IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION

THIS UNIT IS INTENDED FOR HOUSEHOLD USE ONLY

READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING THIS TREADMILL

CAUTION: Before starting any exercise program, it is recommended that you consult your physician.
WARNING: Connect this unit to a properly grounded outlet only.
DANGER: To reduce the risk of electric shock, always unplug the treadmill from the electrical outlet

immediately after using and before cleaning.

WARNING

To reduce the risk of burns, fire, electric shock, or injury to persons:

1. Use 120 volt a.c. household current on a dedicated circuit.

Grounding Instructions

This product must be grounded. If it should malfunction or breakdown, 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.
See diagram below for grounding methods.

2. It is the responsibility of the owner to ensure that all users of this treadmill are adequately informed of all warnings and
precautions.

3. The use of an extension cord with this product is not recommended. If an extension cord is needed, use a short (less than
10 feet) heavy gauge (14 gauge or better) extension cord with a three prong (grounded) plug and receptacle.

4. Never leave the treadmill unattended when plugged in. Remove the safety key and unplug the unit from the outlet when not
in use and before removing or replacing parts.

5. Never operate the treadmill if it has a damaged cord or plug, if it is not working properly, if it has been dropped, damaged,
or exposed to water. Never move the treadmill belt while the power is turned off.

6. Do not pull the treadmill by the power supply cord or use cord as a handle. Keep cord away from heated surfaces and open
flames.

7. Fitness equipment must always be installed and used on a flat surface. Do not use outdoors or near water. Do not place
the unit on a loose rug or uneven surface. It is recommended to use an equipment mat to prevent the unit from moving
while it is being used, which could possibly scratch or damage the surface of your floor. It is recommended to have a
minimum of 3 metres safe clearance on all sides of the treadmill while in use.

8. Keep the treadmill indoors, away from moisture and dust. Do not put the treadmill in a garage, covered patio or near
water.

9. Do not operate the treadmill where aerosol products are used or where oxygen is being administered.

10. Read, understand and test the emergency stop procedure before using the treadmill (see operation and adjustment on page

12)

11. Do not insert any objects into any openings.

12. Inspect and properly tighten all parts of the treadmill regularly.

13. Keep children and pets away from this equipment at all times while exercising.

14.Handicapped individuals should have medical approval and close supervision when using this treadmill.

15. Do not place hands or feet under the treadmill. Always keep hands and legs off of the treadmill when others are using it.

16. Never turn on treadmill while standing on treadbelt. Always hold the handrails while using the treadmill. Always return
the treadmill to the slowest speed to provide for safe dismount and low speed restart.

17. To disconnect, turn all controls to the off position, then remove plug from outlet.

18.Do not attempt to raise, lower or move the treadmill until it is properly assembled. See assembly on page 5 and to fold and
move the treadmill on page 19. Care must be taken when lifting or moving the equipment, so as not to injure your back.
Always use proper lifting techniques. You must use any attachments that are not recommended by the manufacturer.

19. Use the treadmill only for its intended use as described in this manual. Do not use any attachments that are not
recommended by the manufacturer.

20. User weight should not exceed 285lbs (130 kg).

21. Never allow more than one person on the treadmill at once.

22. Warm up 5 to 10 minutes before each workout and cool down 5 to 10 minutes afterward. This allows your heart rate to
gradually increase and decrease and will help prevent straining muscles.

23. Never hold your breath while exercising. Breathing should remain at a normal rate in conjunction with the level of
exercise being performed.

24. Start your program slowly and very gradually increase your speed and distance.

25. Always wear suitable clothing and footwear while exercising. Do not wear loose fitting clothing that could become
entangled with the moving parts of your treadmill. Do not walk or jog barefoot, in stocking feet or loose fitting shoes or
slippers.

26. This treadmill is intended for in-home use only. Do not use the treadmill in any commercial, rental or institutional setting.

▲WARNING: Before beginning any exercise program consult your physician. This is especially important for individuals
over the age of 35 or persons with pre-existing health problems. Read all instructions before using any fitness equipment. We

Assembly

It will take two people to assemble your unit.

Set the treadmill in a cleared area and remove all packing material. Do not dispose of the material until
your assembly is completed. Note: The underside of your treadmill’s walking belt is coated with a
lubricant. During shipping, a small amount of lubricant may be transferred to the top of the waling belt or
the shipping carton. This does not affect the treadmill’s performance. If you notice any lubricant on the
top of the walking belt, simply wipe off the lubricant with a soft cloth and a mild, non abrasive cleaner.
For the sake of familiarizing yourself with the parts identified in the instructions, first study the overview
drawing.
Assembly only requires the included wrenches.
