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 turned 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 grounded.
II 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.
Important:
The treadmill
is not compatible
with
GFCl-equipped
outlets.
This product is for use on a nominal 120-volt circuit,
and has a grounding plug that looks like the 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 properly
grounded 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.

Do you have a question about the 835QT and is the answer not in the manual?
Questions and answers
the reset switch is in the proper position but still no power
The Pro-Form 835QT may have no power despite the reset switch being in the proper position due to several possible reasons:
1. The power cord may not be plugged into a surge suppressor, or the surge suppressor may not be plugged into a properly grounded outlet.
2. The surge suppressor may not meet the required specifications (UL 1449 listed, 400V suppressed voltage rating, 450J minimum surge dissipation, 120V AC, 15A).
3. The treadmill may be plugged into a GFCI-equipped outlet, which is incompatible with the treadmill.
4. The key may not be fully inserted into the console.
5. The on/off switch near the power cord may not be in the "on" position.
6. The circuit breaker on the treadmill frame may have tripped and needs resetting.
Check these factors to restore power to the treadmill.
