OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

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

CAUTION: Treadmill may start at fast speed. Stand on side platforms, and hold side rails

when switching treadmill off or on.

1. Be sure the treadmill is positioned on a flat, level surface, and that it is set on the proper
speed and incline for your individual exercise requirement.

2. Plug in the treadmill power cable to a suitable power outlet. ( 220 - 240 VOLT, 50Hz ).

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 the computer, START/STOP button
and the speed adjustment handle.

CAUTION: Do not stand on the mat during the preliminary test.

5. Follow the instructions written on right side of computer console “TO OPERATE”.

6. Pull red START/STOP button to the “ON” position.

7. Place your weight on the right foot, extend the left onto the walking platform one normal step
ahead of you. Allow the left leg to follow the platform mat movement. Repeat this manoeuver
several times until you become familiar with the required pace.

8. Once you determine the pace, simply follow the “in motion” leg with the stationary leg in a
normal walking manner. Continue to grip the handles firmly until you are walking normally.
After gaining stability and confidence, release your grip on the handles 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.

9. To adjust the speed simply start the treadmill and turn speed adjustment handle--­ To increase speed - Turn speed adjustment handle clockwise.
To decrease speed - Turn speed adjustment handle anti-clockwise.

WARNING: Do not turn the adjustment handle when the treadmill is off.
This may cause the motor to overload at turn on.
If this occurs, the power switch will automatically shut the treadmill off.
To restart, turn the speed adjustment handle to maximum speed (ccw) and then reset
the power switch before restarting treadmill.

10. IN AN EMERGENCY
In an emergency take hold of the handrails and place your feet on the side rails provided,
once you are stable, push the stop button. The treadmill will then begin to decelerate
until it stops.
