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 I 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 electdcally 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.
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 propedy
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 prapedy 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 befo[e using an adapter,
