Page 26: Heart Rate Programs
Heart Rate Programs The old motto, “no pain, no gain”, is a myth that has been overpowered by the benefits of exercising comfortably. A great deal of this success has been promoted by the use of heart rate monitors. With the proper use of a heart rate monitor, many people find that their usual choice of exercise intensity was either too high or too low and exercise is much more enjoyable by maintaining their heart rate in the desired benefit range.
Page 27 Consult your physician before participating in any exercise program. With all Spirit Fitness Heart Rate programs you may use the heart rate monitor feature without using the Heart Rate program. This function can be used during manual mode or during any of the nine...
Page 28: Rate Of Perceived Exertion
Rate of Perceived Exertion Heart rate is important but listening to your body also has a lot of advantages. There are more variables involved in how hard you should workout than just heart rate. Your stress level, physical health, emotional health, temperature, humidity, the time of day, the last time you ate and what you ate, all contribute to the intensity at which you should workout.
Page 29 Wearing The Chest Strap Attach the transmitter to the elastic strap using the interlocking key. Adjust the strap as tightly as possible as long as the strap is not too tight to remain comfortable. Position the transmitter with the logo centered in the middle of your torso facing away from your chest (some people must position the transmitter slightly left of center).
Page 30 Some people have problems with the transmitter picking up a signal from their skin. If you have problems try wearing the transmitter upside down. Normally the transmitter will be oriented so the Spirit Fitness logo is right side up. The antenna that picks up your heart rate is very sensitive. If there is an outside noise source, turning the whole machine 90 degrees may de-tune the interference.
Page 31: Heart Rate Control
Heart Rate Control How the Heart Rate Control Programs Work: Heart Rate Control (HRC) uses your treadmill’s incline system to control your heart rate. Increases and decreases in elevation affect heart rate much more efficiently than changes in speed alone. The HRC program automatically changes elevation gradually to achieve the programmed target heart rate.

Page 33: Belt Adjustments
Belt Adjustments Tread-belt Tension Adjustment - Belt tension is not critical for most users. It is very important though for joggers and runners in order to provide a smooth, steady running surface. Adjustment must be made from the rear roller with the 8mm Allen wrench provided in the parts package.
Page 34 Proper belt tracking is an owner responsibility common with all treadmills. ATTENTION Damage to the running belt resulting from improper tracking / tension adjustments is not covered under the Spirit Fitness warranty.

GENERAL MAINTENANCE Wipe down all areas in the sweat path with a damp cloth after each workout.

All bolts that were installed during assembly need to be tightened as much as possible.
