the treadmill.
For your protection, carefully read and follow these simple steps:

1. Be sure the treadmill is positioned on a flat, level surface.

2. Make sure the magnetic safety key is not attached then plug in the treadmill power cable to a
suitable power socket and switch on at the socket.

3. Turn on the treadmill power switch, which is located near where the power cable attaches to
the treadmill.

4. Straddle the running mat with your feet firmly planted on the right and left staging platforms.
Stand close enough so you can extend your arms to touch all the buttons on the console.

CAUTION: Do not stand on the mat yet.

5. Insert the safety key.

6. Follow the instructions shown on the main display of the computer console” TO OPERATE “

STARTING YOUR EXERCISE

Stand on the running mat.

Once you have selected your workout, the treadmill will slowly increase its speed to
the desired levels.

Continue to grip the handles until you are walking / running normally.

After gaining stability and confidence, you may release your grip on the handrails and let your
arms swing freely and naturally at your side.

NOTE: Walking straight on the treadmill is aided by focussing on a stationary object across

the room in front of you.
Walk as if you were approaching that object.

IN AN EMERGENCY

In an emergency take hold of the handrails and place your feet on the side platforms provided,
once you are stable, pull out the safety key. The treadmill will then begin to decelerate
until it stops.

HOW TO GET OFF THE TREADMILL

The following procedure has been proven to be the safest and easiest method of
dismounting the treadmill.
For your protection, carefully read and follow these simple steps.

1. Turn the treadmill to the lowest speed.

2. Firmly grip the handles to support yourself.

3. Remove your trailing foot from the walking platform and place it on the foot pad on the
side of the treadmill.
This is very easy to do because the natural movement of walking will have shifted your
weight onto the foot that just stepped forward.

4. Shift your weight to the stationary foot on the foot pad, and remove the other foot from
the walking platform and place it on the other foot pad.
You should now be in the starting position.

5. Press the STOP key to stop the treadmill and disconnect the safety key then unplug
treadmill from the power outlet when finished.

SHOULD YOU REQUIRE ANY ASSISTANCE REGARDING THIS PRODUCT
PLEASE CONTACT YORK DIRECTLY.

IN AN EMERGENCY

HOW TO ADJUST THE MAT ALIGNMENT AND TENSION

MAT MOVES TO RIGHT

If your mat tends to move to the right, then adjust the right screw by turning it a turn clockwise.
We recommend adjustments of a turn only at a time, then test each time.
If your mat continues to move to the right, simply adjust the left adjustment screw, by turning
a turn counterclockwise, test after each adjustment.

MAT MOVES TO LEFT

If your mat tends to move to the left, then the adjustment of the right screw is necessary by
turning it counterclockwise.
We recommend adjustments of turn only at a time, then test each time.
If the mat continues to move to the left, simply adjust the left adjustment screw, by turning
turn clockwise, then test each time.

The alignment and tension of the mat (walking surface) has been set prior to shipping.
Should improper tracking of the mat occur (walking surface moving too far to the right or the left
on the platform) or if you find that the mat slips when you get on, these problems can be corrected
as follows:

Locate the adjustment screws on the end of the main frame.

CAUTION: Adjust the mat when the treadmill is running at the lowest speed.
Keep others away from the treadmill.

Connect the safety key and set to the lowest speed.

TEST: Allow the mat to run for several minutes and watch to see if it runs in the center position
correctly. If the mat does not run in the center position, carry out the steps for:
”MAT MOVES TO LEFT” or “MAT MOVES TO RIGHT”.
Be sure that you adjust by “ a turn only each time” to avoid over correcting.

NOTE: For most people, one of your legs is stronger than the other and the treadmill mat may
tend to track to that side because of the extra pressure exerted by your stronger leg.
If this occurs then either dismount the treadmill and allow the mat to track back to the
middle, or exert pressure to the side of the mat with the other leg to track the mat back
to the middle.
Or adjust the mat to compensate following the instructions for the mat moves to the right
or left.

MAT TOO LOOSE

If your mat appears to be loose, simply tighten both screws by an equal amount
( 1/2 a turn clockwise at a time ) then test.

Press for elevation “UP”

HOW TO ADJUST THE ELEVATION

MAT STICKY (DOES NOT RUN SMOOTHLY)

You may feel after a period of time (depending on how often you use the machine)
that the mat feels sticky.
We recommend you apply a light covering of Silicone between the mat and the running board.
This procedure may be repeated as necessary.

MAT TOO TIGHT

If it appears tight, simply loosen both screws by an equal amount

( 1/2 a turn anti-clockwise at a time ) then test.

HOW TO CHECK THE RUNNING MAT FOR PROPER LUBRICATION

- Disconnect the main power supply.

- Fold the treadmill up into the storage position.

- Feel the white back surface of the running mat.
If the surface is slick to the touch, then no further lubrication is required.
If the surface is dry to the touch, apply a suitable silicone lubricant.

WALKING MAT AND DECK LUBRICATION

This treadmill is equipped with a pre-lubricated, maintenance deck system. The mat/deck friction
may play a major role in the function and life of your treadmill, this requires periodic lubrication.
We recommend a periodic inspection of the deck. If the deck appears worn, please contact
our service department.
We recommend lubrication of the deck according to the following timetable:
Light use ( less than 3 hours per week ) every 8 months
Medium use ( 3-5 hours per week ) every 4 months
Heavy use ( more than 5 hours per week ) every 2 months
