Your SportsArt treadmill was designed and built for optimum safety. However, certain precautions apply whenever you use your treadmill. Please read the entire manual before assembly and operation. Also, please note the following safety precautions:

IMPORTANT SAFETY PRECAUTIONS ˙

Please read the instruction carefully and install the treadmill as instructed.

˙

Assemble and operate the treadmill on a solid, level surface. DO NOT use outdoors or near water.

˙

Never allow children on or near the treadmill at all times.

˙

Check the treadmill before every use. Make sure all parts are assembled, and all fasteners are tightened. DO NOT use the treadmill if the unit is disassembled in any way.

˙

Keep your hands away from moving parts.

˙

Wear proper workout clothing: DO NOT wear loose clothing. DO NOT wear shoes with leather soles or high heels. Tie all long hair back.

˙

Be careful when mounting and dismounting the unit.

˙

The walk belt will not stop immediately if any object becomes caught in the belts or rollers.

˙

DO NOT use any accessories that aren't specifically recommended by the manufacturer. These might cause injuries or cause the unit to fail.

˙

Unplug from outlet before servicing or removal of any parts.

˙

Close supervision is necessary when this treadmill is used by, on, or near children, invalids, or disabled persons.

˙

Use this treadmill only for its intended use as described in this manual.

˙

Never operate this treadmill if it has been damaged in any way. If it is not working properly, been dropped or damaged, contact your dealer.

DO NOT carry this treadmill by power cord or use cord as a handle.

˙

Keep the power cord away from heated surfaces.

2

˙

Keep all air ventilation areas free of blockage.

˙

Never drop or insert any object into any opening.

˙

DO NOT operate where aerosol (spray) products are being used or where oxygen is being administered.

˙ The weight limit for this treadmill is 160 KGS (350 LBS). ˙ Product performance depends on adequate power supply. Each commercial treadmill requires one 20Amp (for 110v area) or one 10Amp (for 220v area) dedicated circuit for proper operation.

CAUTION If you feel any pain or abnormal, STOP YOUR WORKOUT and consult your physician immediately. Work within your recommended exercise level. DO NOT work to exhaustion. Before beginning any exercise program, you should consult with your doctor. It is recommended that you undergo a complete physical examination. DO NOT stand on the belt when starting. Straddle the belt with your feet on the right and left landing strips. Always use the safety cord when operating the treadmill.

DANGER - To reduce the risk of electric shock, always unplug this treadmill from the electrical outlet immediately after using and before cleaning. Improper connection of the equipment-grounding connector can result in a risk of electric shock. Check with a qualified electrical or service person if you are in doubt as to whether the treadmill is properly grounded. DO NOT modify the plug provided with T650 treadmill, if it doesn't fit the outlet; get the proper outlet installed by a qualified technician.

GUIDELINES FOR EXERCISE How hard should I exercise?

HE

Studies show that to achieve the benefits of aerobic exercise, it is necessary to work within your training zone. Your training zone depends on your age and level of fitness. The above chart indicates the recommended Heart Rate training zones (darkened area of the chart). These figuress are calculated by taking 220 minus your age, and calculating 80% for your maximum and 65% for the minimum heart rate for aerobic exercise. CAUTION: Heart Rate training zones are approximations. Always check with your physicians to learn what appropriate heart rate level is best for your fitness level. How long should I exercise? The duration of your exercise session depends on your fitness level. In general, it is recommended that you maintain your heart rate in the training zone for at least 15 to 20 minutes to realize an aerobic benefit. Beginners should always start slowly and bring their workout sessions up to 20 minutes or more. As your fitness level increases, you will be able to maintain your heart rate in the training zone for longer periods: Usually between 20 and 30 minutes. When first starting your workout, use the first several minutes to warm up, then slowly increase your workload to bring your heart rate into your specific training zone. At the end of your workout, gradually decease your workload, then exercise lightly as a "cool down". How often should I exercise? Research indicates to achieve the greatest benefits, should be performed 3-5 times a week. It is important to allow sufficient time, at least 24 hours, for your body to recover after exercise.

ADJUSTING THE WALK BELT For optimum performance, the walk belt must track in the center of the deck. Failure to align the belt properly could cause the belt to tear or fray, which is not covered under the warranty. Caution: To avoid injury, special care must be taken when adjusting the walk belt. Be careful to keep your fingers, clothes and other objects clear of the belt and rollers. The treadmill will not stop immediately if objects become caught in the belt or rollers. Do not allow anyone to stand on the walk belt during this procedure. Please follow the belt adjustment procedure listed below: 1.

Determine belt position in relation to the belt alignment gauge on the walk deck. The red mark on the gauge indicates misalignment. The belt should center in the middle of the green area.

2.

If the belt is in the red mark on either side of the deck, follow the steps below to align the walk belt.

3. Turn off the unit. 4. If the belt is too far left, use the hex Allen wrench to turn the left adjustment bolt at the rear of the treadmill clockwise 1/4 turn. Then turn the right adjustment bolt counterclockwise 1/4 turn. Turn on the treadmill. Press the SPEED button to increase the speed until the speed reaches 2.0 MPH/3.2KPH on the display. Inspect belt alignment. 5. If the belt has not returned to the green zone, repeat with another 1/4 turn on both sides until the belt has returned to the middle of the green area. Do not turn the walk belt adjustment bolt more than 1/4 turn at a time. If the belt is on the edge of the green color, turn the adjustment bolt less than 1/4 turn at a time to center the belt. 6. If the belt is too far right, turn the right adjustment bolt clockwise 1/4 turn, then turn the left adjustment bolt counterclockwise 1/4 turn. Turn on the treadmill. Press the SPEED button to increase the speed until the speed reaches 2.0 MPH/3.2KPH on the display. Inspect belt alignment. 7. If the belt has not returned to the green zone, repeat with another 1/4 turn on both sides until the belt has returned to the middle of the green area. Do not turn the walk belt adjustment bolt more than 1/4 turn at a time. If the belt is on the edge of the green color, turn the adjustment bolt less than 1/4 turn at a time to center the belt.
