ASSEMBLY
Assembly requires two persons. Set the treadmill in a cleared area and remove all packing materials. Do not
dispose of the packing materials until assembly is completed. Note: The underside of the treadmill walking
belt is coated with high-performance lubricant. During shipping, a small amount of lubricant may be transferred to
the top of the walking belt or the shipping carton. This is a normal condition and does not affect treadmill perfor-
mance. If there is lubricant on top of the walking belt, simply wipe off the lubricant with a soft cloth and a mild,
non-abrasive cleaner.

Assembly requires the included hex keys .

Use the drawings below to identify the assembly hardware. The number in parentheses below each drawing is
the key number of the part, from the PART LIST near the end of this manual. The number after the parentheses
is the quantity needed for assembly. Note: If a part is not in the hardware kit, check to see if it is preattached
to one of the parts to be assembled. To avoid damaging plastic parts, do not use power tools for assem-
bly. Extra hardware may be included.

mill. Note: Extra hardware may be included. Keep the included hex keys in a secure place; one of the hex
keys is used to adjust the walking belt (see pages 19 and 20).

If you purchase the optional chest pulse sensor (see page 16), follow the steps below to install the re-

OPERATION AND ADJUSTMENT
THE PRE-LUBRICATED WALKING BELT

Your treadmill features a walking belt coated with high-performance lubricant. IMPORTANT: Never apply sili-
cone spray or other substances to the walking belt or the walking platform. Such substances will deterio-
rate the walking belt and cause excessive wear.

HOW TO PLUG IN THE POWER CORD

must be replaced with a manufacturer-recommended power
cord.

See drawing 1. Plug the indicated end of the power cord into the
socket on the treadmill.

See drawing 2. Press the pins on the power cord into the metal clips 2

HOW TO FOLD AND MOVE THE TREADMILL
HOW TO FOLD THE TREADMILL FOR STORAGE

Before folding the treadmill, adjust the incline to the

lowest position. If you do not do this, you may damage the
treadmill when you fold it. Remove the key and unplug the
power cord. CAUTION: You must be able to safely lift 45
lbs. (20 kg) to raise, lower, or move the treadmill.

1. Hold the metal frame firmly in the location shown by

the arrow at the right. CAUTION: To decrease the pos-
sibility of injury, do not lift the frame by the plastic
foot rails. Make sure to bend your legs and keep your
back straight as you raise the frame. Raise the frame
about halfway to the vertical position.

2. Raise the frame until the latch knob locks into the storage
position. Make sure that the latch knob is locked in the
storage position.

To protect the floor or carpet from damage, place a

mat under the treadmill. Keep the treadmill out of di-
rect sunlight. Do not leave the treadmill in the storage Frame

Most treadmill problems can be solved by following the steps below. Find the symptom that applies, and
follow the steps listed. If further assistance is needed, please see the front cover of this manual.

PROBLEM: The power does not turn on

SOLUTION: a. Make sure that the power cord is plugged into a properly earthed outlet (see page 10). If an ex-
tension cord is needed, use only a 3-conductor, 1 mm2 (14-gauge) cord that is no longer than 5 ft.
(1.5 m). IMPORTANT: The treadmill is not compatible with RCD-equipped outlets.

b. After the power cord has been plugged in, make sure that the key is inserted into the console.

PROBLEM: The power turns off during use

SOLUTION: a. Check the reset/off circuit breaker (see the drawing above). If the circuit breaker has tripped, wait
for five minutes and then press the switch back in.

b. Make sure that the power cord is plugged in. If the power cord is plugged in, unplug it, wait for
five minutes, and then plug it back in.

c. Remove the key from the console. Reinsert the key into the console.

d. If the treadmill still will not run, please see the front cover of this manual.

PROBLEM: The console displays remain lit when you remove the key from the console
