IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS WARNING ‐ Read all instructions before using this appliance. DANGER ‐ To reduce the risk of electric shock disconnect your SOLE treadmill from the electrical outlet prior to cleaning and/or service work. WARNING ‐ To reduce the risk of burns, fire, electric shock, or injury to persons, install the treadmill on a flat level surface with access to a 110‐volt, 15‐amp grounded outlet with only the treadmill plugged into the circuit. DO NOT USE AN EXTENSION CORD UNLESS IT IS A 14 AWG OR BETTER, WITH ONLY ONE OUTLET ON THE END: DO NOT ATTEMPT TO DISABLE THE GROUNDED PLUG BY USING IMPROPER ADAPTERS, OR IN ANY WAY MODIFY THE CORD SET. A serious shock or fire hazard may result along with computer malfunctions. See Grounding Instructions, page 5. Do not operate treadmill on deeply padded, plush or shag carpet. Damage to both carpet and treadmill may result. Do not block the rear of the treadmill. Provide a minimum of 3 1/2 feet clearance between the rear of the treadmill and any fixed object. Keep children under the age of 13 away from this machine. There are obvious pinch points and other caution areas that can cause harm. Keep hands away from all moving parts. Never operate the treadmill if it has a damaged cord or plug. If the treadmill is not working properly, call your dealer. Keep the cord away from heated surfaces. Do not operate where aerosol spray products are being used or where oxygen is being administered. Sparks from the motor may ignite a highly gaseous environment. Never drop or insert any object into any openings. Do not use outdoors. To disconnect, turn all controls to the off position, remove tether cord, then remove the plug from the outlet. Do not attempt to use your treadmill for any purpose other than for the purpose it is ...
IMPORTANT ELECTRICAL INSTRUCTIONS WARNING! NEVER use a ground fault circuit interrupt (GFCI) wall outlet with this treadmill. As with any appliance with a large motor, the GFCI will trip often. Route the power cord away from any moving part of the treadmill including the elevation mechanism and transport wheels. NEVER remove any cover without first disconnecting AC power. If voltage varies by ten percent (10%) or more, the performance of your treadmill may be affected. Such conditions are not covered under your warranty. If you suspect the voltage is low, contact your local power company or a licensed electrician for proper testing. NEVER expose this treadmill to rain or moisture. This product is NOT designed for use outdoors, near a pool or spa, or in any other high humidity environment. The maximum operating temperature specification is 40 degrees c, and humidity is 95% non‐condensing (no water drops forming on surfaces). Circuit Breakers: Some circuit breakers used in homes are not rated for high inrush currents, (ARC fault breakers are one example) that can occur when a treadmill is first turned on or even during use. If your treadmill is tripping the house circuit breaker (even though it is the proper current rating) but the circuit breaker on the treadmill itself does not trip, you will need to replace the home breaker with a high inrush type. This is not a warranty defect. This is a condition we as a manufacture have no ability to control. This part is available through most electrical supply stores. Examples: Grainger part # 1D237, or available online at www.squared.com part # QO120HM. GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS This product must be grounded. If the treadmill should malfunction or breakdown, grounding provides a path of least resistance for electric current, reducing the risk of electric shock. This product is equipped with a cord having an equipment‐grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into an appropriate outlet that is properly installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances. DANGER ‐ Improper connection of the equipment‐grounding conductor can result in a 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. This product is for use on a nominal 110‐volt circuit, and has a grounding plug that looks like the plug illustrated below. A temporary adapter that looks like the adapter illustrated below may be used to connect this plug to a 2‐pole receptacle as shown below if a properly grounded outlet is not available. The temporary adapter should be used only until a properly grounded outlet, (shown below) can be installed by a qualified electrician. The green colored rigid ear‐ lug, or the like, extending from the adapter, must be ...
IMPORTANT OPERATION INSTRUCTIONS NEVER operate this treadmill without reading and completely understanding the results of any operational change you request from the computer. Understand that changes in speed and incline do not occur immediately. Set your desired speed on the computer console and release the adjustment key. The computer will obey the command gradually. NEVER use your treadmill during an electrical storm. Surges may occur in your household power supply that could damage treadmill components. Unplug the treadmill during an electrical storm as a precaution. Use caution while participating in other activities while walking on your treadmill; such as watching television, reading, etc. These distractions may cause you to lose balance or stray from walking in the center of the belt; which may result in serious injury. NEVER mount or dismount the treadmill while the belt is moving. SOLE treadmills start at a very low speed and it is unnecessary to straddle the belt during start up. Simply standing on the belt during slow acceleration is proper after you have learned to operate the unit. Always hold on to a handrail or hand bar while making control changes (incline, speed, etc.). Do not use excessive pressure on console control keys. They are precision set to function properly with little finger pressure. Pushing harder is not going to make the unit go faster or slower. If you feel the buttons are not functioning properly with normal pressure contact your SOLE dealer. IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS A safety tether cord is provided with this unit and should be used at all times. It is for your safety should you fall or move too far back on the tread‐belt. Pulling this safety tether cord will stop tread‐belt movement. To Use: 1. Place the safety key into position on the console control head. Your treadmill will not start and operate without this. Removing the safety key also secures the treadmill from unau‐ thorized use. 2. ...

DOT MATRIX CENTER DISPLAY Eighteen columns of dots, 8 high for the S77 indicate each segment of a workout. The dots are only to show an approximate level (speed/incline) of effort. They do not necessarily indicate a specific value only an approximate percent to compare levels of intensity. In operation, the speed/incline dot matrix window will build a profile “picture” as values are changed during a workout. When the word “SPEED” is lit above or below the dot matrix it indicates that the speed profile is being displayed and when “INCLINE” is lit the incline profile is being displayed. You may switch the speed or incline dot matrix profile shown by pressing the Enter button. Pressing the Enter button a second time will switch it back to the previous profile. Pressing it a third time will automatically alternate the Speed and Incline profile views. CALORIE DISPLAY Displays the cumulative calories burned at any given time during your workout. Note: This is only a rough guide used for comparison of different exercise sessions, which cannot be used for medical purposes. There is an Audio Input Jack ( ) on the front of the console and built‐in speakers. You may plug any low‐level audio source signal into this port. Audio sources include MP3, iPod, portable radio, CD player or even a TV or computer audio signal. There is an audio patch cable included to and also a headphone jack ( ) for private listening. customerservice@dyaco.ca Dyaco Canada Inc. 2016 ...

PULSE FEATURE The Pulse (Heart Rate) Window will display your current heart rate in beats per minute during the workout. You must use both stainless steel sensors on the front cross bar to display your pulse or wear the wireless chest strap. The pulse value will display anytime the upper display is receiving a pulse signal. TURNING OFF TREADMILL 1. The display will automatically turn off – go to sleep ‐ after 30 minutes of inactivity when in the Pause / Stop mode. Almost all power for the treadmill will be off except for some circuits that are needed to detect if any key is pressed, indicating the console should “wake up”. When the console is “asleep” the treadmill draws very little power, about as much as your television when it is turned off. 2. Removing the Safety Key is similar to entering “sleep” mode. Turning off the main power switch in the front of the treadmill will completely remove any power. ...

PROGRAMMABLE FEATURES The S77 have ten built‐in programs: one Manual program, five preset profiles, two user defined programs (U1 & U2) and two Heart Rate programs (HR1 & HR2). PRESET PROGRAMS Hill The Hill program simulates going up and down a hill. The workload will steadily increase and then decrease during the program. S77 SPEED S77 INCLINE Fat Burn The Fat Burn program is designed, as the name implies, to maximize the burning of fat. There are many schools of thought on the best way to burn fat but most experts agree that a lower exertion level that stays at a steady workload is the best. The absolute best way to burn fat is to keep your heart rate at around 60% to 70% of its maximum potential. This program does not use heart rate but simulates a lower, steady exertion workout. S77 SPEED S77 INCLINE Cardio The Cardio program is designed to increase your cardiovascular function and endurance. This is exercise for your heart and lungs. It will build up your heart muscle and increase blood flow and lung capacity. This is achieved by incorporating a higher level of exertion with slight fluctuations in work. S77 SPEED S77 INCLINE ...

HEART RATE PROGRAMS Before we get started, a word about Heart Rate: 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. To determine the benefit range in which you wish to train, you must first determine your Maximum Heart Rate. This can be accomplished by using the following formula: 220 minus your age. This will give you the Maximum Heart Rate (MHR) for someone of your age. To determine the effective heart rate range for specific goals you simply calculate a percentage your MHR. Your Heart rate training zone is 50% to 90% of your maximum heart rate. 60% of your MHR is the zone that burns fat while 80% is for strengthening the cardio vascular system. This 60% to 80% is the zone to stay in for maximum benefit. For someone who is 40 years old their target heart rate zone is calculated: 220 – 40 = 180 (maximum heart rate) 180 x .6 = 108 beats per minute (60% of maximum) 180 X .8 = 144 beats per minute (80% of maximum) So for a 40 year old the training zone would be 108 to 144 beats per minute. If you enter your age during programming the console will perform this calculation automatically. Entering your age is used for the Heart Rate programs. After calculating your MHR you can decide upon which goal you would like to pursue. The two most popular reasons for, or goals, of exercise are cardiovascular fitness (training for the heart and lungs) and weight control. The black columns on the chart above represent the MHR for a person whose age is listed at the bottom of each column. The training heart rate, for either cardiovascular fitness or weight loss, is represented by two different lines that cut diagonally through the chart. A definition of the lines’ goal is in the bottom left‐hand corner of the chart. If your goal is cardiovascular fitness or if it is weight loss, it can be achieved by training at 80% or 60%, respectively, of your MHR on a schedule approved by your physician. Consult your physician before participating in any exercise program. ...

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. If you listen to your body, it will tell you all of these things. The rate of perceived exertion (RPE), also known as the Borg scale, was developed by Swedish physiologist G.A.V. Borg. This scale rates exercise intensity from 6 to 20 depending upon how you feel or the perception of your effort. The scale is as follows: Rating Perception of Effort 6 Minimal 7 Very, very light 8 Very, very light + 9 Very light 10 Very light + 11 Fairly light 12 Comfortable 13 Somewhat hard 14 Somewhat hard + 15 Hard 16 Hard + 17 Very hard 18 Very hard + 19 Very, very hard 20 Maximal You can get an approximate heart rate level for each rating by simply adding a zero to each rating. For example a rating of 12 will result in an approximate heart rate of 120 beats per minute. Your RPE will vary depending up the factors discussed earlier. That is the major benefit of this type of training. If your body is strong and rested, you will feel strong and your pace will feel easier. When your body is in this condition, you are able to train harder and the RPE will support this. If you are feeling tired and sluggish, it is because your body needs a break. In this condition, your pace will feel harder. Again, this will show up in your RPE and you will train at the proper level for that day. customerservice@dyaco.ca Dyaco Canada Inc. 2016 ...
USING HEART RATE TRANSMITTER How to wear your wireless chest strap transmitter: 1. Attach the transmitter to the elastic strap using the locking parts. 2. Adjust the strap as tightly as possible as long as the strap is not too tight to remain comfortable. 3. Position the transmitter with the SOLE logo centered in the middle of your body facing away from your chest (some people must position the transmitter slightly left of center). Attach the final end of the elastic strap by inserting the round end and, using the locking parts, secure the transmitter and strap around your chest. 4. Position the transmitter immediately below the pectoral muscles. 5. Sweat is the best conductor to measure very minute heart beat electrical signals. However, plain water can also be used to pre‐wet the electrodes (2 ribbed oval areas on the reverse side of the belt and both sides of the transmitter). It’s also recommended that you wear the transmitter strap a few minutes before your work out. Some users, because of body chemistry, have a more difficult time in achieving a strong, steady signal at the beginning. After “warming up”, this problem lessens. As noted, wearing clothing over the transmitter/strap doesn’t affect performance. 6. Your workout must be within range ‐ distance between transmitter/receiver – to achieve a strong steady signal. The length of range may vary somewhat but generally stay close enough to the console to maintain good, strong, reliable readings. Wearing the transmitter immediately against bare skin assures you of proper operation. If you wish, you may wear the transmitter over a shirt. To do so, moisten the areas of the shirt that the electrodes will rest upon. Note: The transmitter is automatically activated when it detects activity from the user’s heart. Additionally, it automatically deactivates when it does not receive any activity. Although the transmitter is water resistant, moisture can have the effect of creating false signals, so you should take precautions to completely dry the transmitter after use to prolong battery life (estimated transmitter battery life is 2500 hours). The replacement battery is Panasonic CR2032. ERRATIC OPERATION Caution! Do not use this treadmill for Heart Rate unless a steady, solid Actual Heart Rate value is being displayed. High, wild, random numbers being displayed indicate a problem. ...

HEART RATE PROGRAMMING CAUTION! Heart Rate programs are intended for wireless transmitter chest strap. Do not use Pulse Grip bar for Heart Rate. You must receive a strong/steady value in the Heart Rate Window (See Using Heart Rate Transmitter section for instructions on how to use). The HR1 program has a default level that is 60% of your projected heart rate maximum. This program is geared for individuals with fat loss as a goal. The HR2 program has a default of 80% of your projected heart rate maximum. It is geared for individuals with a goal of improving cardiovascular & lung function. 1. Select HR1 or HR2 via the Program keys. 2. The AGE Window will now be display showing user’s age. Adjust and press Enter or press Enter to accept the default value. Adjusting Age will change the Target HR value. 3. The WEIGHT Window will be displaying a value, showing the default user’s bodyweight for this program. You may adjust it and press Enter if you want or just press Enter to accept the default value. 4. The Time Window will now be displaying a value. Adjust the time and press Enter. 5. Now you are asked to adjust the HR1 or HR2 value. The default is 60% (HR1); (220 ‐ age x .60); or 80% (HR2); (220 – age x .80). You may select a higher or lower number also. Adjust the number by pressing the Speed keys (console or handrails) and press Enter to continue. ▲ ▼ 6. Now you are finished editing the settings and can begin your workout by pressing the Start key. You can also go back and modify your settings by pressing the Stop key to go back one level, or screen. 7. If you want to increase or decrease the speed at any time during the program press the Speed ▲ ▼ (console or handrail) keys. 8. During the HR program you will be able to show the data in the data window by pressing the Display key. When the program ends the data window will show a summary of your workout. ...
GENERAL MAINTENANCE BELT & DECK Your treadmill uses a very high‐efficient low‐friction deck. Performance is maximized when the deck is kept as clean as possible. Use a soft, damp cloth, or paper towel, wipe the edge of the belt and the area between the belt edge and the frame. Also reach as far as practical directly under the belt edge. This should be done once a month to extend belt and deck life. A mild soap and water solution along with a nylon scrub brush will clean the top of the textured belt. Allow to dry before using. BELT DUST This occurs during normal break‐in or until the belt stabilizes. Sometimes the black dust from the belt will appear on the floor behind the treadmill, this is normal. GENERAL CLEANING (Use the chart on Pg. 7 to record your maintenance) Dirt, dust, and hair can block air inlets and accumulate on the running belt. Please vacuum underneath your treadmill on a monthly basis to prevent excess build‐up of dirt that can get sucked up and get into the inner workings under the motor cover. Every other month, you should remove the motor cover and carefully vacuum out dirt and hair that may accumulate. UNPLUG THE POWER CORD BEFORE THIS TASK. 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 M6 L Allen wrench (104) provided in the parts package. The adjustment bolts are located at the end of the step rails as shown in the diagram below. Note: Adjustment is through small hole in end cap. Tighten the rear roller only enough to prevent Note: Adjustment is through small hole in end cap. slippage at the front roller. Turn the tread‐belt tension adjusting bolts 1/4 turn each and inspect for proper tension by walking on the belt and making sure it is not slipping or hesitating with each step. When an adjustment is made to the belt tension, you must be sure to turn the bolts on both sides evenly or the belt could start tracking to one side ...
Page 28
TREAD‐BELT TRACKING ADJUSTMENT The treadmill is designed so that the tread‐belt remains reasonably centered while in use. It is normal for some belts to drift near one side while in use, depending on a user’s gait and if they favor one leg. But if during use the belt continues to move toward one side, adjustments are necessary. SETTING TREAD‐BELT TRACKING A 6 mm Allen wrench (104) is provided for this adjustment. Make tracking adjustments on the left side bolt. Set belt speed at 3 mph. Be aware that a small adjustment can make a dramatic difference which may not be apparent right away. If the belt is too close to the left side, then turn the bolt only a 1/4 turn to the right (clockwise) and wait a few minutes for the belt to adjust itself. Continue to make 1/4 turns until the belt stabilizes in the center of the running deck. If the belt is too close to the right side, turn the bolt counter‐clockwise. The belt may require periodic tracking adjustment depending on use and walking/running characteristics. Some users may affect tracking differently. Expect to make adjustments as required to center the tread‐belt. Adjustments will become less of a maintenance concern as the belt is used. 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 SOLE WARRANTY. TREADMILL BELT The walking belt on your new Sole treadmill is made of the highest quality materials designed to last even under punishing conditions. When a treadmill belt is brand new, and has been in the package for a few months before use, a common occurrence can happen; the area of the belt that wraps around the rollers will take on the shape of the roller. Upon starting the treadmill this shape in the belt causes a thumping sound each time the belt moves past the rollers. Once the treadmill has been used for a few workouts, the belt wears in and the thumping sound goes away. This noise is normal on new higher end belts so there is no need to contact service; the new belt just requires a wear in period. Thank you for choosing Sole and enjoy your new treadmill. customerservice@dyaco.ca Dyaco Canada Inc. 2016 ...

BELT/DECK LUBRICATION First, you want to clean between the belt and deck to remove any debris that may be trapped. Use a clean, non‐fraying rag, t‐shirt, or light towel. Halfway between the end of the treadmill and motor cover, shove the garment under the belt until you can grasp it on both sides of the belt. Drag the garment the length of the entire belt 1‐2 times. Remove the garment. Only lubricate your treadmill with 100% silicone treadmill lubricant. Your treadmill comes with one tube of “Lube” and extra tubes can be ordered directly from Dyaco Canada Inc. or your authorized Sole Fitness dealer. You may also use a Lube‐n‐Walk kit that can be purchased through both aforementioned sellers. Keeping the deck lubricated at the recommended intervals ensures the longest life possible for your treadmill. If the lubricant dries out, the friction between the belt and deck rises and places undue stress on the drive motor, drive belt and electronic motor control board, which could result in catastrophic failure of these expensive components. Failure to lubricate the deck at regular intervals may void the warranty. The belt & deck come pre‐lubricated and subsequent lubrication should be performed every 90 hours of use or if you notice that the deck is dry. It is recommended that you reach between the belt and deck to verify there is lubrication present, every other month. If you check and there isn’t any lubrication present, follow the procedure below even though the “Lube” indicator isn’t lit on the console. Otherwise, lubricate when the console’s lubrication reminder lights after 90 hours of use. Use the following procedure to apply the silicone lubricant: 1. Turn the power switch off and unplug the power cord from the wall outlet. 2. Measure 18” from the edge of the motor cover; kneel down and reach under the belt approximately 4‐ 6” from one edge. Squirt a line of lubricant about 1/8” wide x 15” long in an “S” pattern perpendicular to the motor cover. 3. Repeat the process on the opposite side. 4. Plug the electrical cord back into the outlet and turn the power switch on. 5. Walk on the belt at a moderate speed for five minutes to evenly distribute the silicone lube. 6. If the “Lube” message appears on the console, perform the following procedure to reset the message: ...
