OPERATION
AND ADJUSTMENT
THE PERFORMANT
LUBE
TM
WALKING
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
plat-
form. 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 tumed 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
PROFORM
dealer or call toll-free 1-800-366-7278
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 gro'unded. If it should malfunc-
tion or break down, grounding provides a path of least
resistance for electric current to reduce the risk of elec-
tric 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,
This [:roduct is for use cr_ _ nomir'a1120-volt circuit,
and t_as a grounding plug that looks like tile plug illus-
trated 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 property
srounded 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
elec-
trician
to determine
if the outlet box cover is
grounded
before using
an adapter.
