True Fitness 450 SERIES - Manual (Page 5)

SETTING UP YOUR
TREADMILL
Place your treadmill on a clean, level surface.
Make sure the electrical cord easily reaches a
grounded three-pronged outlet and has
enough slack to allow the deck to incline
unhindered by the cord. Do not allow the
treadmill assembly to rest on the cord.
Although your treadmill is designed to
operate on most carpeted surfaces, some
deeply padded or heavy shag carpets can
cause damage to the unit. To prevent
damage to your treadmill or carpet, have
someone stand on the deck and make sure
the treadmill belt doesn’t touch the carpet at
any point.
Your TRUE treadmill is designed for indoor
use only. Always keep the control panel out of
direct sunlight.

Your treadmill is made up of two main sections: the base and
the pedestal.
The base of the treadmill consists of a metal frame, a
shock-absorbing deck system and a powerful 2.5
continuous-duty horsepower DC motor. The motor powers a
pulley system which moves the running belt over the deck.
(See figure 1, page 1-4)
The pedestal mounts on the top of the frame. It places the
displays, information readout and touch keys within easy sight
and reach.
