PROPER EXERCISE FORM
The instructions on pages 7 to 9 of this manual explain the operation and adjustment of the treadmill. For maxi- mum treadmill performance, it is important to maintain proper form when walking on the treadmill. The drawing below demonstrates the proper form. Be sure to remember the following important guidelines:
•Always hold the handrails when stepping on and off the treadmill, and when exercising on
the treadmill.
• Always stand on the foot rails when turning on the power or starting the walking belt. The walk- ing belt may not start while you are standing on it.
• While walking on the treadmill, rest your hands on the handrail, keep your back straight, and lean forward slightly. Do not lean back or push forward against the walking belt with your feet. If you slow the walking belt with your feet, it may come to a stop. If this happens, stand on the foot rails until the walking begins to move again.
• To change the incline level of the treadmill, refer to page 9. Do not attempt to change the incline level any other way. The incline range of the treadmill is 11% to 14%. This range is ideal for maximum treadmill performance.
