CAUTION: Before beginning any fitness program, you should have a complete physical examination by your physician.

Working Out on the 904 Treadmill

Before using your treadmill, we recommend that you follow these instructions and go through a preliminary demonstration of the treadmill. Then, you will be more familiar with the treadmill when you begin your workout. Diagram 13 shows a fully assembled 904 treadmill with the handrails resting on the safety stops.

When using the treadmill, follow these general guidelines:

•At the beginning of a workout, take several minutes to bring your heart rate into your training zone, as shown in Diagram 15 on page 22.

•After your workout, walk slowly for several minutes to cool down your body and lower your pulse rate.

•Gently stretch your lower body and back before and after a workout to help prevent stiffness or soreness.

To use the 904 treadmill, follow these steps:

1.Step onto the running belt and grasp the handrails.

Important: Lock the handrails into an upright position until you are comfortable with the motion of the running belt. Remove the handrail’s locking pins once you are familiar with the treadmill and are ready to incorporate arm movement with your walking or running stride for a “total body” workout.
