OPERATION AND ADJUSTMENT

THE PERFORMANT LUBETMWALKING BELT

Your treadmill features a walking belt coated with
PERFORMANT LUBE

TM

, a high-performance lubricant.

IMPORTANT: Never apply silicone spray or other
substances to the walking belt or the walking plat­form. Such substances will deteriorate the walking
belt and cause excessive wear.

HOW TO PLUG IN THE POWER CORD

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
WESLO dealer or call toll-free 1-800-999-3756 and
order part number 146148. 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.

This product must be grounded. If it should mal­function or break down, grounding provides a path of
least resistance for electric current to reduce the risk
of electric 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 outlet that is properly installed and

grounded in 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.

The temporary adapter should be used only until a
properly grounded outlet (drawing 1) 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. Some 2-pole receptacle outlet

box covers are not grounded. Contact a qualified
electrician to determine if the outlet box cover is
grounded before using an adapter.

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.

CONDITIONING GUIDELINES

The following guidelines will help you to plan your
exercise program. Remember—these are general
guidelines only; for more detailed exercise information,
obtain a reputable book or consult your physician.

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.

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

Fat Burning

To burn fat effectively, you must exercise at a relatively
low intensity level for a sustained period of time.
During the first few minutes of exercise, your body

uses easily accessible carbohydrate calories for ener­gy. Only after the first few minutes does your body
begin to use stored fat calories for energy. If your goal
is to burn fat, adjust the speed of the treadmill until
your heart rate is near one of the lower two numbers in
your training zone. It may also be helpful to set the
speed control on the console to FAT BURN to help you
maintain the proper intensity level. (See page 9.)

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 aerobic exercise,
adjust the speed of the treadmill until your heart rate is
near the higher number in your training zone. It may
also be helpful to set the speed control on the console
to AEROBIC to help you maintain the proper intensity
level. (See page 9.)

High Performance Athletic Conditioning

If your goal is high performance athletic conditioning,
set the speed control on the console to PERFOR­MANCE to help you maintain the proper intensity
level. (See page 9.) Note: During the first few weeks
of your exercise program, keep your heart rate near
the low end of 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.) If
your heart rate is too high or too low, adjust the speed
or incline of the treadmill accordingly.

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 pre-existing health problems.

SUGGESTED STRETCHES

The correct form for several basic stretches is shown in the drawings
below. Move slowly as you stretch—never bounce.

1. Toe Touch Stretch

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

Sit with one leg extended. Bring the sole of the opposite foot toward you
and rest it against the inner thigh of your extended leg. Reach toward
your toes as far as possible. Hold for 15 counts, then relax. Repeat 3
times for both legs. Stretches: Hamstrings, lower back and groin.

3. Calf/Achilles Stretch

With one leg in front of the other, reach forward and place your 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 both legs. To
cause further stretching of the achilles tendons, bend your back leg as
well. Stretches: Calves, achilles tendons and ankles.

4. Quadriceps Stretch

With one hand against a wall for balance, reach back and grasp one
foot with your other hand. Bring your heel as close to your buttocks as
possible. Hold for 15 counts, then relax. Repeat 3 times for both legs.
Stretches: Quadriceps and hip muscles.

5. Inner Thigh Stretch

Sit with the soles of your feet together and your knees outward. Pull
your feet toward your groin area as far as possible. Hold for 15 counts,
then relax. Repeat 3 times. Stretches: Quadriceps and hip muscles.

WORKOUT GUIDELINES

Each workout should include the following three parts:

A Warm-up

Start each workout with 5 to 10 minutes of stretching
and light exercise. Aproper warm-up increases your
body temperature, heart rate, and circulation in prepa­ration for exercise.

Training Zone Exercise

After warming up, increase the intensity of your exer­cise until your pulse is in your training zone for 20 to
60 minutes. (During the first few weeks of your exer­cise program, do not keep your pulse in your training

zone for longer than 20 minutes.) Breathe regularly
and deeply as you exercise—never hold your breath.

A Cool-down

Finish each workout with 5 to 10 minutes of stretching
to cool down. This will increase the flexibility of your
muscles and will help prevent post-exercise problems.

EXERCISE FREQUENCY

To maintain or improve your condition, complete three
workouts each week, with at least one day of rest
between workouts. After a few months, you may com­plete up to five workouts each week if desired. The
key to success is to make exercise a regular and
enjoyable part of your everyday life.
