Introduction

Congratulations! You’ve made a very smart investment! Your Executive Trainer treadmill is a high-quality fitness tool that
will give you years and years of fitness benefits.

One of the great things about the Executive Trainer is its diversity of applications. It’s terrific for just starting out on a
walking program or easy jog. In the case of a veteran runner, it’s the exact prescription needed for precision interval training
to lower your 10K time.

Regardless of the application, unpleasant weather is not an obstacle. Cold, windy, wet days will never discourage you again,
nor will the heat and humidity of the summer months. If you’re the type of person that likes to do two things at once, now
you can watch your favorite program on TV or keep an eye on your kids and take care of your health at the same time.

Did you know that your treadmill is an excellent stair-climbing simulator? Stair climbing has become a popular exercise
today. Your treadmill, when elevated, is a very good climber with more safety and comfort than a dedicated stair climber!

Your treadmill was a smart purchase, but you already knew that, so let’s move on and get started.

INSTRUCTION MANUAL

Be sure to familiarize yourself with this manual. Look it over carefully. Be sure you understand the control panel operation
before using the treadmill.

WARRANTY INFORMATION

Fill out your warranty registration card and mail it in today. Landice backs your treadmill with a strong warranty.
For the factory to respond to any problems you may have, we need your warranty information on file. Do it today.

Landice will send you a complimentary Landice T-shirt upon receipt of your warranty registration card.

SELECTING A LOCATION

Install your treadmill in a climate controlled room.

Allow a minimum clearance of 18 inches on each side of the treadmill.
Allow a minimum clearance of 4 feet at the rear of the treadmill.

Failure to leave ample clearance at the rear of the treadmill could result in the user becoming trapped between the treadmill
and the wall should the user accidentally trip and fall while exercising.

Be sure the line cord has plenty of slack and does not get pinched underneath the treadmill when the treadmill elevates up
and down. Make sure the treadmill is plugged into a dedicated line.

BEFORE YOU BEGIN

Following are some things you should do before you start to exercise on your treadmill:

Assembly Instructions

• On L7 treadmills it is necessary
to remove the bolts which hold
the treadmill to the pallet.

• Start by removing the top bolts.

• Lay the treadmill on the ground,
and then remove the bottom
bolts by placing the treadmill on
your toolbox.

• With the bolts removed, the
treadmill will be free to move
around in the box.

• Remove the metal strapping
around the box.

• Using a razor blade knife, cut the
box just above the bottom row
of brass staples along all sides
of the box.

•

DO NOT cut through the
center of the box, as you could
damage the treadmill.

• Remove the box and discard.

• The treadmill components
are held together with plastic
strapping.

• Carefully cut and remove the
strapping. Remove the treadmill
upright and accessory boxes
from the treadmill. Lift the
treadmill off the pallet.

• Carefully remove the upright
side cover from the upright
assembly.

• Slide the upright down onto the
8-side frame bolts.

• Tighten bolts with a 7/16”
extended socket.

• The handrail mounting bolts
have been threaded into the rails
for shipping. Remove them.

• Attach both handrails by first
hand-starting the bolts through
the upright and then using a
1/2” socket. Leave about 1/8”
of slack.

(DO NOT TIGHTEN FLUSH TO
SURFACE).

• After mounting both handrails,
gently lower the curved crossbar
into position between them.

• Each end of the crossbar
should cover the two smaller
access holes that are cut into
the handrails.

• Leave contact heart rate
connection harness hanging
for now.

STEP 1:

Unbolt treadmill from pallet

STEP 2:

Cut the box off the pallet

STEP 3:

Unstrap the treadmill

STEP 4:

Secure upright to frame

STEP 5: Prepare to install hand
rails (Med Rails: the word
handrails refers to the 4”
clamps for steps 5-8)

STEP 6:

Place crossbar

• Using an extended 1/2” socket,
carefully guide the 2 inch bolt
with lock washer into the big
access hole in the side of the
handrail.

• Once the bolt reaches the
crossbar, tighten it.

• Repeat this step with the other
handrail.

STEP 7:

Secure crossbar

• Press the dome plugs into the
large access holes on the side of
the handrails.

• Finish tightening the handrail
bolts from STEP 5.

• Note: Med Rails go to Appendix

A on page 30.

STEP 8:

Secure hand rail

Assembly Instructions

• Feed the contact heart rate
harness through the access hole
in the inside of the left upright
(insert strain relief provided).
Feed harness up into the
control panel.

• Pull back the membrane and
connect harness to white 3-pin
connector on side of display
board.

• Unscrew the unused screw on
the top of the upright where the
contact harness enters the con­trol panel.

• Feed the screw through the
green grounding wire eyelet and
rescrew it back into place.

• Put the membrane back into
place.

• Carefully align the upright cover
to upright. Working from top to
bottom, snap the upright cover
into place.

• Check the tension on the drive
belt by placing the drive belt
between your thumb and
forefinger and twisting.

• The proper twist is 45˚. If the
belt needs to be adjusted use a
7/16” socket and turn the bolt
underneath the motor pan
attached to the motor’s
hook screw.

STEP 9:

Connect contact bar

STEP 10:

Ground contact bar

STEP 11: Snap upright covers
into place

STEP 13:

Check drive belt tension

• Press the plastic end cap into
the upright carefully fitting the
plastic pins into the small bosses
in the aluminum.

• Align the upright cover beneath
the end cap and install the
Phillips head screw.

• Tighten the Phillips head
screw until side cover aligns
with endcap

(Do not over-tighten).

STEP 12:

Install upright end cap

HOME TREADMILL:

• Route the wire harness
underneath the elevation motor
and secure with harness restraint
clip provided. Plug connector
into circuit board until it snaps
into place.

COMMERCIAL TREADMILL:

• Route the wire harness behind
the elevation motor and secure
with harness restraint clip
provided. Plug connector
into circuit board until it snaps
into place.

STEP 14:

Route the wire harness

• The treadbelt is tracked and
tensioned via the take-up
screws located at the back of the
treadmill.

• Check the tension of the
treadbelt. At proper tension you
should be able to place your
hand between the belt and deck
and reach the center of the
treadmill. If you cannot reach
the center, the belt is too tight
and must be loosened. If your
hand reaches past the center the
belt is too loose and must be
tightened.

STEP 15

Adjust the treadbelt

• Remove the black motor cover
screws in the side of the frame.
Place motor cover onto
treadmill.

• Attach motor cover with Phillips
head screws provided. Place
rubber spacer between cover and
frame.

• Plug treadmill into a dedicated
15A outlet. Walk on treadmill at
