Important Safety Instructions 5
Proper Location for Equipment
For all equipment other than treadmills: Locate at
least 40 inches (1 meter) away from walls or furniture on either side of the equipment, and 40 inches (1 meter) away from objects behind the equipment.
For treadmills: Locate at least 40 inches (1 meter)
away from walls or furniture on either side of the treadmill, and at least 80 inches (2 meters) away from objects behind the treadmill.
Important: These location standards should also be used when positioning equipment away from sources of heat, such as radiators, heat registers, and stoves. Avoid temperature extremes.
Keep equipment away from water and moisture. Avoid
dropping anything on or spilling anything inside the equipment to prevent electric shock or damage to the electronics.
When using the treadmill, always attach the safety clip to
your clothing before beginning your workout. Failure to use the safety clip may pose a greater risk of injury in the event of a fall.
Do not operate electrically powered equipment in damp
or wet locations.
Never operate this equipment if it has a damaged cord or
plug, if it is not working properly, or if it has been dropped, damaged, or exposed to water. Call for service immediately if any of these conditions exist.
Maintain the equipment to keep it in good working
condition, as described in the Maintenance section of the assembly and maintenance guide. Inspect the equipment for incorrect, worn, or loose components, and then correct, replace or tighten prior to use.
If you plan to move the equipment, obtain help and use
proper lifting techniques.
Equipment Weight Restrictions: Do not use the treadmill
if you weigh more than 500 pounds (225 kg). If you weigh more than 350 pounds (160 kg), do not run on the treadmill. For all other fitness equipment, the weight limit is 350 pounds (160 kg).

Important Safety Instructions 9

Electrical Recommendations: 120 V and 240 V Treadmills

Note: This is a recommendation only. NEC (National Electric Code) guidelines or local region electric codes must be followed.
You should have received a power cable that meets your local electrical code requirements along with the equipment. Precor treadmills must be connected to a 20 amp individual branch circuit that can be shared only with one PVS. If you need additional help with the power connections contact your Precor authorized dealer.
Important: An individual branch circuit provides a hot conductor
and neutral conductor to a receptacle. The conductors must not be looped, "daisy-chained", or connected to any other conductors. The circuit must be grounded according to NEC guidelines or local region electric codes.

10 Operating and Maintaining the P30 Console

Electrical Recommendations: All Equipment Excluding Treadmills

Note: This is a recommendation only. NEC (National Electric Code) guidelines or local region electric codes must be followed.
For equipment fitted with a P80 console or Personal Viewing System (PVS) screen a separate power connection is required. For a 20 amp branch circuit up to 10 screens can be connected. If the branch circuit has any other devices plugged into the circuit the number of screens must be reduced by the wattage of the other devices.
Note: The typical splitter power cords that have IEC-320 C13 and C14 plugs have a recommended maximum capacity of five screens.
