BEFORE USING THIS PRODUCT

WARM UP
A successful exercise program consists of a warm-up, aerobic exercise, and a cool-down. Warming up is an important part of your workout, and should begin every session. It prepares your body for more strenuous exercise by heating up and stretching out your muscles, increasing your circulation and pulse rate, and delivering more oxygen to your muscles.
At the end of your workout, repeat these exercises to reduce sore muscle problems. We suggest the following warmup and cool-down exercises:

INNER THIGH STRETCH
Sit with the soles of your feet together with your knees pointing outward. Pull your feet as close into your groin as possible. Gently push your knees towards the floor. Hold for 15 counts.| HAMSTRING STRETCH
Sit with your right leg extended. Rest the sole of your left foot against your right inner thigh. Stretch toward your toe as far as possible. Hold for 15 counts. Relax and then repeat with left leg extended.
---|---
|
HEAD ROLL
Rotate your head to the right for one count, feeling the stretch up the left side of your neck. Next, rotate your head back for one count, stretching your chin to the ceiling and letting your mouth open. Rotate your head to the left for one count, and finally, drop your head to your chest for one count.| SHOULDER LIFT
Lift your right shoulder up toward your ear for one count. Then lift your left shoulder up for one count as
you lower your right shoulder. Repeat this action for a few minutes.
|
CALF-ACHILLES STRETCH
Lean against a wall with your left leg in front of the right and your arms forward. Keep your right leg straight and the left foot on the floor; then bend the left leg and lean forward by moving your hips toward the wall. Hold, then repeat on the other side for 15 counts.| SIDE STRECH
Open your arms to the side and continue lifting them until they are over your head. Reach your right arm as far upward toward the ceiling as you can for one count. Feel the stretch up your right side. Repeat this action with your left arm.

Slowly bend forward from your waist, letting your back and shoulders relax as you stretch toward your toes. Reach down as far as you can and hold for 15 counts.|

USE THE PRODUCT

SAFETY TETHER AND EMERGENCY STOP
The product is equipped with an “emergency stop system” (A). This safety system must be connected to the console for it to work. It is designed to be attached to your clothing so that if you leave or fall off the equipment it will automatically stop, helping to prevent injury.
Before beginning a training session, make sure that the safety key is properly placed on the console and that the clip is securely fastened to your clothing. When you finish each workout and stop the machine, remove the safety key.

NOTE: Make sure the tape is plugged in at 220 volts and has a grounding plug.

CONSOLE AND FUNCTIONS

Programs

TRAINING
If you are a beginner, start by training for several days at a gentle pace; don’t push yourself and rest if necessary.
Gradually increase the frequency and duration of sessions. Ensure the room in which you are exercising is well ventilated.
STRETCHING/WARMING UP: GENTLE E ORT FOR A MINIMUM OF 10 MINUTES
To maintain tness or for rehabilitation, train every day for at least 10 minutes. This type of exercise provides a good, gentle work-out for muscles and joints and can be used as a warm-up activity before more intense physical exercise.
To develop muscle tone in the legs, choose a steeper incline and increase the duration of the exercise.
AEROBIC EXERCISE FOR WEIGHT LOSS: MODERATE E ORT FOR 35 TO 60 MINUTES
This type of training is an e ective way of burning calories. There is no point in pushing yourself unduly; for the best results the most important thing is frequency of exercise (at least 3 times a week) and the duration of the session (35 to 60 minutes). Exercise at average intensity (moderate e ort so you are not out of breath). In order to lose weight, as well as taking regular physical exercise, it’s essential to follow a balanced diet.
AEROBIC TRAINING FOR ENDURANCE: SUSTAINED E ORT FOR 20 TO 40 MINUTES
This type of exercise helps strengthen the heart muscle and improves your respiratory health. Exercise at least 3 times a week at a steady pace (rapid breathing). As your training progresses, you will be able to maintain this e ort for longer, and at an improved pace. Training at a faster pace (anaerobic and in the red zone) is reserved for athletes and requires special preparation.
COOL DOWN
After each training session, walk slowly for a few minutes to bring your body gradually to rest. This cool down phase helps your cardiovascular and respiratory systems, blood circulation and muscles return to normal. It also helps to eliminate side e ects such as the accumulation of lactic acid which is one of the major causes of muscle pain (cramps and sti ness).
STRETCHING
Stretching after exercise reduces muscle sti ness caused by lactic acid accumulation and stimulates blood circulation.

MAINTENANCE

ATTENTION: For procedures that you are not comfortable with or have the tools or experience for, have the unit serviced by a service centre or qualified technician.

• To prevent electrical shock, switch OFF and unplug the equipment before cleaning or performing any maintenance tasks.
• Before each use, check the running belt for wear.

CLEANING
The equipment can be cleaned with a soft cloth and mild detergent. Do not use abrasives, solvents or harsh chemicals.
Be careful not to get excessive moisture on the display panel as this may damage it and create an electrical hazard.
After each use, wipe the unit of any sweat, dirt or liquids. Pay extra attention to the edges of the belt, where it meets the running boards on each side of the running belt – keeping this area clean will help prolong the life of the unit and maintain its performance. Keep the equipment, especially the display console, out of direct sunlight to prevent damage to the screen.

MAINTENANCE

BELT LUBRICATION
Treadmill lubrication helps maintain performance and prolongs equipment life.
The treadmill has been lubricated with silicone oil before leaving the factory. You only have to spread oil again when you notice that the resistance has increased and the treadmill starts rubbing against the running platform.

To apply lubricant:

1. Raise the edge of the treadmill so that the running surface is exposed.
2. Place several drops of lubricant along the center of the running surface.
3. Wait a few minutes before using the tape for the silicone oil to set.
4. Run on the treadmill at low speed for 3 to 5 minutes to evenly distribute the lubricant.

NOTE: Do not over-lubricate. Clean excess lubricant from treadmill. – Only use silicone oil.

TAPE ALIGNMENT AND TENSION ADJUSTMENT
The treadmill is preset to the running platform at the factory, but after prolonged use it may become loose and may require re-tensioning. To adjust the treadmill, turn on the main power switch on the equipment and let the treadmill run at a speed of 3 km/h. Use the Allen key provided to turn the rear roller adjustment bolts to center the belt.
If the treadmill is moving to the left, turn the left adjustment screw to the right, the treadmill should start to correct (1).
If the treadmill is moving to the right, turn the right adjusting screw to the left and the treadmill should begin to correct (2). Keep the treadmill running until the running surface is well centered.

If the running surface slips during exercise, with the Allen key provided, turn the left and right rear roller adjusting screws clockwise or counterclockwise (3 and 4), then turn the main power switch back on and operate the equipment.
Run over the treadmill to determine if the treadmill is still slipping. Repeat this procedure until the treadmill no longer slips.
