To see a signicant reduction in body fat,
your sessions must be a little more intense - between
60 - 70% of your estimated maximum heart rate. These
sessions can also be performed on most days of the week
for up to 30 minutes.
Improving tness levels - These sessions should be
performed at 70 - 80% of your estimated maximum heart
rate and can also involve bouts of interval training that
would have your heart rate peaking for short times near
your maximum heart rate level. These are intense sessions
and will require at least a 48 hour rest between sessions.
Calculating your target heart rate
First, you need to nd your estimated maximum heart rate
using the formula 220 minus your age in ve years. So, if
you are 35 years old your estimated maximum heart rate
is: 220 - 35 = 185 beats per minutes (BPM)
Next to calculate your target heart rate, simply multiply
your estimated maximum heart rate ( 185 BPM ) by the
applicable percentage. So, if your goal is better heart:
185 x 60% = 111 BPM
NOTE: The important issue to remember with all
estimated calculations is that they are just estimates
- if you don’t feel comfortable exercising at your target
then reduce it to a level you are comfortable with. Heart
rate training requires you to monitor your heart rate
throughout the workout. For this we recommend using
a chest strap (if you machine has a wireless receiver ) or
a heart rate monitor. For more information please visit

Technical Support
WHEN TO CALL FOR HELP
This treadmill is designed with user safety as the number
one priority. In the event of an electrical failure, the
treadmill will shut o automatically to prevent user injury
and to prevent damage to expensive components such as
the motor.
When you encounter unusual behavior from the treadmill,
simply turn the power switch o and on to reset the
treadmill. This should clear incidental errors and prepare
the treadmill for normal operation again. If, after you have
reset the treadmill by turning the power switch o and on
again, the treadmill is still not operational, then it is time
to call your dealer for advice.
NO SIGNAL ON THE CONSOLE LCD WINDOWS
If there is no signal on the monitor, even after you have
switched the treadmill o and on again to reset, check the
communication cable between the monitor and motor
controller. First, make sure the connections are rmly
connected and that the cable is not pinched or damaged.
If defective, ask your dealer for a replacement cable.
