TURNING THE UNIT ON AND OFF
Use the ON/OFF (I/O) power switch, located on the front panel, to turn the unit
ON and OFF.
To complete the installation of the treadmill, continue with
Checking the Alignment
of the Running Belt.
CHECKING THE ALIGNMENT OF THE RUNNING BELT
The belt is aligned at the factory before shipment. However, during shipment or by
using the treadmill on an uneven surface, the belt might move off center. Proper
belt alignment is important because it allows the belt to remain centered and
assures smooth operation.
Follow these steps to check the alignment:
1.
The treadmill has adjustable rear feet. Check to make sure that the running
surface is level. Refer to step 14, Diagram 16.
2.
Locate the I/O switch at the front of the treadmill and turn the unit ON.
3.
Stand beside the treadmill and press QuickStart. The running belt starts
automatically after the message, “
Belt Starting 3, 2, 1,...” appears.
4.
Continue standing next to the treadmill and hold down the Speed
▲ key until
the display shows a speed of 3 miles per hour (5 kph).
5.
Walk around to the rear of the unit and observe the belt for a few minutes as
it moves.
