PROPER USAGE

Your treadmill is capable of reaching high speeds. Always start off using a slower speed and adjust the speed in 

small increments to reach a higher speed level. Never leave the treadmill unattended while it is running. When 

not in use, remove the safety key, turn the on/off switch to off and unplug the power cord. Make sure to follow 

the MAINTENANCE schedule located on page 33 in this manual. Keep your body and head facing forward. Do not 

attempt to turn around or look backwards while the treadmill is running. Stop your workout immediately if you 

feel pain, faint, dizzy or are short of breath.

Do not operate the treadmill if the power cord or plug is damaged.

If the treadmill appears to not be working properly, do not use the treadmill.

FOLDING

Firmly grasp the back end of the treadmill. Carefully 

lift the end of the treadmill deck into the upright 

position  until  the  foot  lock  latch  engages  and 

securely locks the deck into position. Make sure the 

deck is securely latched before letting go. To unfold, 

firmly grasp the back end of the treadmill. Gently 

press down on the foot lock latch with your foot until 

the lock latch disengages. Carefully lower the deck 

to the ground. 

NOTE: The foot lock latch is located 

on the bottom right side of the deck.

MOVING

Your treadmill has a pair of transport wheels built 

into the frame. To move, make sure the treadmill is 

folded and securely latched. Then firmly grasp the 

handlebars, tilt the treadmill back and roll. 

Our Treadmills are heavy, use care and additional help if necessary when moving. 

Do not attempt to move or transport treadmill unless it is in the upright, folded 

position  with  the  lock  latch  secured.  Failure  to  follow  these  instructions  could 

result in injury.

WARNING

WARNING

CENTERING THE RUNNING BELT

The running belt has been properly adjusted at the 

factory before it was shipped. At times the belt can 

move off-center during shipment. Before operating the 

treadmill, make sure the belt is centered and remains 

centered to maintain smooth operation.

CAUTION:

 Do not run belt faster than 1/2 mph while 

centering. Keep fingers, hair and clothing away from 

belt at all times.

If the running belt is too far to the right side:

 

With the treadmill running at 1/2 mph, turn the right 

adjustment bolt clockwise 1/4 TURN at a time (using 

the supplied Allen wrench). Check the belt alignment. 

Allow belt to run a full cycle to gauge if more adjustment 

is needed. Repeat if necessary, until the belt remains 

centered during use.

If the running belt is too far to the left side:

 

With the treadmill running at 1/2 mph, turn the right 

adjustment bolt counter-clockwise 1/4 TURN at a time 

(using  the  supplied  Allen  wrench).  Check  the  belt 

alignment. Allow belt to run a full cycle to gauge if more 

adjustment  is  needed.  Repeat  if  necessary,  until  the 

belt remains centered during use.

 TENSIONING THE RUNNING BELT

The  running  belt  has  been  properly  adjusted  at  the 

factory  before  it  was  shipped.  At  times  the  belt  can 

move off-center during shipment.

CAUTION:

  Running  belt  should  NOT  be  moving  during 

tensioning.  Over-tightening  the  running  belt  can 

cause  excessive  wear  on  the  treadmill  as  well  as  its 

components.  Never over-tighten the belt.

If you can feel a slipping sensation when running on the 

treadmill, the running belt must be tightened. In most 

cases,  the  belt  has  stretched  from  use,  causing  the 

belt to slip. This is a normal and common adjustment. 

To  eliminate  this  slipping, 

TURN  THE  TREADMILL  OFF 

and tension 

BOTH THE REAR ROLLER BOLTS

 using the 

supplied  Allen  wrench,  turning  them  1/4  TURN  to  the 

right  as  shown.  Turn  the  treadmill  on  and  check  for 

slipping.  Repeat  if  necessary,  but  NEVER  TURN  the 

roller bolts more than 1/4 turn at a time. Belt is properly 

tensioned when the slipping sensation is gone.

Belt is too far to the right side

Belt is too far to the left side
