IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
THIS UNIT IS INTENDED FOR HOUSEHOLD USE ONLY
READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING THIS TREADMILL
CAUTION: Before starting any exercise program, it is recommended that you consult your physician.
WARNING: Connect this unit to a properly grounded outlet only.
DANGER: To reduce the risk of electric shock, always unplug the treadmill from the electrical outlet immediately after
using and before cleaning.

WARNING
To reduce the risk of burns, fire, electric shock, or injury to persons:
1. Use 120 volt a.c. household current on a dedicated circuit.

Grounding Instructions
This product must be grounded. If it should malfunction or breakdown, grounding provides a path of least resistance for electric current to reduce
the risk of electric shock. This product is equipped with a cord having an equipment-grounding conductor and a grounding plug. The plug must be
plugged into an appropriate outlet that is properly installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances. See diagram below for
grounding methods.

2.The use of an extension cord with this product is not recommended. If an extension cord is needed, use a short (less than 10 feet) heavy gauge
(14 gauge or better) extension cord with a three prong (grounded) plug and receptacle.
3. Never leave the treadmill unattended when plugged in. Unplug from the outlet when not in use and before removing or replacing parts.
4. Never operate the treadmill if it has a damaged cord or plug, if it is not working properly, if it has been dropped, damaged, or exposed to water.
5. Do not pull the treadmill by the power supply cord or use cord as a handle. Keep cord away from heated surfaces and open flames.
6. Fitness equipment must always be installed and used on a flat surface. Do not use outdoors or near water.
7. Do not insert any objects into any openings.
8. Keep children and pets away from this equipment at all times while exercising.
9. Handicapped individuals should have medical approval and close supervision when using this treadmill.
10.Do not place hands or feet under the treadmill. Always keep hands and legs off of the treadmill when others are using it.
11.Never turn on treadmill while standing on treadbelt. Always return the treadmill to slow speed to provide for safe dismount and low speed
restart.
12.To disconnect, turn all controls to the off position, then remove plug from outlet.
13.Use the treadmill only for it’s intended use as described in this manual. Do not use any attachments that are not recommended by the
manufacturer.
14.Warm up 5 to 10 minutes before each workout and cool down 5 to 10 minutes afterward. This allows your heart rate to gradually increase and
decrease and will help prevent straining muscles.
15. Never hold your breath while exercising. Breathing should remain at a normal rate in conjunction with the level of exercise being performed.
16. Start your program slowly and very gradually increase your speed and distance.
17. Always wear suitable clothing and footwear while exercising. Do not wear loose fitting clothing that could become entangled with the moving
parts of your treadmill.
18. Do not walk or jog barefoot, in stocking feet or loose fitting shoes or slippers.
19. Care must be taken when lifting or moving the equipment, so as not to injure your back. Always use proper lifting techniques.

WARNING: Before beginning any exercise program consult your physician. This is especially important for
individuals over the age of 35 or persons with pre-existing health problems. Read all instructions before using any
fitness equipment. We assume no responsibility for personal injury or property damage sustained by or through the use
of this product.

Monitor Operation
Dot Matrix Center Display (Manual Operation):
Twenty rows of Red “dots” (8 high) indicate each segment of a workout. The dots are only to show an
approximate level (speed/incline) of effort. They do not necessarily indicate a specific value - only an
approximate percent to compare levels of intensity. In Manual Operation the Speed / Incline dot matrix
window will build a profile “picture” as values are changed during a workout.
Next to the Dot Matrix window are three LEDs labeled: Track, Speed and Incline, along with a Display button.
When the Track LED is lit the Dot matrix displays the Track profile, when the Speed LED is lit the Dot matrix
displays the Speed profile and when the Incline LED is lit the Dot Matrix displays the Incline profile. You may
change the Dot Matrix profile view by pressing the Select button. After scrolling through the three profiles, by
pressing the Select button, the Dot matrix will automatically scroll through the three displays showing each
one for four seconds. The LED associated with each profile will blink while that view is displayed. One more
press of the Display button will return you to the Track profile.

height, their calorie burn may be very different than yours. The Calorie display is to
be used as a reference only to monitor improvement from workout to workout.

MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS
CLEANING
WARNING: Always unplug your treadmill prior to cleaning or servicing your unit, in order to avoid
electrical hazard or shock.

Care has been taken to assure that your treadmill has been properly adjusted and lubricated at the factory. It is
not recommended that the user attempt service on the internal components instead seek service from an
authorized service center. However, from time-to-time the outer surfaces may appear dull or dirty, following
the instructions listed below will restore and preserve the original finish.
Cleaning metal surfaces may be accomplished by using a soft cotton or terry cloth rag with a light application
of car wax. Do not use aerosol sprays or pump bottles as they may deposit wax upon the walking or computer
surface.
Under no circumstances are you to use ammonia, oils, silicones or any other compounds on the rubberized
walking surface. The use of such materials may cause serious injury to the body and/or deteriorate the
performance of the walking surface. Only clean the rubberized walking surface with a damp cloth (water
only).
From time-to-time the computer surface may collect dust or fingers prints. The use of harsh chemicals will
destroy the protective coating and cause a static build up that will damage the components. This surface may
be cleaned with specially prepared chemicals found in most computer supply stores especially made for antistatic surfaces. It is strongly recommended that you purchase such a cleaning compound.
At least once a year remove the motor cover and vacuum under the motor cover. Warning: Always unplug
the treadmill from the electrical outlet before removing the motor cover.

MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS
TREADMILL LUBRICATION
Your treadmill should require little maintenance other then periodically applying lubricant. Lubricating
under the treadbelt will ensure superior performance and extend its life expectancy.

HOW TO CHECK TREADBELT FOR PROPER LUBRICATION
Lift one side of the treadbelt and feel the top surface of the treadboard
If the surface is slick to the touch, then no further lubrication is required
If the surface is dry to the touch, apply one packet of lubricant or half of the bottle of lubricant.

HOW TO APPLY LUBRICANT
1. Lift one side of treadbelt.

2. Pour one half of the lubricant bottle under the center of the treadbelt on the top surface of the treadboard
3. Walk on the treadmill at a slow speed for 3 to 5 minutes to evenly distribute lubricant.
NOTE: DO NOT over lubricate treadboard. Any excess lubricant that comes out should be wiped off.
IMPORTANT: ONLY USE HALF THE BOTTLE OF LUBRICANT PER APPLICATION
LUBRICATION SCHEDULE
1. After the first 25 hours of use (2-3 months) apply one half bottle of lubricant
2. Every 50 hours of use (5-8 months) apply one half bottle of lubricant
We recommend that you use:
LUBE-N-Walk™ Treadmill Lubrication Kit, available from Sears parts and service.

WARNING: Always unplug your treadmill prior to cleaning or servicing your unit, in order to avoid
electrical hazard or shock.
RESET SWITCH RESETTING
If your treadmill looses power or will not start, check the reset switch located on the front of the motor cover.
If the white tab of the reset switch is not showing then the reset switch has not been tripped.
If the white tab of the reset switch is showing, the reset switch has tripped.
To reset the reset switch:
Remove the safety clip on console.
Press white tab of the reset switch in until it snaps back into place.
If the reset switch continues to trip - see treadbelt adjustment and treadbelt lubrication

SPEED SENSOR ADJUSTMENT
If the monitor does not display speed or distance the speed sensor and magnet may be misaligned. Follow these step to check and
realign.

Remove the motor cover
Check the spacing and alignment between the magnet on the right side of the front roller and the speed sensor
on the frame. The spacing must be 1/8”.
Loosened screw and slide speed sensor in or out of clamp.
Retighten screw
Replace the motor cover

TRAINING GUIDELINES
Exercise is one of the most important factors in the overall health of an individual. Listed among its benefits
are:
x
x
x

Increased capacity for physical work (strength endurance)
Increased cardiovascular (heart and arteries/veins) and respiratory efficiency
Decreased risk of coronary heart disease
Changes in body metabolism, e.g. losing weight
Delaying the physiological effects of age
Physiological effects, e.g. reduction in stress, increase in self-confidence, etc.

Basic Components of Physical Fitness
There are four all encompassing components of physical fitness and we need to briefly define each and
clarify its role.
Strength is the capacity of a muscle to exert a force against resistance. Strength contributes to power and
speed and is of great importance to a majority of sports people.
Muscular Endurance is the capacity to exert a force repeatedly over a period of time, e.g. it is the capacity
of your legs to carry you 10 Km without stopping.
Flexibility is the range of motion about a joint. Improving flexibility involves the stretching of muscles and
tendons to maintain or increase suppleness, and provides increased resistance to muscle injury or soreness.
Cardio-Respiratory Endurance is the most essential component of physical fitness. It is the efficient
functioning of the heart and lungs.
Aerobic Fitness
The largest amount of oxygen that you can use per minute during exercise is called your maximum oxygen
uptake (MVo2). This is often referred to as your aerobic capacity.
The effort that you can exert over a prolonged period of time is limited by your ability to deliver oxygen to
the working muscles. Regular vigorous exercise produces a training effect that can increase your aerobic
capacity by as much as 20 to 30%. An increased MVO2 indicates an increased ability of the heart to pump
blood, of the lungs to ventilate oxygen and of the muscles to take up oxygen.
Anaerobic Training
This means “without oxygen” and is the output of energy when the oxygen supply is insufficient to meet the
body’s long term energy demands. (For example, 100 meter sprint).
The Training Threshold
This is the minimum level of exercise which is required to produce significant improvements in any
physical fitness parameter.
Progression
As your become fitter, a higher intensity of exercise is required to create an overload and therefore provide
continued improvement
Overload
This is where you exercise at a level above that which can be carried out comfortably. The intensity,
duration and frequency of exercise should be above the training threshold and should be gradually increased
as the body adapts to the increasing demands. As your fitness level improves, the training threshold should
be raised. Working through your program and gradually increasing the overload factor is important.

Specificity
Different forms of exercise produce different results. The type of exercise that is carried out is specific both
to the muscle groups being used and to the energy source involved.
There is little transfer of the effects of exercise, i.e. from strength training to cardiovascular fitness. That is
why it is important to have an exercise program tailored to your specific needs.
Reversibility
If you stop exercising or do not do your program often enough, you will lose the benefits you have gained.
Regular workouts are the key to success.

Warm Up
Every exercise program should start with a warm up where the body is prepared for the effort to come. It
should be gentle and preferably use the muscles to be involved later.
Stretching should be included in both your warm up and cool down, and should be performed after 3-5
minutes of low intensity aerobic activity or callisthenic type exercise.
Warm Down or Cool Down
This involves a gradual decrease in the intensity of the exercise session. Following exercise, a large supply
of blood remains in the working muscles. If it is not returned promptly to the central circulation, pooling of
blood may occur in the muscles.
Heart Rate
As you exercise, the rate at which your heart beat increases. This is often used as a measure of the required
intensity of exercise. You need to exercise hard enough to condition your circulatory system, and increase
your pulse rate, but not enough to strain your heart.
Your initial level of fitness is important in developing an exercise program for you. If you are starting off,
you can get a good training effect with a heart rate of 110-120 beats per minute(BPM). If you are fitter, you
will need a higher threshold of stimulation.
To begin with, you should exercise at a level that elevates your heart rate to about 65 to 70% of your
maximum. If you find this is too easy, you may want to increase it, but it is better to lean on the
conservative side.
As a rule of thumb, the maximum heart rate is 220 minus your age. As you increase in age, your heart, like
other muscles, loses some of its efficiency. Some of its natural loss is won back as fitness improves.
The following table is a guide to those who are “starting fitness”.

Pulse Count
The pulse count(on your wrist or carotid artery in the neck, taken with two index fingers)is done for ten
seconds, taken a few seconds after you stop exercising. This is for two reasons: (a) 10 seconds is long
enough for accuracy, (b) the pulse count is to approximate your BPM rate at the time you are exercising.
Since heart rate slows as you recover, a longer count isn’t as accurate.

The target is not a magic number, but a general guide. If you’re above average fitness, you may work quite
comfortably a little above that suggested for your age group.
The following table is a guide to those who are keeping fit. Here we are working at about 80% of
maximum.

Don’t push yourself too hard to reach the figures on this table. It can be very uncomfortable if you overdo it.
Let it happen naturally as you work through your program. Remember, the target is a guide, not a rule, a
little above or below is just fine.
Two final comments:(1) don’t be concerned with day to day variations in your pulse rate, being under
pressure or not enough sleep can affect it;(2) your pulse rate is a guide, don’t become a slave to it.
Muscle Soreness
For the first week or so, this may be the only indication you have that you are on an exercise program. This,
of course, does depend on your overall fitness level. A confirmation that you are on the correct program is a
very slight soreness in most major muscle groups. This is quite normal and will disappear in a matter of
days.
If you experience major discomfort, you may be on a program that is too advanced or you have increased
your program too rapidly.
If you experience PAIN during or after exercise, your body is telling your something.
Stop exercising and consult your doctor.
What to Wear
Wear clothing that will not restrict your movement in any way while exercising. Clothes should be light
enough to allow the body to cool. Excessive clothing that causes you to perspire more than you normally
would while exercising, gives you no advantage. The extra weight you lose is body fluid and will be
replaced with the next glass of water you drink. It is advisable to wear a pair of gym or running shoes or
“sneakers”.
Breathing during Exercise
Do not hold your breath while exercising. Breathe normally as much as possible. Remember, breathing
involves the intake and distribution of oxygen, which feeds the working muscles.
Rest periods
Once you start your exercise program, you should continue through to the end. Do not break off halfway
through and then restart at the same place later on without going through the warm-up stage again.
The rest period required between strength training exercises may vary from person to person. This will
depend mostly on your level of fitness and the program you have chosen. Rest between exercises by all
means, but do not allow this to exceed two minutes. Most people manage with half minute to one minute
rest periods

STRETCHING
Stretching should be included in both your warm up and cool down, and should be performed after 3-5
minutes of low intensity aerobic activity or callisthenic type exercise. Movements should be performed
slowly and smoothly, with no bouncing or jerking. Move into the stretch until slight tension, not pain, is
felt in the muscle and hold for 20-30 seconds. Breathing should be slow, rhythmical and under control,
making sure never to hold your breath.
