OPERATION AND ADJUSTMENT
THE PERFORMANT LUBE
TM
WALKING BELT
Your treadmill features a walking belt coated with PERFORMANT LUBE
TM
, a high-performance lubricant. IMPOR-
TANT: Never apply silicone spray or other substances to the walking belt or the walking platform. Such
substances will deteriorate the walking belt and cause excessive wear.
HOW TO PLUG IN THE POWER CORD
This product must be earthed. If it should malfunction or break
down, earthing provides a path of least resistance for electric
current to reduce the risk of electric shock. This product is equipped
with a cord having an equipment-earthing conductor and an earth-
ing plug.
Two power cords are included. Select the one that will fit your
outlet. See drawing 1. Plug the indicated end of the power cord
into the socket on the treadmill. Next, lift the tab on the ferrite
box and clamp the ferrite box around the power cord. See
drawing 2. Plug the power cord into an appropriate outlet that
is properly installed and earthed in accordance with all local
codes and ordinances. Important: The treadmill is not compati-
ble with GFCI-equipped outlets.
If the power cord is damaged, it must be replaced with a manufac-
turer-recommended power cord.
DANGER:
Improper connection of the equip-
ment-earthing conductor can result in an increased risk
of electric shock. Check with a qualified electrician or
serviceman if you are in doubt as to whether the prod-
uct is properly earthed. Do not modify the plug provided
with the product—if it will not fit the outlet, have a
proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician.
