Note: An EXPLODED DRAWING and a PART LIST are attached in the center of this manual.
1. It is the responsibility of the owner to ensure
that all users of this treadmill are adequately
informed of all warnings and precautions.
2. Use the treadmill only as described.
3. Place the treadmill on a level surface, with at
least 2.5 m (8 ft.) of clearance behind it and
0.5 m (2 ft.) on each side. Do not place the
treadmill on any surface that blocks air open-
ings. To protect the floor or carpet from dam-
age, place a mat under the treadmill.
4. Keep the treadmill indoors, away from mois-
ture and dust. Do not put the treadmill in a
garage or covered patio, or near water.
5. Do not operate the treadmill where aerosol
products are used or where oxygen is being
administered.
6. Keep children under the age of 12 and pets
away from the treadmill at all times.
7. The treadmill should be used only by per-
sons weighing 115 kg (250 lbs.) or less.
8. Never allow more than one person on the
treadmill at a time.
9. Wear appropriate exercise clothes when
using the treadmill. Do not wear loose
clothes that could become caught in the
treadmill. Athletic support clothes are recom-
mended for both men and women. Always
wear athletic shoes. Never use the treadmill
with bare feet, wearing only stockings, or in
sandals.
10. When connecting the power cord (see page
7), plug the power cord into a surge suppres-
sor (not included) and plug the surge sup-
pressor into a grounded circuit capable of
carrying 15 or more amps. No other appli-
ance should be on the same circuit. Do not
use an extension cord.
11. Use only a CUL-listed surge suppressor of
450 joules minimum surge dissipation with
voltage rating of 400 volts or less, rated at 15
amps, with a 1 mm2 (14-gauge) cord of 1.5 m
(5 ft.) or less in length. Do not use an exten-
sion cord.
12. Failure to use a properly functioning surge
suppressor could result in damage to the
control system of the treadmill. If the control
system is damaged, the walking belt may
change speed or stop unexpectedly, which
may result in a fall and serious injury.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of burns, fire, electric shock, or injury to persons, read
the following important precautions and information before operating the treadmill.

ASSEMBLY
Assembly requires two people. Set the treadmill in a cleared area and remove all packing materials. Do not
dispose of the packing materials until assembly is completed. Assembly requires the included allen wrench
and your own phillips screwdriver and wire cutters .
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 nor-
mal condition and does not affect treadmill performance. 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.
