of electric shock. Check with a qualified electrician or service provider 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 local voltage circuit and has a grounding
plug. No adapter should be used with this product. This product must be used
on a dedicated circuit. To determine if you are on a dedicated circuit, shut
off the power to that circuit and observe if any other devices lose power. If
so, move devices to a different circuit.
Note: There are usually multiple outlets on one circuit.
WARNING!
Connect this exercise product to a properly grounded outlet only. Never
operate product with a damaged cord or plug even if it is working properly.
Never operate any product if it appears damaged, or has been immersed in
water. Contact Customer Tech Support for replacement or repair.
LOCATION OF THE TREADMILL
Place the treadmill on a level and stable surface. There should be one foot of
clearance in front of the treadmill for the power cord. Please leave a clear
zone behind the treadmill that is at least the width of the treadmill and at
least 79” (2 meters) long. This zone must be clear of any obstruction and
provide the user a clear exit path from the machine. In case of an emergency,
place both hands on the side arm rests to hold yourself up and place your feet
onto the side rails. For ease of access, there should be an accessible space
preferentially on both sides of the treadmill equal to 2 ft (0.6 meters) to
allow a user access to the treadmill from either side.
Do not place the treadmill in any area that will block any vent or air
openings. The treadmill should not be located in a garage, covered patio, near
water or outdoors. WARNING!
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.
FOLDING TREADMILLS
Some treadmills have a deck that can fold for storage and transport. To fold,
firmly grasp the back end of the treadmill. Carefully lift the end of the
treadmill deck into the upright position until the lock latch engages and
securely locks the deck into position. Make sure the deck is securely latched
before letting go.

spring open, potentially causing injury. Transport unit ONLY on the ground,
and ONLY after it is fully assembled and in the upright folded position with
the lock latch secured. If you must lift treadmill or disassemble treadmill to
move it to a different location, carefully follow these steps to reduce the
risk of injury and to prevent the gas-shocks from springing open!
STEPS:
- STRAP: Use zip ties on both the right and left sides of the treadmill to securely strap the deck frame (the part of the frame that has the running surface) to the folding frame (the part of the frame that stays on the ground when the treadmill is folded up into the storage position).
- TEST: Once the zip ties are securely in place, try to lift the deck into the folded-up storage position. The zip ties should prevent the deck from being folded up.
- DOUBLE-CHECK: Carefully tip treadmill onto its side, keeping fingers and hands clear of the folding frame of the treadmill. The zip ties should prevent the high pressure gas-shocks from springing open.
- DISASSEMBLY (if required). If disassembly of treadmill masts is necessary to relocate treadmill, carefully remove console and masts from the treadmill frame, taking care to protect the console cable where it leaves the mast and enters the treadmill frame. Refer to Assembly section of your Owner’s Manual for more information.
- RE-CHECK: Go back to steps 2 and 3 to re-test and re-check zip ties to ensure that they prevent the high pressure gas shocks from springing open.
- MOVE: Move treadmill to its new location. Take care to keep fingers and hands clear of the folding frame and the area near the gas-shocks.
- RELOCATE AND REASSEMBLE: Once treadmill is placed where it is to be used, reassemble treadmill (if necessary). Refer to Assembly section your Owner’s Manual for more information. Check to make sure that all bolts and screws are fully tightened and that treadmill is operational.
- CUT ZIP TIES: At this time, you may cut the zip ties to release the deck from being strapped to the folding frame. Once the zip ties are cut, DO NOT lift treadmill or turn it upside down or place treadmill on its side. Treadmill has high pressure gas-shocks which can spring open, potentially causing injury.

Stop your workout immediately if you feel pain, faint, dizzy or are short of
breath.
CAUTION – RISK OF INJURY TO PERSONS
While you are preparing to use the treadmill, do not stand on the belt. Place
your feet on the side rails before starting the treadmill. Start walking on
the belt only after the belt has begun to move. Never start the treadmill at a
fast running speed and attempt to jump on!
USING THE SAFETY KEY
Your treadmill will not start unless the safety key is placed in position.
Attach the clip end securely to your clothing. This safety key is designed to
cut the power to the treadmill if you should fall. Check the operation of the
safety key every 2 weeks.
WARNING
Never use the treadmill without securing the safety key clip to your clothing.
Pull on the safety key clip first to make sure it will not come off your
clothing.
POWER
Your treadmill is powered by a power supply. The power must be plugged into
the power jack, which is located in the front of the machine near the
stabilizer tube. Some treadmills have a power switch, located next to the
power jack. Make sure it is in the on position. Unplug cord when not in use.
NOTE: Some treadmills have an on/off switch located behind the console.
WARNING!
Never operate product if it has a damaged cord or plug, if it is not working
properly, if it has been damaged, or immersed in water. Please reference
contact information on the back cover of the INFORMATION CARD for assistance.
LEVELING THE TREADMILL
Your treadmill should be level for optimum use.
Once you have placed your treadmill where you intend to use it, raise or lower
one or both of the adjustable levelers located on the bottom of the treadmill
frame. A carpenter’s level is recommended. If your treadmill is not level, the
running belt may not track properly. Once you have leveled your treadmill,
lock the levelers in place by tightening the nuts against the frame.
TROUBLESHOOTING
COMMON PRODUCT QUESTIONS
ARE THE SOUNDS MY TREADMILL MAKES NORMAL?
All treadmills make a certain type of thumping noise due to the belt riding
over the rollers, especially new treadmills. This noise will diminish over
time, although it may not totally go away. Over time, the belt will stretch,
causing the belt to ride smoother over the rollers.
WHY IS THE TREADMILL I PURCHASED LOUDER THAN THE ONE AT THE STORE?
All fitness products seem quieter in a large store showroom because there is
generally more background noise than in your home. Also, there will be less
reverberation on a carpeted concrete floor than on a wood overlay floor.
Sometimes a heavy rubber mat will help reduce reverberation through the floor.
If a fitness product is placed close to a wall, there will be more reflected
noise.
WHEN SHOULD I BE WORRIED ABOUT A NOISE?
As long as the sounds your treadmill makes are no louder than a normal
conversational tone of voice, it is considered normal noise.
BASIC TROUBLESHOOTING
PROBLEM: The console does not light up.
SOLUTION: Verify the following:
Does the red light on the ON/OFF switch light up?
NOTE: Some treadmill models do not have a switch that lights up. If this
is the case, please proceed with the yes and no solutions below.
If yes :
-
Turn the power off, unplug the power cable and wait 60 seconds. Remove motor cover.
Wait until all red LED lights have gone off on the motor control board before proceeding.
Next verify that none of the wires connecting to the lower board are loose or disconnected. -
Double-check that all connections are secure, especially the console cable. Unplug and reconnect the console cable to verify.
-
Make sure the console cable is not pinched or damaged in any way.
-
Plug the treadmill in, turn the power switch on and look for any lit LEDs on the motor control board.
If no: -
Verify that the outlet the machine is plugged into is functional. Double-check that the breaker has not tripped, it is on a dedicated 15-amp circuit, it is not on a GFCI-equipped outlet, and it is not plugged into a power strip/surge protector or extension cord.
-
Verify that the power cord is not pinched or damaged and is properly plugged into the outlet AND the machine.
-
Verify that the power switch is turned to the ON position.
PROBLEM: The console reads SAFETY KEY OFF or only displays dashes.
SOLUTION: Verify the following:
- Verify the safety key is securely in place.
- If using a magnetic key, make sure the key is magnetized.
FOR TREADMILLS WITH SPEAKERS:
PROBLEM: When MP3 player is connected there is no sound coming from the
speakers or the speakers sound fuzzy.
SOLUTION: Make sure audio cable is plugged in securely to both the
console and MP3 Player jacks.
BASIC TROUBLESHOOTING
PROBLEM: The belt does not move or moves briefly, but the console works.
SOLUTION: Verify the following:
- Make sure you are following the recommendations and power guidelines on pages 4 and 5 of this TREADMILL GUIDE. The unit should be on a dedicated 15-amp circuit and not on a GFCI-equipped outlet. Do not plug the machine into a power strip/surge protector or extension cord.
- Check for any belt movement. If so, make note of how far or how long it moves before stopping.
- Try to move the belt by hand. If not, the drive belt may have come off or the motor bearings may have seized.
- Turn the treadmill off and unplug it from the outlet. Remove the plastic motor cover located in front of the machine by taking out the Phillips screws. Check the drive belt for proper alignment.
- With the cover still off, check over the wire and cable connections, as they may have become loose or disconnected during shipping or assembly. Make sure connections are secure and no wires are crimped, damaged, disconnected or burnt.
PROBLEM: The incline does not move, won’t go down or does not seem to be
at the right level.
SOLUTION: Verify the following:
- Make sure you are following the recommendations and power guidelines on pages 4 and 5 of this TREADMILL GUIDE. The unit should be on a dedicated 15-amp circuit and not on a GFCIequipped outlet. Do not plug the machine into a power strip/surge protector or extension cord.
- Make sure the console shows a change on the display when the elevation buttons are pressed.
- Turn the treadmill off and unplug it from the outlet. Verify the console cable connections at the top of the mast are connected securely. Make sure all of the multicolored wires are fully inserted into the cable harness.
- Remove the plastic motor cover located in front of the machine by taking out the Phillips screws. Check over the wire and cable connections, as they may have become loose or disconnected during shipping or assembly. Make sure connections are secure and no wires are crimped, damaged, disconnected or burnt.
PROBLEM: No audio comes out of the speakers, but the headphones work.
SOLUTION: Verify the following:
- Turn the treadmill off and unplug it from the outlet. Remove the plastic motor cover located in front of the machine by taking out the Phillips screws.
- Check the wire and cable connections to the speaker board, near the motor control board.
PROBLEM: The treadmill circuit breaker trips during a workout.
SOLUTION: Verify the following:
- Make sure the treadmill is plugged into a dedicated 15-amp circuit.
- Verify that you do not have the machine on an extension cord or surge protector.
- Confirm that the machine is not plugged into a GFCI-equipped outlet or on a circuit that has a GFCI-equipped outlet on it.
PROBLEM: The running belt does not stay centered during a workout.
SOLUTION: Verify the following:
- Make sure the treadmill is on a level surface.
- Verify that the belt is properly tightened and centered (Refer to the TENSIONING and CENTERING THE RUNNING BELT sections for detailed directions).
PROBLEM: Operating speed appears inaccurate.
SOLUTION:
- Turn the treadmill off and unplug it from the wall.
- Remove the screws from the motor cover screws using a Phillips screwdriver.
- Verify that the optical sensor is plugged into the motor control board.
- Inspect the speed sensor cable/connection for any visible damage.
PROBLEM: At higher incline levels, a message reading “Speed Range Error –
Ending Workout” appears.
SOLUTION:
- This is a safety feature that automatically cuts power to the drive motor when the speed is out of range due to the combination of the load on the belt and high degree of incline
- To prevent an automatic end to your workout, reduce the incline level percentage.
TROUBLESHOOTING HEART RATE (GRIP-PULSE ONLY)
Check your exercise environment for sources of interference such as
fluorescent lights, computers, underground fencing, home security systems or
appliances containing large motors.
These items may cause erratic heart rate readouts.
You may experience an erratic readout under the following conditions:
- Gripping the heart rate handlebars too tight. Try to maintain moderate pressure while holding onto the heart rate handlebars.
- Constant movement and vibration due to constantly holding the heart rate handlebars while exercising. If you are receiving erratic heart rate readouts, try to only hold the grips long enough to monitor your heart rate.
- When you are breathing heavily during a workout.
- When your hands are constricted by wearing a ring.
- When your hands are dry or cold. Try to moisten your palms by rubbing them together to warm.

MAINTENANCE SCHEDULE
LUBRICATING THE RUNNING BELT
EVERY 3 MONTHS OR 300 MILES
It is necessary to lubricate your treadmill running deck every three months or
300 miles to maintain optimal performance. Once the treadmill records 300
miles it will display the message “LUBE” or “LUBE BELT.” The treadmill will
not operate while the message is showing. Your treadmill came with a bottle of
100% silicone lubricant, which can be used for two applications.
Go to this website to purchase additional Silicone
Lubricant:
www.johnsonfit.com/lubricant
Tools Needed:
- Blue-handled T-wrench or Allen wrench
- 100% silicone oil
PROCEDURE:
-
Turn off the treadmill with the on/off switch and unplug the power cord at the wall outlet.
-
Using the T-wrench or Allen wrench, loosen the rear roller bolts 10-15 counter-clockwise turns. This should give the belt enough slack for you to lift it.
-
Lift the belt as far as you can and squirt the silicone oil in a zigzag pattern across the entire running deck surface.
Use 1/2 bottle of silicone lubricant. Do not apply the silicone oil on top of the running belt. Lay the running belt down and then tighten both rear roller bolts clockwise the same number of turns loosened. -
After you have applied lubricant, plug in the power cord, and insert the safety key. Reset the Lube Belt message by first pressing and holding the SPEED UP button, then STOP button and hold BOTH buttons for 5-7 seconds.
-
Stay off of the machine and press START. Allow the belt to run at 3 mph for 3 minutes to begin spreading the silicone. Then walk on the machine at a comfortable speed for 3 minutes to complete spreading the silicone and to check the running belt for proper tension and alignment.
-
Once the belt is centered and tensioned, stop the belt. Wipe any excess oil from the sides with a damp cloth.
Press any key to suspend the lubrication warning message until after your next
workout.
Note: Some older models may require you to hold stop for 5 seconds to
suspend message for 5 miles of use.
If your treadmill has air shocks under the deck for lift assistance, lubricate
the silver air shock tube with Teflon-based spray found at your local hardware
or bike store.
Visit the Customer Support section of our website to view “how-to” maintenance
videos. Please contact Customer Tech Support with questions about applying
lubricant to your treadmill.
TENSIONING THE RUNNING BELT
For more information and/or how-to videos, visit our Customer Support section

INFORMATION CARD.
WARNING
Running belt should NOT be moving during tensioning. Overtightening 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 ¼ turn to the right
(clockwise) as shown. Turn the treadmill on and check for slipping. Repeat if
necessary, but never turn the roller bolts more than ¼ turn at a time. Belt is
properly tensioned when the slipping sensation is gone.
CENTERING THE RUNNING BELT
For more information and/or how-to videos, visit our Customer Support section
on our website. Contact information is located on the back page of the
INFORMATION CARD.

clothing away from belt at all times.
If the running belt is too far to the right side: Using the supplied
Allen wrench and with the treadmill running at 1 mph turn the LEFT adjustment
bolt counter-clockwise a ¼ turn and wait for the belt to adjust itself.
Use the motor cover marking or part line as a reference for alignment.
Repeat if necessary, until the belt remains centered during use.
If the running belt is too far to the left side: Using the supplied Allen
wrench and with the treadmill running at 1 mph turn the LEFT adjustment bolt
clockwise a ¼ turn and wait for the belt to adjust itself.
Use the motor cover marking or part line as a reference for alignment.
Repeat if necessary, until the belt remains centered during use.
- If you find the belt is slipping because it is too loose, center it then tension as needed.
- For easier adjustment bolt access, remove the end caps.
