MAINTENANCE AND TROUBLESHOOTING

Most treadmill problems can be solved by following the steps below. Find the symptom that applies, and
follow the steps listed. If further assistance is needed, please see the front cover of this manual.

1. SYMPTOM: THE CONSOLE DOES NOT
FUNCTION PROPERLY

a. Replace the battery in the console (see assembly

step 5 on page 6).

b. The console, like most electronics, is susceptible

to static electricity build-up caused by certain
types of clothing or by the operation of the tread­mill. If the display is blank or gives incorrect read­ings, apply an anti-static spray to the handrails.
Anti-static spray is available where laundry sup­plies are sold.

2. SYMPTOM: THE WALKING BELT DOES NOT
MOVE SMOOTHLY

a. If the walk-

ing belt is
overtight­ened, per­formance
may be
reduced and
the walking
belt may be
permanently
damaged.
Using the
hex key,
turn both rear roller bolts counterclockwise 1/4 of
a turn. When the tension of the walking belt is
correct, you should be able to lift each edge of
the walking belt 2 to 3 inches. W

CONDITIONING GUIDELINES

The following guidelines will help you to plan your
exercise program. Remember that proper nutrition and
adequate rest are essential for successful results.

WARNING: Before beginning this

or any exercise program, consult your physi­cian. This is especially important for individu­als over the age of 35 or individuals with pre­existing health problems.

EXERCISE INTENSITY

Whether your goal is to burn fat or to strengthen your
cardiovascular system, the key to achieving the
desired results is to exercise with the proper intensity.
The proper intensity level can be found by using your
heart rate as a guide. The chart below shows
recommended heart rates for fat burning and aerobic
exercise.

Aerobic Exercise

If your goal is to strengthen your cardiovascular sys­tem, your exercise must be “aerobic.” Aerobic exercise
is activity that requires large amounts of oxygen for
prolonged periods of time. This increases the demand
on the heart to pump blood to the muscles, and on the
lungs to oxygenate the blood. For effective aerobic
exercise, adjust the intensity of your exercise until
your heart rate is near the highest number in your train­ing zone.

HOW TO MEASURE YOUR HEART RATE

To measure your heart
rate, stop exercising
and place two fingers
on your wrist as shown.
Take a six-second
heartbeat count, and
multiply the result by
ten to find your heart
rate. (A six-second count is used because your heart
rate drops quickly when you stop exercising.)

To find the proper heart rate for you, first find your age
near the bottom of the chart (ages are rounded off to
the nearest ten years). Next, find the three numbers
above your age. The three numbers are your “training
zone.” The lower two numbers are recommended
heart rates for fat burning; the highest number is the
recommended heart rate for aerobic exercise.

Burning Fat

the first few minutes of exercise, your body uses easi­ly accessible

fat, adjust the intensity of your exercise until your
heart rate is between the lower two numbers in your
training zone as you exercise.

WORKOUT GUIDELINES

Each workout should include the following three impor­tant parts:

A warm-up, consisting of five to ten minutes of
stretching and light exercise. This will increase your
body temperature, heart rate, and circulation in prepa­ration for exercise.

Training zone exercise, including 20 to 30 minutes of
exercise with your heart rate in your training zone.

A

stretching. Stretching after exercise is effective for
increasing flexibility and helps to offset problems
caused when you stop exercising suddenly.

EXERCISE FREQUENCY

To maintain or improve your condition, plan three
workouts each week, with at least one day of rest after
each workout. After a few months of regular exercise,
you may complete up to five workouts each week, if
desired. Instead of waiting for a good time to exercise,
plan a time. Whatever time you choose, be consistent;
the key to success is to make exercise a regular and
enjoyable part of your everyday life.

SUGGESTED STRETCHES

he correct form for several basic stretches is shown at the right. Move slowly as you stretch—never bounce.

T

. Toe Touch Stretch

1

Stand with your knees bent slightly and slowly bend forward from
your hips. Allow your back and shoulders to relax as you reach
down toward your toes as far as possible. Hold for 15 counts, then
relax. Repeat 3 times. Stretches: Hamstrings, back of knees and
back.

2. Hamstring Stretch

relax. Repeat 3 times for each leg. Stretches: Hamstrings, lower
back and groin.

3. Calf/Achilles Stretch

hands against a wall. Keep your back leg straight and your back
foot flat on the floor. Bend your front leg, lean forward and move
your hips toward the wall. Hold for 15 counts, then relax. Repeat 3
times for each leg. To cause further stretching of the achilles ten­dons, bend your back leg as well. Stretches: Calves, achilles ten­dons and ankles.

4. Quadriceps Stretch
