PLACEMENT IN YOUR HOME
To make exercise a desirable daily activity for you, the treadmill should be placed in a comfort-
able and attractive setting. This treadmill is designed to use minimal floor space and to fit nicely
in your home.
Do not place or operate the treadmill outdoors.
Do not place the treadmill near water or in high moisture content environment.
Make sure the power cord is not in the path of heavy traffic.
It is highly recommended to place a dedicated treadmill mat beneath your treadmill.
A dedicated mat provides superior stability and firmness for a proper workout.
Locate the treadmill at least 4 feet from walls or furniture.
Allow a safety area of 79” x 39” (2000mm x 1000mm) behind the treadmill
so that you can easily get on and off the treadmill and adjust the tension of the belt.
Occasionally, after extended use, you will find a fine black dust below your treadmill. This is
normal wear and DOES NOT mean there is anything wrong with your treadmill. This dust can
be easily removed with a vacuum cleaner. If you wish to prevent this dust from getting on your
floor or carpet, place a dedicated treadmill mat beneath your treadmill.
LEVELING THE BASE
It is important that you place the treadmill on a firm level surface. If the ground is uneven, you
may level the treadmill with levelers located under the deck. Make sure the back of the deck is
not higher than the front. If adjustments are to be made, check to see if the leverage feet, as
shown below, touch the ground firmly. If there is a gap, turn the leverage foot counterclockwise
to eliminate the gap.
Make sure the running deck is level to the ground. If the deck is positioned so that you are run-
ning downhill, it will cause premature damage to the electronic system
