The heart rate control console presents many user-friendly features. There are displayed messages to guide you
through every step of the programming and workout.
NOTE: To view pulse or % of maximum heart rate, you must wear the heart rate transmitter chest strap.
METRIC TO MILES
You have the option to change from miles to Km and vise versa by pressing FAST + SLOW + 0 (three keys at the
same time).
WIRELESS HEART RATE CONSOLE
The treadmill features wireless heart rate monitoring, the most advanced technology to date for accurate read out
of your heart beat. You must wear the heart rate transmitter chest strap so that the contact surface is next to your
skin directly under your heart to pick up the pulse signals from your heart. To ensure positive readout, make sure
the contact surface is moist. When the console picks up your heart beat signal, the little heart under the viewing
screen will light up and blink to your heartbeat.
PERCENT OF MAX HEART RATE
For this information to display on the viewing screen, you must wear the heart rate transmitter chest strap and also
accurately enter your age. Maximum heart rate is based on the calculation of 220 minus your age. Then based on
the pulse picked up from your chest strap, the console will calculate your heart beat as a percent of your maximum
heart rate. This is the best indication of how hard you are working your heart and lungs.
VIEW
During workout, the viewing screen will show a track making progress as well as time counting down. This gives
you a visual as well as a numeric value of how much time is remaining of your workout. Any time during the
workout, you may also choose to view other data. You may SCAN all values or chose to view: Time, Distance,
Calories, Pulse, or percent of maximum heart rate. Speed and Elevation will be on constant display.
COOL DOWN
Whenever you are ready to stop your workout, even if you are in the middle of a program, be sure to use the COOL
DOWN program. When the cool down button is pressed, it will automatically interrupt the current workout and go
directly into cool down routine, which is programmed for four minutes. The first two minutes will reduce speed and
elevation to about 50% of your last setting. The last two minutes will reduce speed and elevation about another
50%.
SPEED ADJUSTMENTS
During workout, for minor adjustments, use FAST and SLOW buttons to change at increments of 0.1 Km/H. Or you
may press SPEED and use numeric keys to enter the new speed value. Then press ENTER to accept the new
value.
ELEVATION ADJUSTMENTS
During workout, for minor adjustments, use UP and DOWN buttons to change at increments of 0.5% grade. Or you
may press ELEVATION and use numeric keys to enter the new elevation value. Then press ENTER to accept the
new value.
PAUSE
If STOP key is pressed during workout, the program is suspended. The display will show “workout stopped” and
start to count down from three minutes. During pause no keys other than STOP and START will function. If user
presses START during pause (within three minutes), then program resumes where it was stopped. If user presses
STOP again during pause, program will end. Or if after three minutes without any button pressed, program will
automatically end.
END OF WORKOUT
When you have completed your workout or if you have stopped your workout, the elevation will automatically return
to 0% grade. Then the display will show “ CONGRATULATIONS! ” “ GOOD JOB! ”. Then it will display the totals for
exercise time spent, distance, and calories burned for that workout. The workout stats will repeat twice, then
console will go back to idle mode ready for the next user workout.

(6.4 kph) motor speed using the UP Arrow.
3. If the RUNNING BELT has moved to the right, turn the ri ght
TENSION BOLT 1/4 turn clockwise and the left TENSION
BOLT1/4 turn countercl ockwise to start the RUNNING BELT
tracking back to the center of the REAR ROLLER. If the
RUNNING BELT has moved to the left, turn the left TENSION BO LT 1/4 turn clockwise and the right T ENSIO N
BOLT 1/4 turn counterclockwise to start the RUNNING BELT tracking back to the center of the REAR ROLLER.
4. Repeat this adjustm ent until the runn ing belt appears centered. The b elt should be e qual distance (B) on both
sides of the rear roller.
5. Allow the unit to operate for several minutes to see that the belt remains centered.
6. When proper belt tension is completed work the silicon into the running belt by walking on the unit for 3 to 5
minutes covering the entire surface of the deck and running belt. Clear away any silicon that may have spread
to the outside of the running belt.
NOTE: During the adjustment above, DO NOT exceed one full turn of the adjusting screws in either
direction.
7. Enter the Manual program and run unit at 2 mph (3.2kph) for five minutes, DO NOT run on the BELT.
8. With the RUNNING BELT speed at 2 mph (3.2 kph), begin walking on the treadmill. Tightly grasp the
HANDLEBARS and attempt to stall the RUNNING BELT. If the RUNNING BELT slips, continue to Step 9. If it
does not slip, the tension is correct.
9. Stop the treadmill and alternately turn the RUNNING BELT TENSIONION BOLTS (A) 1/4 turn clock-wise to
tension (See Tracking (Centering) an Existing or New Running Belt on previous page). Repeat Step 3 and
Step 4 until slipping is eliminated. DO NOT EXCEED ONE FULL TURN!

CALIBRATION
1. To calibrate power up the unit and incline the unit to 10% of
incline.
2. 3 window display key stroke/ UP + DOWN + 9 keys at the same
time
3. 5 window display key stroke/ STOP and ELEVATION DOWN
4. This will calibrate the incline motor. Incline motor should go all the
way down to 0% grade. If no error 5 appears on the console, then
the treadmill is good.
NOTE: If error 5 appears, then it means that the controller
remembers a different value, so we need to bypass the
controller to calibrate the incline motor. In that case, we have
to disconnect the incline sensor cable to bypass the old
memory (Please refer to WIRING DIAGRAM – Section IV, page 9). Then calibration can be done
properly.
5 Test unit lift functions to make sure everything is correct.

ELECTRONIC OVERVIEW – MOTOR CONTROLLER PCB
Functional Description
The Motor Controller PCBs are designed to act as an interface between the Drive motor, Display Console, and the
Inline Motor. The desired belt speed and elevation is sent down to the motor controller and incline motor via the
users selected input into the console. The motor is driven by a fixed frequency variable duty cycle signal. If an error
condition is detected the main power relay receives its bus voltage from the console through the emergency pull
switch. This relay can be energized by having the emergency pull switch is in its proper place. Opening of the relay
does not remove power to the console or the logic on the motor control board, but will interrupt power to the incline
and drive motors.
