IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

WARNING – Read all instructions before using this appliance.

DANGER – To reduce the risk of electric shock disconnect your SRVO from the electrical outlet prior to cleaning and/or service work.

WARNING – To reduce the risk of burns, fire, electric shock, or injury to persons, install the treadmill on a flat level surface with access to a 120-volt, 15-amp grounded outlet with only the treadmill plugged into the circuit. DO NOT USE AN EXTENSION CORD UNLESS IT IS A 14AWG OR BETTER, WITH ONLY ONE OUTLET ON THE END: DO NOT ATTEMPT TO DISABLE THE GROUNDED PLUG BY USING IMPROPER ADAPTERS, OR IN ANY WAY MODIFY THE CORD SET. A serious shock or fire hazard may result along with computer malfunctions. See Grounding Instructions, page 3.

• Do not operate SRVO on deeply padded, plush or shag carpet. Damage to both carpet and SRVO may result.
• Provide a minimum of 3 1/2 feet clearance between the SRVO and any fixed object.
• Keep children under the age of 13 away from this machine. There are obvious pinch points and other caution areas that can cause harm.
• Keep hands away from all moving parts.
• Never operate the SRVO if it has a damaged cord or plug. If the SRVO is not working properly, call your dealer.
• Keep the cord away from heated surfaces.
• Do not operate where aerosol spray products are being used or where oxygen is being administered. Sparks from the motor may ignite a highly gaseous environment.
• Never drop or insert any object into any openings.
• Do not use outdoors.
• To disconnect, turn all controls to the off position, then remove the plug from the outlet.
• Do not attempt to use your SRVO for any purpose other than for the purpose it is intended.
• Wear proper shoes. High heels, dress shoes, sandals or bare feet are not suitable for use on your SRVO. Quality athletic shoes are recommended.
• This appliance is not intended for use by persons with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have been given supervision or instruction concerning use of the appliance by a person responsible for their safety.
• The safety level of the equipment can be maintained only if it is examined regularly for damage and wear, e.g. ropes, pulleys, connection points.
• Replace defective components immediately and/or keep the equipment out of use until repair.

IMPORTANT ELECTRICAL INSTRUCTIONS

WARNING!
Route the power cord away from any moving part of the SRVO including transport wheels. NEVER remove any cover without first disconnecting AC power.
If voltage varies by ten percent (10%) or more, the performance of your SRVO may be affected. Such conditions are not covered under your warranty. If you suspect the
voltage is low, contact your local power company or a licensed electrician for proper testing. NEVER expose SRVO to rain or moisture. This product is NOT designed for use outdoors, near a pool or spa, or in any other high humidity environment. The maximum operating temperature specification is 40 degrees C, and humidity is 95% non-condensing (no water drops forming on surfaces). Circuit breakers: Avoid AFCI/GFCI circuit breakers if possible. These breakers may trip occasionally during exercise because of the high inrush currents of the SRVO drive electronics and motor. This is an issue that affects all fitness equipment brands. New laws in your area may require these breakers. If you do have these breakers and outlets in your home, and are experiencing nuisance tripping, you should check if there are any other devices plugged into the same circuit. Some examples of devices that may also cause tripping are fluorescent lights with electronic ballasts, coffee maker, space heater, hair drier. Optimally the treadmill should be the only device plugged into the circuit. Our SRVO have surge suppressors built in to help avoid nuisance tripping. We have tested several AFCI/GFCI breakers and outlets with our products. Brands we have tested are: Eaton (Cutler Hammer Series), Leviton (Smart lock pro) and Schneider Electric (Canadian home series). These breakers do not trip in our testing, when connected to SRVO, as long as no other devices are plugged into the same circuit.

GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS

This product must be grounded. If SRVO should malfunction or breakdown, grounding provides a path of least resistance for electric current, reducing the risk of electric shock. This product is equipped with a cord having an equipment-grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into an appropriate outlet that is properly installed and groundedin accordance with all local codes and ordinances. DANGER – Improper connection of the equipment-grounding conductor can result in a risk of electric shock. Check with a qualified electrician or serviceman if you are in doubt as to whether the product is properly grounded. 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. This product is for use on a nominal 120-volt circuit, and has a grounding plug that looks like the plug illustrated below. A temporary adapter that looks like the adapter illustrated below may be used to connect this plug to a 2-pole receptacle as shown below if a properly grounded outlet is not available. The temporary adapter should be used only until a properly grounded outlet, (shown below) can be installed by a qualified electrician. The green colored rigid ear-
lug, or the like, extending from the adapter, must be connected to a permanent ground such as a properly grounded outlet box cover. Whenever the adapter is used, it must be held in place by a metal screw.

IMPORTANT OPERATION INSTRUCTIONS

• NEVER operate SRVO without reading and completely understanding the results of any operational change you request from the computer.
• NEVER use your SRVO during an electrical storm. Surges may occur in your household power supply that could damage SRVO components. Unplug SRVO during an electrical storm as a precaution.
• Use caution while participating in other activities while using your SRVO; such as watching television, reading, etc. These distractions may cause you to lose balance; which may result in serious injury.
• Do not use excessive pressure on console control keys. They are precision set to function properly with little finger pressure. Pushing harder is not going to make the unit go faster or slower. If you feel the buttons are not functioning properly with normal pressure contact your SOLE dealer.

   • Different flashing sequences indicates different states of the switch
     Connecting| Red/blue light flashes alternately
     ---|---
     Connected| Blue light flashes 5 times
     Unpaired| Red light flashes 5 times
     Button clicked/released| Blue light lit/off
     Low Battery| Red light flashes for 10 seconds.
3. APP Connection

4. Switch mode
   There are three resistance modes for SRVO, Standard mode, Eccentric mode, and Isokinetic Mode. Press and hold Start/Stop button for three seconds, then turn the knob to switch between mode.Mode| Description
   ---|---

Mode 1 Standard

| ●   Constant resistance(isotonic) through out range of motion

Mode 2 Eccentric

|

●   Eccentric mode means that the resistance is greater when the cable is retracting, and the resistance is less when the cable is pulled up.

●   The set weight is the weight of the eccentric movement (lowering the cable). For example, if resistance is set to 10KG, the concentric stage of (raising) is less than 10KG, and the eccentric stage (lowering) is 10KG. This mode provides more impactful training weight, and more stimulation for muscle hypertrophy.

Mode 3 Isokinetic

| ●   In isokinetic mode the pulling speed remains constant and the resistance varies. The faster you are pulling, the greater the resistance; the slower you are pulling, the lighter the resistance. This training mode provides full muscle stimulation through out the range of motion. There are two levels, fast and slow for different resistance

and speed needs.

GENERAL MAINTENANCE

• Wipe down all areas in the sweat path with a damp cloth after each workout.
• Pull cable all the way out once every week and wipe down cable. Make sure machine is unplugged when doing so. After cable is dried, turn on machine and let cable retract.
• Make sure to unplug machine after use.
• Make sure machine is stored at cool and dry place.
• The safety and integrity designed into the machine can only be maintained when the equipment is regularly examined for damage and repaired. It is the sole responsibility of the user/owner or facility operator to ensure that regular maintenance is performed. Worn or damaged components shall be replaced immediately or the equipment removed from service until the repair is made

DIAGNOSIS GUIDE

1. The wireless switch is unresponsive.
   • Make sure the battery is installed correctly. If the blue and red light is flashing at the same time, that means the battery was not installed properly. If only blue light is showing, that means the battery was installed correctly and ready to pair SRVO and wireless switch again.
2. No resistance on the cable
   • Switch to mode 3 isokinetic mode. Pull the cable all the way out, and slowly release the cable. Restart the machine after cable is retracted all the way.
3. Cable stuck during the session
   • Release resistance, pull the cable out forcefully. Slowly release the cable. Let the cable retract all the way, machine should operate properly. Avoid pulling the cable at high speed with less than 10 lbs of resistance.
4. Cable does not retract when machine is powered on.
   • Unplug the machine and pull the cable all the way out. Then restart the machine.
   • If cable still does not retract, make sure the machine stays on, pull cable all the way out until you hear a banging sound. Banging sounds means cable is pulled all the way out. Slowly release the cable, then restart the machine.
5. Display does not light up
   • Reset the power switch of the machine.
   • If cooling fan is not running, that means there is no electricity running through machine. Make sure the machine is plugged in and power switch is turned on.
   • f the cooling fan is running but display does not light up. Engage resistance and see if there is weight applied onto cable. If resistance works properly, that means the display screen is defective. If resistance does not work properly, that means the control board is defective. Contact seller for further assistance.
