WALL POWER TO TREADMILL
This product is for use on a nominal 120-volt circuit, and has a grounding plug that looks like the plug illustrated below. A temporary adapter such as the one illustrated below may be used to connect this plug to a 2-pole receptacle as shown, if a properly grounded outlet is not available. The temporary adapter should be used only until a properly grounded outlet can be installed by a qualified electrician. The green colored rigid ear, lug, or the like extending from the adapter must be connected to a permanent ground such as a properly grounded outlet box cover. Whenever the adapter is used, it must be held in place by a metal screw. surge protectors or extension cords should not be used. They do not supply enough electricity to the treadmill and can damage it.

It is recommended, when possible, that assembly be performed by an authorized VISION FITNESS Retailer.

Then simply lift the back end of the Treadmill with both hands and push it up. The Treadmill has a built-in locking mechanism that will automatically engage and click into place when you reach a vertical point.
UNFOLDING
To un-fold your Treadmill from the
upright position simply lift the lever on the left side vertical rail. Guide the deck down with both hands
until the Treadmill reaches the floor. Do not let go before the deck is

PLACEMENT IN YOUR HOME
It is important that you place your Treadmill in a comfortable and inviting room. Your Treadmill is designed to use minimal floor space. Many people will place their Treadmills facing the TV or a picture window. If at all possible, avoid putting your Treadmill in an unfinished basement. To make exercise a desirable daily activity for you, the Treadmill should be in an attractive setting.
NOTE: If you place your treadmill facing out from a wall, you should leave three to five feet between the wall and the treadmill to ensure safe operation.
LEVELING
The Treadmill should be level for optimum use. Once you have placed the Treadmill where you intend to use it, raise or lower one or both of the
8adjustable levelers located on the front frame of the Treadmill. A carpenter’s level is recommended. If your Treadmill is not level, the running belt may not track properly. Once you have leveled the Treadmill, lock the levelers in place by tightening the nuts against the frame.
POWER
Ensure that your Treadmill is properly connected to a power outlet, then turn on the Power switch, located at the front of the main frame.
SAFETY KEY CLIP & TETHER
Your VISION FITNESS Treadmill will not start unless the Safety Key is inserted into the keyhole in the center of the console case. You should attach the clip end to your clothing. If at any time you need to stop the Treadmill quickly simply pull the Safety Key off the console. This will cut all power to the Treadmill and it will come to a complete stop. To resume your workout, place the Safety Key back in place. This will send you back to the start-up mode.
