THE BASICS

Your treadmill is made up of two main sections: the base and the pedestal.

The base of the treadmill consists of a metal frame, a shock-absorbing deck system and a powerful continuous-duty horsepower DC motor. The motor powers a pulley system which moves the running belt over the deck. (See figure 1, page 1-4)

The pedestal mounts on the top of the frame. It places the displays, information readout and touch keys within easy sight and reach.

IMPORTANT: Do not operate unless all six screws are fastened securely. Be sure screws and lock washers thread into the holes in pedestal. Reverse procedure whenever removing the pedestal. Remove pedestal console only while treadmill is at zero grade and unplugged.

ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENT:

Your TRUE treadmill requires a dedicated

120 VAC 20 amp grounded outlet circuit. WARNING: Do not use an extension cord or an ungrounded outlet. The ground helps prevent electrical damage to your treadmill and enhances your safety by preventing shock. This grounded outlet is critical for the HRC system to function properly. NOTE: Units

Place your treadmill on a clean, level surface. Make sure the electrical cord easily reaches a grounded three-pronged outlet and has enough slack to allow the deck to incline unhindered by the cord. Do not allow the treadmill assembly to rest on the cord. Although your treadmill is designed to operate on most carpeted surfaces, some deeply padded or heavy shag carpets can cause damage to the unit. To prevent damage to your treadmill or carpet, have someone stand on the deck and make sure the treadmill belt doesnÕt touch the carpet at any point.

Your TRUE treadmill is designed for indoor use only. Always keep the control panel out of direct sunlight.

BELT ADJUSTMENTS

Your treadmillÕs running belt has been properly aligned at the factory. However, when the treadmill is used on an uneven surface, please follow these instructions:

PREFERRED METHOD

Level the treadmill by placing shims 1/8Ó to 3/8Ó thick under the front wheel and rear shock absorber on one side. NOTE: This method will provide extended belt life by keeping both rollers parallel. Adjusting the belt tracking by using the roller bolts will cause the belt to stretch on one side.
