Serious injury or death could result from electric shock. To reduce the possibility of
electric shock, carefully observe the following precautions.
• Connect the treadmill only to a dedicated, properly grounded outlet. See “Grounding
Instructions” on the next page.
• Always unplug the treadmill from the electrical outlet before cleaning it.
• To disconnect the treadmill, set the power switch to the OFF position, and remove
the plug from the outlet. When the power is off, the green light next to the power
switch is dark.
• Never operate the unit with a damaged power cord or plug.
• Never operate the unit when it is wet.
• Never operate the unit if it is not operating properly.
• Never use extension cords.
• Keep the power cord out of traffic areas and away from heated surfaces.
• Always unplug the machine before service and maintenance are performed.
• Never use the treadmill outdoors.
• Operator should be aware of any shock when touching the treadmill and act
accordingly.
• Treadmill should be serviced by authorized technicians only.
• Power cord should be routed through clamp and kept clear of elevation mechanism.
• Personnel present when treadmill is in use need to be aware of the distinctive order
hot electrical components.

Serious injury or death could result from electric shock occurring during defibrillation.
Never allow patient or operators near treadmill during defibrillation.
Before beginning any exercise program, check with your physician to determine your
present physical condition and capabilities regarding aerobic exercise. Know your limits
and requirements for warm-up, target, and maximum heart and breathing rates; duration
of exercise; cool-down periods; and recovery heart rates. Stop exercising immediately if
you feel faint or dizzy, or if you experience symptoms of overexertion.
Serious injury or death could result from operating treadmill in the presence of explosive
or flammable vapors and antiseptics.

malfunction occurs, grounding provides a path of least resistance for an electric current.
Ungrounded connections may cause electrical shock.
This product is equipped with a three-wire grounding-type plug. The plug will fit into
only a grounding-type outlet. This is a safety feature—do not disable the plug’s third
(grounding) pin with an adapter! Contact a qualified electrician if you are either (1)
unable to insert the plug into your outlet, or (2) uncertain that the outlet is grounded and
meets local codes.
The treadmill is designed to operate on a 200-240VAC/15-amp (13 amp-Europe) service
(unless you ordered the 115VAC/20-amp power supply option). Make sure that the
treadmill is connected to an outlet that looks like the following illustration. Never use an
adapter or extension cord with this product. If you have any questions or experience any
problems, contact your distributor.

ssembly, Location, and Power
equirements
TRACKMASTER® treadmills are shipped fully assembled unless otherwise specified.
After you have unpacked the treadmill, move it to the exercise area by rolling it on its
front wheels. If your treadmill is shipped partially disassembled, refer to The Packing List/
Assembly Sheets for assembly.
CAUTION If you are moving the treadmill over a rough surface, such as pavement, use a dolly under
the front of the treadmill to prevent damage to the wheels.
Place the treadmill on a level, stable surface—short-pile industrial carpeting is acceptable.
CAUTION Do not place the treadmill on thick or long-pile carpeting. Such carpeting could cause
instability or static build-up, and carpet fibers could get caught in the belt and damage the
unit.
Provide adequate clearance around the treadmill, away from obtrusive objects such as
weight machines. Obstructions can cause injury to the user or damage to the treadmill.
Keep the treadmill away from sources of moisture, such as spas or fountains. Moisture can
cause the electronic circuitry to malfunction.

Assembly, Location, and Power Requirements TRACKMASTER
Your TRACKMASTER
®
treadmill operates on a 200-240VAC, 15-amp (13 amp-Europe)
service (115VAC, 20-amp optional). The treadmill requires an approved outlet (see Chapter
4, “Grounding Instructions”) that is properly grounded, includes a 15-amp (13 ampEurope) circuit breaker (20 amp for the optional 115VAC power supply, with neutral line
dedicated on 115VAC), and dedicated to the exclusive use of the treadmill.
Note: In applications using the 115VAC 20-amp Treadmill, a high magnetic type
circuit breaker in your service box is required.
No other equipment may be used on the treadmill circuit. Do not use extension cords.
Using an ungrounded, shared, or otherwise improper circuit will void the machine's
warranty and may result in major damage to your treadmill's electronic circuits. Using a
shared circuit can also cause the treadmill to unexpectedly shut off, resulting in injury to
the user.
Ensure that power cords do not cross traffic areas. Exposed power cords can cause a fall,
resulting in injury.
Before plugging the power cord into its power outlet, ensure that the treadmill master
power switch is in the OFF position . A power surge through the treadmill electronics
could trip the treadmill’s circuit breakers.

8.
Turn the power "OFF" at the treadmill.
Disconnect RS232 interface cable from the treadmill and plug in the test
connector.
Hold the button down on the test connector and turn treadmill power
"ON". Continue holding until treadmill begins to elevate.
Once this is initiated, with each push of the button the treadmill should
elevate 5% grade.
When the treadmill reaches 20% elevation the next push of the button
will start the treadmill running belt.
With each push of the button the treadmill will increase speed by 2.5 miles
per hour.
Once the treadmill reaches 10 mph, each push of the button will bring the
speed down 2.5 miles per hour and simultaneously lower the elevation
level by 5% increments.
When minimum speed and elevation is reached the next press of the
button will cause the treadmill running belt to stop.

Successful completion of the preceding testing procedure ensures that the treadmill is fully
functional and responsive to command signals through the RS232 port.

• Wipe the treadmill to remove soil, moisture, and perspiration.
• Clean the hood and handrails with a soft cloth, dampened with a solution of warm
water and mild detergent.
• Remove stubborn stains and scuff marks with a nonabrasive, industrial strength
cleaner, such as Formula 409

Weekly Maintenance
• Vacuum around and under the treadmill. Clean all exposed surfaces with the vacuum
cleaner. Do not move the treadmill from its original position—moving it will
compromise the original belt tracking setting.
• Check running belt tension.
Semiannual Maintenance
• Lubricate the elevation screw with molybdenum-based grease that is available from
your local parts store.
• Evaluate the condition of the deck and belt.
Deck and Belt Maintenance
CAUTION Use only TRACKMASTER
