11. Failure to use a properly functioning surge
uppressor could result in damage to the con-
s
trol 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.
12. Keep the power cord and the surge suppres-
sor away from heated surfaces.
13. 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
TROUBLESHOOTING if the treadmill is not
working properly.)
14. Read, understand, and test the emergency
stop procedure before using the treadmill (see
HOW TO TURN ON THE POWER on page 12).
15. Never start the treadmill while you are stand-
ing on the walking belt. Always hold the
handrails while using the treadmill.
16. The treadmill is capable of high speeds.
Adjust the speed in small increments to avoid
sudden jumps in speed.
17. The pulse sensor is not a medical device.
Various factors, including the user's movement, may affect the accuracy of heart rate

readings. The pulse sensor is intended only
as an exercise aid in determining heart rate
trends in general.
9. When connecting the power cord (see page 10),
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.
10. Use only a single-outlet surge suppressor
that meets all of the specifications described
on page 10. To purchase a surge suppressor,
see your local PROFORM dealer or call the
toll-free telephone number on the front cover
of this manual and order part number 146148,
or see your local electronics store.
18. Never leave the treadmill unattended while it
is running. Always remove the key, unplug
the power cord, and move the reset/off circuit
breaker to the off position when the treadmill
is not in use. (See the drawing on page 5 for
the location of the circuit breaker.)
19. Do not attempt to raise, lower, or move the
treadmill until it is properly assembled. (See
FOLD AND MOVE

treadmills.
For your benefit, read this manual carefully before
you use the treadmill. If you have questions after
reading this manual, please see the front cover of this
manual. To help us assist you, note the product model

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 hex keys and your own phillips screwdriver ,
adjustable wrench and wire cutters .
For help identifying assembly hardware, see the drawings below. Note: The assembly hardware and other
small parts are packaged in separate part bags. If a part is not in the part bags, check to see if the part has
been preattached. To avoid damaging plastic parts, do not use power tools for assembly.
1. With the help of a second person, carefully raise the
Uprights (109) to the position shown.
Insert one of the Extension Legs (105) into the treadmill
as shown. Make sure that the Extension Leg is turned so
the Base Pad (100) is beneath it. Note: It may be helpful
to tip the Uprights (109) forward as you insert the
Extension Leg.
Insert the other Extension Leg (not shown) in the same
way.

HOW TO PLUG IN THE POWER CORD
IMPORTANT: Never apply sil-
DANGER: Improper connection
of the equipment-grounding conductor can
result in an increased risk of electric shock.
Check with a qualified electrician or serviceman if you are in doubt as to whether the
product is properly grounded. Do not modify
the plug provided with the product—if it will
not fit the outlet, have a proper outlet
installed by a qualified electrician.
Your treadmill, like any other type of sophisticated
electronic equipment, can be seriously damaged by
sudden voltage changes in your home’s power.
Voltage surges, spikes, and noise interference can
result from weather conditions or from other appliances
being turned on or off. To decrease the possibility of
your treadmill being damaged, always use a surge
suppressor with your treadmill (see drawing 1 at
the right). To purchase a surge suppressor, see
your local PROFORM dealer or call the toll-free
telephone number on the front cover of this manual and order part number 146148, or see your local
electronics store.
tric shock. This product is equipped with a cord having
an equipment-grounding conductor and a grounding
plug.
Plug the power cord into a surge suppressor,
and plug the surge suppressor into an appropriate
utlet that is properly installed and grounded in
o
accordance with all local codes and ordinances.
Important: The treadmill is not compatible with
GFCI-equipped outlets.
This product is for use on a nominal 120-volt circuit,
and has a grounding plug that looks like the plug illustrated in drawing 1 below. A temporary adapter that
looks like the adapter illustrated in drawing 2 may be
used to connect the surge suppressor to a 2-pole
receptacle as shown in drawing 2 if a properly
grounded outlet is not available.

Surge Suppressor
Use only a single-outlet surge suppressor that is
UL 1449 listed as a transient voltage surge suppressor (TVSS). The surge suppressor must have a
UL suppressed voltage rating of 400 volts or less
and a minimum surge dissipation of 450 joules.
The surge suppressor must be electrically rated for
120 volts AC and 15 amps. There must be a moni
toring light on the surge suppressor to indicate
whether it is functioning properly. 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, accelerate or stop unexpectedly, which may result in a fall and serious injury.
