Following all safety instructions in Section 1.1 and move the treadmill to the location in which it will be used. See Section 7 for the dimensions of the product footprint (assembled dimensions).
safeTy ClearanCes
The following information is supplied as regional reference data regarding safety clearances around the exterior of the treadmill.
•eU: The European EN957 Safety Standard requires a 2 meter (6.5 feet) minimum from the rear of the treadmill to any object or surface.
•U.s. and other regions: The ASTM International (ASTM ) F2115 - 05 Standard recommends the minimum dimensions to be 0.5 meter (1.64 feet) on each side of the treadmill and 1 meter (3.28 feet) behind the rearward most portion of the usable moving surface or 2 meters (6.5 feet) behind the furthest rearward obstruction to emergency egress from the treadmill.
After placing the unit where it will be used, check its stability. If there is even a slight rocking motion or the unit is not stable, determine which stabilizing leg is not resting on the floor. To adjust, loosen the JAM NUT (A), and turn the STABILIZING LEG (B) until the rocking motion ceases, and both stabilizing legs rest firmly on the floor.
Retighten the JAM NUT.
note: It is extremely important that the stabilizing leg be correctly adjusted for proper operation. An unbalanced unit may cause striding belt misalignment. A bubble level is recommended to ensure proper leveling.
PoWer sWITCH
Located on the front panel at the base of the treadmill, the ON/OFF switch has two positions: "I" (one) for ON and "0" (zero) for OFF.
CenTerInG THe belT
After installing and levelling the treadmill, check the belt to ensure that it is tracking properly. First, plug the power cord into an appropriate outlet. See Electrical Requirements at the beginning of this section for details. Then turn the treadmill ON.
Have one person stand on the platforms on either side of the treadmill frame. Do not stand on the belt at this time. Press the QUICK START key, and increase the speed to 4.0 miles per hour (mph), or 6.4 kilometers per hour (kph), using the SPEED UP arrow.
If the striding belt moves to the right while it is running, have a second person turn the right tension bolt a
If the striding belt moves to the left, turn the left tension bolt a
Repeat these adjustments until striding belt appears centered. Allow the belt to continue running for several minutes to be sure that the tracking is stabilized.
note: Do not exceed one full turn of the adjusting screws in either direction. If, after one full turn, the belt does not track properly, contact Customer Support Services.
