CONDITIONING GUIDELINES

The following guidelines will help you to plan your exercise program. RememberÑthese are general guidelines only. For more detailed exercise information, obtain a reputable book or consult your physician.

EXERCISE INTENSITY

Whether your goal is to burn fat or to strengthen your cardiovascular system, the key to achieving the desired results is to exercise with the proper intensity. The proper intensity level can be found by using your heart rate as a guide. The chart below shows recommended heart rates for fat burning and aerobic exercise.

To find the proper heart rate for you, first find your age near the bottom of the chart (ages are rounded off to the nearest ten years). Next, find the three numbers above your age. The three numbers define your Òtraining zone.Ó The lower two numbers are recommended heart rates for fat burning; the higher number is the recommended heart rate for aerobic exercise.

To measure your heart rate during exercise, use the pulse sensor on the handrail. If your heart rate is too high or too low, adjust the speed and incline of the treadmill.

Fat Burning

To burn fat effectively, you must exercise at a relatively

low intensity level for a sustained period of time. During the first few minutes of exercise, your body uses easily accessible carbohydrate calories for en-

ergy. Only after the first few minutes does your body begin to use stored fat calories for energy. If your goal is to burn fat, adjust the speed and incline of the treadmill until your heart rate is near the lowest number in your training zone. It may also be helpful to use incline program 2 or 3 or speed program 2 or 3 on the console (see pages 10 to 12).

For maximum fat burning, adjust the speed and incline of the treadmill until your heart rate is near the middle number in your training zone.

Aerobic Exercise

If your goal is to strengthen your cardiovascular system, your exercise must be Òaerobic.Ó Aerobic exercise is activity that requires large amounts of oxygen for prolonged periods of time. This increases the demand on the heart to pump blood to the muscles, and on the lungs to oxygenate the blood. For aerobic exercise, adjust the speed and incline of the treadmill until your heart rate is near the highest number in your training zone. It may also be helpful to use incline program 1 or speed program 1 (see pages 10 to 12).

WORKOUT GUIDELINES

Each workout should include the following three parts:

A Warm-upÑStart each workout with 5 to 10 minutes of stretching and light exercise. A proper warm-up increases your body temperature, heart rate and circulation in preparation for exercise.

Training Zone ExerciseÑAfter warming up, increase the intensity of your exercise until your pulse is in your training zone for 20 to 60 minutes. Note: During the first few weeks of your exercise program, do not keep your pulse in your training zone for longer than 20 minutes.

A Cool-downÑFinish each workout with 5 to 10 minutes of stretching to cool down. This will increase the flexibility of your muscles and will help prevent post-exercise problems.

Exercise Frequency

To maintain or improve your condition, complete three workouts each week, with at least one day of rest between workouts. After a few months, you may complete up to five workouts each week if desired. The key

WARNING:Before beginning this

or any exercise program, consult your physician. This is especially important for individuals over the age of 35 or individuals with preexisting health problems.

The pulse sensor is not a medical device. Various factors, including your movement, may affect the accuracy of heart rate readings. The sensor is intended only as an exercise aid in determining heart rate trends in general.

4. SYMPTOM: The displays of the console do not function properly

a. Remove the key from the console and UNPLUG THE POWER

CORD. Remove the screws from the hood and carefully remove

the hood. Locate the Reed Switch (26) and the Magnet (107) on the left side of the Pulley (12). Turn the Pulley until the Magnet is aligned with the Reed Switch. Make sure that the gap between the Magnet and the Reed Switch is about 1/8Ó (3 mm). If necessary, loosen the Screw (86) and move the Reed Switch (26) slightly. Retighten the Screw. Re-attach the hood, and run the treadmill for a few minutes to check for a correct speed reading.

5. SYMPTOM: The walking belt slows when walked on

a. If an extension cord is needed, use only a 3-conductor, 14-gauge (1mm2) cord that is no longer than 5 feet

(1.5 meters).

b. If the walking belt is overtightened, treadmill performance may de-

crease and the walking belt may be permanently damaged. Remove the key and UNPLUG THE POWER CORD. Using the allen wrench, turn both rear roller adjustment bolts counterclockwise, 1/4 of a turn. When the walking belt is properly tightened, you should be able to lift each side of the walking belt 3 to 4 inches (5 to 7 cm) off the walking platform. Be careful to keep the walking belt centred. Plug in the power cord, insert the key and run the treadmill for a few minutes. Repeat until the walking belt is properly tightened.

6. SYMPTOM: The walking belt is off-centre

a. If the walking belt has shifted to the left, first remove the key

and UNPLUG THE POWER CORD. Using the allen wrench, turn the left rear roller adjustment bolt clockwise, and the right bolt counterclockwise, 1/4 of a turn each. Be careful not to overtighten the walking belt. Plug in the power cord, insert the key and run the treadmill for a few minutes. Repeat until the walking belt is centred.

b. If the walking belt has shifted to the right, first remove the key

and UNPLUG THE POWER CORD. Using the allen wrench, turn the left rear roller adjustment bolt counterclockwise, and the right bolt clockwise, 1/4 of a turn each. Be careful not to overtighten the walking belt. Plug in the power cord, insert the key and run the treadmill for a few minutes. Repeat until the walking belt is centred.

7. SYMPTOM: The walking belt slips when walked on

a. If the walking belt slips when walked on, first remove the key and

UNPLUG THE POWER CORD. Using the allen wrench, turn both rear roller adjustment bolts clockwise, 1/4 of a turn. When the walking belt is correctly tightened, you should be able to lift each side of the walking belt 3 to 4 inches (5 to 7 cm) off the walking platform. Be careful to keep the walking belt centred. Plug in the power cord, insert the key and carefully walk on the treadmill for a few minutes. Repeat until the walking belt is properly tightened.

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. The treadmill can be assembled without tools.

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 normal 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.

1. With the help of a second person, carefully raise the Uprights (15) until the treadmill is in the position shown.

2. Make sure that the Lock Knob Sleeve (93) is fully inserted into the left Upright (15). Remove the Lock Knob (92) from the Lock Pin (97). Make sure that the Lock Pin Collar (95) and the Spring (94) are on the Lock Pin. Insert the Lock Pin into the left Upright (15) and tighten the Lock Knob onto it.

3. Make sure that all parts are tightened before you use the treadmill. Keep the included allen wrench for adjusting the walking belt (see MAINTENANCE AND TROUBLE-SHOOTING on pages 14 and 15). Place a mat under the treadmill to protect the floor or carpet.
