J9F: HAND RAIL AND INTERFACE

(FIGURES 3, 4, 5 AND 6)

Turn the user interface until the holes for the locking screws are in position and then attach by tightening the 4 screws (M6x12) on the rear side. Cut the hand rail ribbon and place 2 pieces of styrox foam under the front end of the treadmill. Attach the folding frame to the treadmill with

3 Allen screws (M6x16) on both sides. Remove the styrox foam pieces. The running base must be held up during the gas spring installation, so you will need another person to support the running base. Thread the upper end of the gas spring (M8 thread) completely into the hexagonal bushing. NOTE! Attach the gas spring below the locking fork. Thread the gas spring by hand; do not use tools as these may damage the piston rod. Attach the lower end of the gas spring to the folding frame with an M8 screw and a nut. Lower the running base carefully and place the multi-purpose rack with the plastic end pieces on the top of

the hand rail, pull the lower edge of the rack over the support bolts on the hand rail sides and attach the plastic end pieces with screws to the top of the hand rail. Attach the 2 screws (M6x12) on the front side of the interface and remove the protective film from the display.

POWER CORD AND

GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS

Plug the socket end of the power cord into the treadmill at the lower right front corner. Before connecting the device to a power source, make sure that local voltage matches that indicated on the type plate. The treadmill operates at either 230 V or 120 V (US-version). Turn on the power using the switch next to the socket on the treadmill.

This treadmill must be grounded. If it should malfunction or breakdown, grounding provides a path of least resistance for electrical current to reduce the risk of electrical shock. This product is equipped with a cord having an equipment- grounded conductor and a grounding plug.

The plug must be plugged into an appropriate outlet that is properly installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances. Do not use extension cables when connecting the equipment to the power source.

DANGER! Improper connection of the equipment-grounding conductor can result in a risk of electric shock. Check with a qualified electrician or serviceman if you are in doubt as to whether the product is properly grounded. Do not modify the plug provided with the product - if it will not fit the outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician.

NOTE! The version for use on a nominal 120-volt circuit has a grounding plug that

looks like the plug illustrated. Make sure that the product is connected to an outlet having the same configuration as the plug. No adapter should be used with this product.

SAFETY TETHER KEY

The treadmill cannot be used if the tether key is not properly installed in the meter base; if the key is removed from its place near the electronic display, the treadmill will immediately stop. Insert the safety tether key into the meter base. Ensure that the clip of the safety tether key is properly attached to your clothing; as the cord tightens, make sure the clip does not detach itself from your clothing before the safety tether key disconnects from the user interface.

E X E R C I S I N G

No matter what your goal, you’ll get the best results by training at the right level of effort, and the best measure is your own heart-rate. First find your maximum heart-rate i.e. where the rate doesn’t increase with added effort. If you don’t know your maximum heart-rate, please use the following formula as a guide:

Women: 226 - age Men: 220 - age

These are average values and the maximum varies from person to person. The maximum heart-rate diminishes on average by one point per year. If you belong to one of the risk groups mentioned earlier, ask a doctor to measure your maximum heart-rate for you. We have defined three different heart-rate zones to help you with targeted training.

Beginner: 50-60 % of maximum heart-rate Also suitable for weight-watchers, convalescents and those who haven’t exercised for a long time. Three sessions a week of at least a half-hour each is recommended. Regular exercise considerably improves beginners’ respiratory and circulatory performance and you will quickly feel your improvement.

Trainer: 60-70 % of maximum heart-rate Perfect for improving and maintaining fitness. Even reasonable effort develops the heart and lungs effectively, training for a minimum of 30 minutes at least three times a week. To improve your condition still further, increase either frequency or effort, but not both at the same time!

Active trainer:

70-80 % of maximum heart-rate Exercise at this level suits only the fittest and presupposes long-endurance workouts.
