Before You Start
!
Consult a physician before you start an exercise program. Stop exercising if you feel pain or tightness in your
chest, become short of breath, or feel faint. Contact your doctor before you use the machine again. Use the
values calculated or measured by the machine’s computer for reference purposes only.
1. Place the TreadClimber
®
tness machine in your workout area.
!
Place the machine on a clean, hard, level surface, free from unwanted material or other objects that may
hamper your ability to move freely. A rubber mat can be used below the machine to prevent the release of
static electricity and protect your fl ooring.
The machine can be moved by one or more persons. Make sure that your own physical strength is capable of
safely moving the machine.
2. Adjust the intensity settings on the Hydraulic Cylinders.
Note: Initially, the settings on each cylinder should match. Begin with each cylinder set to the central, white
dot on the dial.
3. Connect the power cord to the machine and into a grounded AC Wall Outlet.
Note: The TreadClimber
®
fitness machine is designed to plug directly into a properly wired and grounded three
prong 120V outlet. If an extension cord must be used, be sure it is a heavy duty model, rated for 15A.
!
Put the power cord alongside the machine, out of your way when you dismount the machine. Avoid stepping on
the power cord and plug.
4. Examine below the Treadles for any objects. Be sure it is clear below the machine.
5. Switch on the power. Power is now supplied to the machine.
6. Straddle the belts and stand on the Side Foot Support Platforms. Put the Safety Key into the Safety Keyhole and clip
the Safety Key cord to your clothing.
The Safety Key must be correctly put into the Safety Keyhole for the Belt Motor to engage.
Always attach the Safety Key Clip to your clothing during workouts.
If there is an emergency, pull out the Safety Key to shut off the power to the Belt Motor. This will quickly stop the
belts (brace yourself- this is an abrupt stop).
