Safety devices and warnings Emergency Stop button (A). Located under the control panel, used to stop the equipment immediately in the event of an emergency. A cord connects the switch to a clamp (B) that must be attached to the user’s clothing. As a result, if the user moves too far from the control panel, the switch pops out and stops the equipment without having to touch the controls. To reset all the equipment’s functions, return the switch to its original position, then press any key.
Safety devices and warnings Circuit breaker (C). Protects the electrical components of the equipment. When power surges, the protection device opens, thus preventing damage to the electronics inside. Main switch (D). Turns the equipment’s power on and off. Marking on the treadmill belt (E). The marking on the two sides of the treadmill belt indicates if the treadmill is moving. Product immobilisation To prevent unsupervised use of the product, remove the power supply cable (F) and keep it in a safe place.
Place of usage To guarantee safe, comfortable and effective use of the unit, it must be installed in a place which complies with certain specific requirements; in particular, before choosing where to install the unit we recommend that you check that the following conditions are available: - a temperature between +10°C and +25°C; - sufficient ventilation to maintain a humidity level between 20% and 70%, when the equipment is in use; - adequate lighting, so that the workout takes place in pleasant and re
Moving the equipment Warnings Move the equipment with great care to avoid it tipping over. After moving the equipment always check that it is level in order to guarantee the correct working. Jog Forma has fixed front wheels. To move the equipment, lift it up slightly, as shown in the illustration, and push it forwards and backwards. Given the weight of the equipment, we recommend that more than one person be involved in lifting it.
Levelling Before use, check that the unit is level. The equipment is levelled by adjusting the rear foot on the side shown in the illustration. - Loosen the locknut (B). - Screw the foot (A) in or out until the frame is in a stable position. - Tighten up the lock nut (B) after adjusting.
Electrical connection Before connecting the equipment to the mains power supply, ensure that the electrical installation complies to binding regulations. Check the mains power supply specifications on the equipment identity label. Warnings The wall socket must be located in a place where the plugging and unplugging can be done easily and safely. When plugging in, the main switch on the equipment must be in the 0 position (i.e. the equipment must be switched off).
Switching on and off To turn the equipment on, switch the main switch to the “I” position (on) . After a quick system check (reset), the equipment is ready for use. To turn the equipment off, switch the main switch to the “0” position (off). The equipment must be switched off only at the end of the exercise, when in standby. If the equipment is not expected to be used for a long time, as well as turning it off you should also pull the plug out of the wall socket.
Maintenance Warnings The safety of the equipment is assured only on the condition that it is carefully inspected every two weeks for any signs of damage and/ or wear. Replace defective and worn components immediately, or alternatively remove the equipment from service. For maintenance actions not described in this manual, call in the Technogym Technical Service.
Maintenance Warnings The routine maintenance, adjustment and lubrication jobs must be performed by the Technogym Technical Support Service. Before starting any job, turn the equipment off by switching the switch to the "0" position and unplug the power cable from the wall socket. Every month: - check the state of wear of the treadmill; - clean the motor compartment and the dust panel. Annually check the state of wear of the treadmill transmission belt.
Maintenance Emergency button Check the condition of the emergency push button each month: - Ensure that the cord and the spring are present and in good condition. - Check the condition of the emergency push button. - With the rotating belt in motion at 5 kph pull the cord with the spring to trigger the emergency push button and ensure that the belt stops. - With the rotating belt in motion at 5 kph press the emergency push button to ensure that the belt stops.
Aligning the treadmill When the equipment is running the treadmill must be centrally aligned in relation to the frame. If it tends to move to the right or left or is not centrally positioned, it needs aligning. The alignment is done with the equipment running. Set the adjustment screw (A), located at the back of the equipment, opposite the control panel support riser, so that the belt is centrally aligned with the back roller.
Easily solved problems The following table lists a series of problems that may arise during normal use of the equipment. If the solutions given don’t solve the problem, or if the problems are different, ask for help from the Technical Support Service.

Storage If a long period of disuse is expected, you are advised to store the equipment in the following way: - in a dry, clean place, covered with a cloth to protect it from dust - at a room temperature between +10°C and +25°C and relative humidity between 20% and 90%. For better storage, use the original packing materials. Disposal It is always good practice to ensure that the unit can never constitute a hazard; therefore do not leave the equipment where children may play with it.
Reading the heart rate The equipment is able to measure heart rate trends, in two different ways: - with a device applied to the handle (hand sensor), that switches on when you grip the handles in the sensor region; - with a chest band with a heart rate transmitter (Polar T31). There must be no more than one transmitter in the reception range: otherwise the receiver may receive different signals at the same time and give incorrect heart readings.
Reading the heart rate Aerobic exercise performed at a heart rate between 60% and 70% mainly burns fat as an energy source. When doing aerobic exercise at a heart rate of 70% to 90% the cardiocirculatory component prevails. For example, if someone aged 30 wants to burn off fat, the heart rate during exercise should be kept to between 112 (60%) and 131 (70%); if he or she wants to improve cardio-respiratory capacity, the heart rate should be kept to between 131 (70%) and 168 (90%).
Using Jog Forma Warnings Jog Forma is to be used solely for its intended purpose, i.e. to simulate walking and running. Any other use is considered improper. It is the user's responsibility to ensure that the product being used does not interfere with any other mobile goods during use. Step on the treadmill from the rear, looking forward, and put your feet on the footrests on either side. In this rest position hold on to the side grip with one hand, using the other hand to operate the control panel.
Using Jog Forma Do not lean too far forward or back. The correct position is with your head up, shoulders aligned with your hips, arms loose with elbows at 90°, looking straight ahead as if at a point 5 - 6 metres away. The stepping pace must be regular, with legs and feet parallel to the treadmill centre line. To rest or get off the equipment without stopping the treadmill or in any case without touching the controls, you just have to grip the handgrips and move your feet onto the side footrests.
