  • Page 30: Common Questions

    As long as the sounds your treadmill makes are no louder that a normal conversational tone of voice, it is considered normal noise. If your treadmill is louder than this, you may want to call the Horizon Fitness Customer Service Center @ 1.888.993.3199. Sometimes an initial diagnosis can be made over the phone.
  • Page 31: Tensioning The Belt

    TENSIONING THE BELT If you can feel a slipping sensation when running on the treadmill, the running belt must be tightened. In most cases, the belt has stretched from use, causing the belt to slip. This is a normal and common adjustment.
  • Page 32: Maintenance Procedures

    M A I N T E N A N C E P R O C E D U R E S Cleanliness of your Horizon Fitness treadmill and its operating environment will keep maintenance problems and service calls to a minimum. For this reason, Horizon Fitness recommends that the fol- lowing preventive maintenance schedule be followed.
  • Page 33: Exercise Guidelines

    HOW HARD? How hard you workout is also determined by your goals. If you use your Horizon Fitness treadmill to prepare for a 5K run, you will probably work out at a higher intensity than if your goal is general fitness.
  • Page 34: Developing A Fitness Program

    TIPS STRETCH FIRST Before using your Horizon Fitness product, it is best to take a few minutes doing a few gentle stretch- ing exercises. Stretching prior to exercise will improve flexibility and reduce chances of exercise related injury. Ease into each of these stretches with a slow gentle motion. Do not stretch to the point of pain.
  • Page 35: Fitness Goals

    An important step in developing a long term fitness program is to determine your goals. Is your pri- mary goal for exercising on your Horizon Fitness treadmill to lose weight? Improve muscle? Burn Stress? Prepare for the spring racing schedule? Knowing what your goals are will help you develop a more successful exercise program.
