Note: An EXPLODED DRAWING and a PART LIST are attached in the center of this manual.

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

2. Use the treadmill only as described.

3. Place the treadmill on a level surface, with at
least eight feet of clearance behind it and two
feet on each side. Do not place the treadmill
on any surface that blocks air openings. To
protect the floor or carpet from damage, place
a mat under the treadmill.

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

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

6. Keep children under the age of 12 and pets
away from the treadmill at all times.

7. The treadmill should be used only by persons
weighing 250 pounds or less.

8. Never allow more than one person on the
treadmill at a time.

9. Wear appropriate exercise clothes when
using the treadmill. Do not wear loose clothes
that could become caught in the treadmill.
Athletic support clothes are recommended for
both men and women. Always wear athletic
shoes. Never use the treadmill with bare feet,

wearing only stockings, or in sandals.

10. When connecting the power cord (see page 8),
plug the power cord into a surge suppressor
(not included) and plug the surge suppressor
into a grounded circuit capable of carrying 15
or more amps. No other appliance should be on
the same circuit. Do not use an extension cord.

11. Use only a single-outlet surge suppressor that
meets all of the specifications described on
page 8. To purchase a surge suppressor, see
your local PROFORM dealer or call 1-800-806­3651 and order part number 146148.

12. Failure to use a properly functioning surge
suppressor could result in damage to the con­trol system of the treadmill. If the control sys­tem is damaged, the walking belt may change
speed or stop unexpectedly, which may result
in a fall and serious injury.

13. Keep the power cord and the surge suppres­sor away from heated surfaces.

14. Never move the walking belt while the power
is turned off. Do not operate the treadmill if
the power cord or plug is damaged, or if the
treadmill is not working properly. (See BE­FORE YOU BEGIN on page 4 if the treadmill is
not working properly.)

15. Never start the treadmill while you are stand­ing on the walking belt. Always hold the
handrails or upper body arms while using the
treadmill.

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

following important precautions and information before operating the treadmill.

ASSEMBLY

Assembly requires two persons. Set the treadmill in a cleared area and remove all packing materials. Do not

dispose of the packing materials until assembly is completed.

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.

Assembly requires the included allen wrenches and your own phillips screwdriver ,
9/16” wrench , wire cutters , and needlenose pliers .

To identify small parts during assembly, use the PART IDENTIFICATION CHART in the center of this manual.

1. Make sure that the power cord is unplugged.

With the help of a second person, carefully tip the
treadmill onto its left side as shown. Partially fold the
Frame (86) so that the treadmill is more stable.

Do not
fully fold the treadmill until it is completely assem­bled.

Attach four Base Pads (57) to the bottom of the Base
(69) with four 1” Tek Screws (58) (three are shown).

2. Hold one of the Uprights (73) near the Base (69), with

the holes on the indicated side. Straighten the Wire
Harness (42), and feed it into the lower end of the Upright
and out of the large hole near the upper end.

Insert two 2 1/2” Bolts (37) with 3/8” Star Washers (38)
into the bottom of the Base (69) and the lower end of the
Upright (73);

be careful not to damage the Wire

Harness (42). Firmly tighten an Upright Nut (109) onto

each Upright Bolt.

Attach the other Upright (not shown) as described
above. Note: There is not a wire harness on the left side.

Refer to the inset drawing. Clip two U-nuts (108) over
the two round holes in each of the Uprights (73) as
shown. Press an Upright Endcap (107) onto the top of
each Upright. Note: Make sure the angle of the ends of
