LOCATION OF THE TREADMILL
Place the treadmill on a level and stable surface. Please leave a clear zone behind the treadmill that
is at least the width of the treadmill and at least 79" (2000 mm) long. This zone must be clear of any
obstruction and provide the user a clear exit path from the machine. In case of an emergency, place
both hands on the side arm rests to hold yourself up and place your feet onto the side rails.
For ease of access, there should be an accessible space preferentially on both sides of the treadmill
equal to 36" (915 mm) to allow a user access to the treadmill from either side.
CAUTION
– RISK OF INJURY TO PERSONS
While you are preparing to use the treadmill, do not stand on the belt. Place your feet on the side rails
before starting the treadmill. Start walking on the belt only after the belt has begun to move. Never start
the treadmill at a fast running speed and attempt to jump on!
USING THE SAFETY KEY
Your treadmill will not start unless the safety key is inserted. Attach the clip end securely to your
clothing. This safety key is designed to cut the power to the treadmill if you should fall. Check the
operation of the safety key every 2 weeks.
WARNING
Never use the treadmill without securing the safety key clip to your clothing. Pull on the safety
key clip first to make sure it will not come off your clothing.

PROPER USAGE
12" 305 mm
Your treadmill is capable of reaching high speeds. Always start off using a slower speed and adjust the speed in small
increments to reach a higher speed level. Never leave the treadmill unattended while it is running. When not in use turn
the on/off switch to off and unplug the power cord. Make sure to follow the MAINTENANCE schedule in this guide to
maintain optimal performance and prevent premature electronic failure. Keep your body and head facing forward. Do not
attempt to turn around or look backwards while the treadmill is running. Stop your workout immediately if you feel pain,
faint, dizzy or are short of breath.
WARNING
Our treadmills are heavy; use care and additional help if necessary when moving. Do not attempt to move or
transport treadmill unless it is in the upright, folded position with the lock latch secured. Failure to follow these
instructions could result in injury.

LEVELING THE TREADMILL
Your treadmill should be level for optimum use. Once you have placed your treadmill where you
intend to use it, raise or lower one or both of the adjustable levelers located on the bottom of
the treadmill frame. A carpenter's level is recommended. If your treadmill is not level, the running
belt may not track properly. Once you have leveled your treadmill, lock the levelers in place by
tightening the nuts against the frame.
