WALKING BELT
Your treadmill features a walking belt coated with
PERFORMANT
LUB.E
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.
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 adapterilluStrated in drawing 2 may be
used to connect the surge _uppressor to a 2-pole
receptacle as shown in drawing 2 if a propedy
grounded outlet is not available.
HOW TO PLUG IN THE POWER CORD
Your treadmill, like any other type of sophisticated
electronic equipment, can be sedously damaged by
sudden voltag e 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-drawing1
at
the right).
Surge suppressors are sold at most hardware stores
and department stores. 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. 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.

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-polereceptacle
outlet box
covers are not grounded. Contact a qual$fied elec-
trician to determine if the outlet box cover is
grounded before using an adapter.
