SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

Thank you for purchasing our product. Even though we go to great efforts to ensure the quality of each
product, occasional errors and/or omissions do occur. In any event should you find this product to be defective
or missing a part please contact our Customer Service Department. Your Free Spirit treadmill was designed
and built for optimum safety. However, certain precautions apply whenever you use your treadmill.
Be sure to read the entire manual before assembly and operation. Also, please note the following safety
precautions:
DANGER: To reduce the risk of electric shock, always unplug the treadmill from the electrical outlet
immediately after using and before cleaning.

1. Read OWNER OPERATING MANUAL and all accompanying literature and follow it carefully before
using your treadmill.

2. If dizziness, nausea, chest pains, or any other abnormal symptoms are experienced while using this
equipment, STOP the workout at once. CONSULT A PHYSICIAN IMMEDIATELY.

3. Never leave the treadmill unattended when plugged in. Unplug from the outlet when not in use and before
removing or replacing parts.

4. Never operate the treadmill if it has a damaged cord or plug, if it is not working properly, if it has been
dropped, damaged, or exposed to water.

5. Do not pull the treadmill by the power supply cord or use cord as a handle. Keep cord away from heated
surfaces and open flames.

6. Fitness equipment must always be installed and used on a flat surface. Do not use outdoors or near water.

7. Do not insert any objects into any openings.

8. Keep children and pets away from this equipment at all times while exercising.

9. Handicapped individuals should have medical approval and close supervision when using this treadmill.

10. Do not place hands or feet under the treadmill. Always keep hands and legs off of the treadmill when
others are using it.

11. Never turn on treadmill while standing on treadbelt. Always return the treadmill to slow speed to provide
for safe dismount and low speed restart.

12. To disconnect, turn all controls to the off position, then remove plug from outlet.

13. Use the treadmill only for it’s intended use as described in this manual.

14. Warm up 5 to 10 minutes before each workout and cool down 5 to 10 minutes afterward. This allows your
heart rate to gradually increase and decrease and will help prevent straining muscles.

15. Never hold your breath while exercising. Breathing should remain at a normal rate in conjunction with the
level of exercise being performed.

16. Start your program slowly and very gradually increase your speed and distance.

17. Always wear suitable clothing and footwear while exercising. Do not wear loose fitting clothing that could
become entangled with the moving parts of your treadmill.

18. Do not walk or jog barefoot, in stocking feet or loose fitting shoes or slippers.

19. Care must be taken when lifting or moving the equipment, so as not to injure your back. Always use
proper lifting techniques.

WARNING: Before beginning any exercise program consult your physician. This is especially important for
individuals over the age of 35 or persons with pre-existing health problems. Read all instructions before using
any fitness equipment. We assume no responsibility form personal injury or property damage sustained by or
through the use of this product.

c- Heart Rate Control H1-H2: H1= (200-age) * 60% = Target heart rate
H2= (200-age) * 80% = Target heart rate

Select your heart rate program by pressing the “program” button until the H1 or H2 is displayed. Press the
“enter” button to set the time, if you do not set the time range the monitor will count up. Press “enter” to set
“age”, use the “fast” or “slow” button to change the range. Press “enter” button to set your heart rate target,
the range is between 60 to 220. Press “start” button to begin your program.
Note: if the computer does not have the heart rate input, the LCD will display

” ♥? ” and the will not change position until the computer receives the heart rate from the handpulse or chest

strap. If your heart rate does not reach the set heart rate value, the treadmill will increase the incline height
automatically till you reach the set value, then decrease the incline height.

How to wear your wireless strap transmitter

Attach one end of the transmitter to one end of the elastic strap using the locking parts.
Adjust the strap as tightly as possible as long as the strap remains comfortable.
Position the transmitter (middle of the unit) in the middle of your body facing away from your chest. Some
people must position the transmitter slightly left of the centre. Attach the final end of the elastic strap to the
end of the transmitter by inserting the round end and using the locking parts.
Position the transmitter immediately below the pectoral muscles.
Sweat is the best conductor to measure very minute heart beat electrical signals. However, plain water can
also be used to pre-wet the electrodes (2 black square areas on the reverse side of the belt and either side of
transmitter). It is recommended that you wear the transmitter strap a few minutes before your work out.
Some users, because of body chemistry, have a more difficult time in achieving a strong, steady signal.
Your workout must be within range – distance between transmitter/receiver – to achieve a strong steady
signal. The length may vary, but generally stay close to the monitor.
Note: Wearing the transmitter directly on bare skin assures you of proper operation. If you wish you may
wear the transmitter over a shirt, but moisten the areas of the shirt that the electrodes will rest upon.
The transmitter is automatically activated when it detects activity from the user’s heart, and deactivates when
it does not receive any activity. Although the transmitter is water resistant, moisture can have the effect of
creating false signals. Take precautions to completely dry the transmitter after use to prolong battery life.
The replacement battery is “Lithium battery CR2032, 3V”.

d- User program (U1-U3): Press the “program” button until the U1-U3 is displayed. You can set your
own profile program up to a maximum of three users. Press the “enter” button to set the time, range is from
10:00 to 90:00. Press the “enter” button to set your speed and incline value for each of the 20 segments.
Each segment includes speed and incline values, using the “fast” and “slow” button for speed and the “up”
and “down” button for the incline. You will need to press the “enter” button after each value is set. Press
the “start” button to start your program. Note: the computer will automatically save your profiles.

MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS

CLEANING

Care has been taken to assure that your treadmill has been properly adjusted and lubricated at the factory. It is
not recommended that the user attempt service on the internal components instead seek service from an
authorized service center. However, from time-to-time the outer surfaces may appear dull or dirty, following
the instructions listed below will restore and preserve the original finish.

Note: Always unplug your treadmill prior to cleaning in order to avoid electrical hazard or shock.

1. Cleaning metal surfaces may be accomplished by using a soft cotton or terry cloth rag with a light

application of car wax. Do not use aerosol sprays or pump bottles as they may deposit wax upon the
walking or computer surface.

2. Under no circumstances are you to use ammonia, oils, silicones or any other compounds on the rubberized

walking surface. The use of such materials may cause serious injury to the body and/or deteriorate the
performance of the walking surface. Only clean the rubberized walking surface with a damp cloth (water
only).

3. From time-to-time the computer surface may collect dust or finger prints. The use of harsh chemicals will

destroy the protective coating and cause a static build up that will damage the components. This surface
may be cleaned with specially prepared chemicals found in most computer supply stores especially made
for anti-static surfaces. It is strongly recommended that you purchase such a cleaning compound.

21

MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS

TREADMILL LUBRICATION

Your treadmill should require little maintenance other then periodically applying lubricant. Lubricating
under the treadbelt will ensure superior performance and extend its life expectancy.

HOW TO CHECK TREADBELT FOR PROPER LUBRICATION

Lift one side of the treadbelt and feel the top surface of the treadboard
If the surface is slick to the touch, then no further lubrication is required

If the surface is dry to the touch, apply one packet of lubricant or half of the bottle of lubricant.

HOW TO APPLY LUBRICANT

1. Lift one side of treadbelt.

2. Pour one half of the lubricant bottle under the center of the treadbelt on the top surface of the treadboard

3. Walk on the treadmill at a slow speed for 3 to 5 minutes to evenly distribute lubricant.
NOTE: DO NOT over lubricate treadboard. Any excess lubricant that comes out should be wiped off.

IMPORTANT: ONLY USE HALF THE BOTTLE OF LUBRICANT PER APPLICATION
LUBRICATION SCHEDULE

1. After the first 25 hours of use (2-3 months) apply one half bottle of lubricant

2. Every 50 hours of use (5-8 months) apply one half bottle of lubricant

We recommend that you use:

LUBE-N-Walk™ Treadmill Lubrication Kit, available from Sears parts and service.

22

RESET SWITCH RESETTING

If your treadmill looses power or will not start, check the reset switch located on the front of the motor cover.
If the white tab of the reset switch is not showing then the reset switch has not been tripped.
If the white tab of the reset switch is showing, the reset switch has tripped.

To reset the reset switch:

Remove the safety clip on console.
Press white tab of the reset switch in until it snaps back into place.

If the reset switch continues to trip - see treadbelt adjustment and treadbelt lubrication

FUSE REPLACEMENT

If your treadmill looses power or will not start, check the fuse located on the motor controller or the incline
controller.

DANGER: Turn the power switch off and unplug the treadmill to reduce the risk of an electric shock

Remove the motor cover
Remove and replace the fuse on the motor controller
Replace the motor cover

SPEED SENSOR ADJUSTMENT

If the monitor does not display speed or distance the speed sensor and magnet may be misaligned. Follow
these step to check and realign.
Remove the motor cover
Check the spacing and alignment between the magnet on the right side of the front roller and the speed sensor
on the frame. The spacing must be 1/8”.
Loosened screw and slide speed sensor in or out of clamp.
Retighten screw
Replace the motor cover

TRAINING GUIDELINES

Exercise is one of the most important factors in the overall health of an individual. Listed among its
benefits are:

 Increased capacity for physical work (strength endurance)
 Increased cardiovascular (heart and arteries/veins) and respiratory efficiency
 Decreased risk of coronary heart disease
 Changes in body metabolism, e.g. losing weight
 Delaying the physiological effects of age
 Physiological effects, e.g. reduction in stress, increase in self-confidence, etc.

Basic Components of Physical Fitness

There are four all encompassing components of physical fitness and we need to briefly define each and
clarify its role.

Strength is the capacity of a muscle to exert a force against resistance. Strength contributes to power and
speed and is of great importance to a majority of sports people.

Muscular Endurance is the capacity to exert a force repeatedly over a period of time, e.g. it is the capacity
of your legs to carry you 10 Km without stopping.

Flexibility is the range of motion about a joint. Improving flexibility involves the stretching of muscles and
tendons to maintain or increase suppleness, and provides increased resistance to muscle injury or soreness.

Cardio-Respiratory Endurance is the most essential component of physical fitness. It is the efficient
functioning of the heart and lungs.

Aerobic Fitness
The largest amount of oxygen that you can use per minute during exercise is called your maximum oxygen
uptake (MVo2). This is often referred to as your aerobic capacity.

The effort that you can exert over a prolonged period of time is limited by your ability to deliver oxygen to
the working muscles. Regular vigorous exercise produces a training effect that can increase your aerobic
capacity by as much as 20 to 30%. An increased MVO2 indicates an increased ability of the heart to pump
blood, of the lungs to ventilate oxygen and of the muscles to take up oxygen.

Anaerobic Training

This means “without oxygen” and is the output of energy when the oxygen supply is insufficient to meet
the body’s long term energy demands. (For example, 100 meter sprint).

The Training Threshold

This is the minimum level of exercise which is required to produce significant improvements in any
physical fitness parameter.

Progression
As your become fitter, a higher intensity of exercise is required to create an overload and therefore provide
continued improvement

Overload
This is where you exercise at a level above that which can be carried out comfortably. The intensity,
duration and frequency of exercise should be above the training threshold and should be gradually
increased as the body adapts to the increasing demands. As your fitness level improves, the training
threshold should be raised. Working through your program and gradually increasing the overload factor is
important.

24

Reversibility

If you stop exercising or do not do your program often enough, you will lose the benefits you have gained.
Regular workouts are the key to success.

Warm Up

Every exercise program should start with a warm up where the body is prepared for the effort to come. It
should be gentle and preferably use the muscles to be involved later.
Stretching should be included in both your warm up and cool down, and should be performed after 3-5
minutes of low intensity aerobic activity or calisthenic type exercise.

Warm Down or Cool Down

This involves a gradual decrease in the intensity of the exercise session. Following exercise, a large supply
of blood remains in the working muscles. If it is not returned promptly to the central circulation, pooling of
blood may occur in the muscles.

Heart Rate

As you exercise, the rate at which your heart beat increases. This is often used as a measure of the required
intensity of exercise. You need to exercise hard enough to condition your circulatory system, and increase
your pulse rate, but not enough to strain your heart.

Your initial level of fitness is important in developing an exercise program for you. If you are starting off,
you can get a good training effect with a heart rate of 110-120 beats per minute (BPM). If you are fitter,
you will need a higher threshold of stimulation.

To begin with, you should exercise at a level that elevates your heart rate to about 65 to 70% of your
maximum. If you find this is too easy, you may want to increase it, but it is better to lean on the
conservative side.

As a rule of thumb, the maximum heart rate is 220 minus your age. As you increase in age, your heart, like
other muscles, loses some of its efficiency. Some of its natural loss is won back as fitness improves.

The following table is a guide to those who are “starting fitness”.
Age 25 30 35 40 45 50 55 60 65

Target heart Rate
10Second Count 23 22 22 21 20 19 19 18 18

Beats per Minute 138 132 132 126 120 114 114 108 108

Pulse Count

The pulse count (on your wrist or carotid artery in the neck, taken with two index fingers)is done for ten
seconds, taken a few seconds after you stop exercising. This is for two reasons: (a) 10 seconds is long
enough for accuracy, (b) the pulse count is to approximate your BPM rate at the time you are exercising.
Since heart rate slows as you recover, a longer count isn’t as accurate.

The target is not a magic number, but a general guide. If you’re above average fitness, you may work quite
comfortably a little above that suggested for your age group.

The following table is a guide to those who are keeping fit.
Here we are working at about 80% of maximum.

25

Age 25 30 35 40 45 50 55 60 65

Beats per Minute 156 156 150 144 138 132 132 126 120

Don’t push yourself too hard to reach the figures on this table. It can be very uncomfortable if you overdo it. Let
it happen naturally as you work through your program. Remember, the target is a guide, not a rule, a little above
or below is just fine.

Two final comments:(1) don’t be concerned with day to day variations in your pulse rate, being under
pressure or not enough sleep can affect it;(2) your pulse rate is a guide, don’t become a slave to it.

Muscle Soreness

For the first week or so, this may be the only indication you have that you are on an exercise program. This,
of course, does depend on your overall fitness level. A confirmation that you are on the correct program is a
very slight soreness in most major muscle groups. This is quite normal and will disappear in a matter of
days.

If you experience major discomfort, you may be on a program that is too advanced or you have increased
your program too rapidly.
If you experience PAIN during or after exercise, your body is telling your something.
Stop exercising and consult your doctor.

What to Wear

Wear clothing that will not restrict your movement in any way while exercising. Clothes should be light
enough to allow the body to cool. Excessive clothing that causes you to perspire more than you normally
would while exercising, gives you no advantage. The extra weight you lose is body fluid and will be
replaced with the next glass of water you drink. It is advisable to wear a pair of gym or running shoes or
“sneakers”.

Breathing during Exercise

Do not hold your breath while exercising. Breathe normally as much as possible. Remember, breathing
involves the intake and distribution of oxygen, which feeds the working muscles.

Rest periods
Once you start your exercise program, you should continue through to the end. Do not break off halfway
through and then restart at the same place later on without going through the warm-up stage again.

The rest period required between strength training exercises may vary from person to person. This will
depend mostly on your level of fitness and the program you have chosen. Rest between exercises by all
means, but do not allow this to exceed two minutes. Most people manage with half minute to one minute
rest periods

26

STRETCHING

Stretching should be included in both your warm up and cool down, and should be performed after 3-5
minutes of low intensity aerobic activity or callisthenic type exercise. Movements should be performed
slowly and smoothly, with no bouncing or jerking. Move into the stretch until slight tension, not pain, is
felt in the muscle and hold for 20-30 seconds. Breathing should be slow, rhythmical and under control,
making sure never to hold your breath.
