WHAT DOES THIS WARRANTY COVER?
This warranty covers your fitness product against defect in material and workmanship when used for the
purpose intended, under normal conditions provided it receives proper care. The warranty is extended only
to the original owner and is not transferable.
• 30 YEARS ON FRAME
• 30 YEARS ON DRIVE MOTOR
• 2 YEARS ON ALL OTHER PARTS
• 1 YEAR ON LABOR
This product is designed for home use. This warranty does not cover fitness products which are
(1) used in a commercial environment; or (2) subject to misuse, neglect, accident, or unauthorized repairs and
alterations; or (3) running belt and drive belt adjustments; and (4) normal maintenance functions. Some states
do not allow the exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential damages, so the above limitation or
exclusion may not apply to you.
All of the parts for this treadmill can be ordered from your
local dealer. Dealers also have trained service personnel
who can assist you with any service questions you may have.
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.
2. Position the treadmill on a clear, level surface. Do not place the treadmill on thick carpet as it may interfere with
proper ventilation. Also, do not place the treadmill near water or outdoors. Treadmill mats can usually be
purchased from your treadmill dealer. If the power cord is damaged, it must be replaced by a power cord from
DF Hebb Industries, Inc. Please contact your dealer or DF Hebb Industries, Inc.
4. Never start the treadmill while you are standing on the walking belt. After turning the power on and
adjusting the speed control, there may be a pause before the walking belt begins to move. Always stand on the
foot rails on the sides of the frame until the belt is moving.
5. Wear appropriate clothing when exercising on the treadmill. Do not wear long, loose fitting clothing that could
become caught in the treadmill. Always wear
running or aerobic shoes with rubber soles.

8. Always hold the handrails when initially
walking or running on the treadmill, until you are comfortable with the use of the treadmill.
9. Always attach the safety pull pin rope to your clothing when using the treadmill. If the treadmill should
suddenly increase in speed due to an electronics failure or the speed being inadvertently increased, the
treadmill will come to a sudden stop when the pull pin is disengaged from the console.
10. When the treadmill is not being used, the power cord should be unplugged and the safety pull pin removed.

Going Forward
Walk a mile at a steady pace, and record your time. It will probably take between 15 and 25 minutes. At 3 MPH, a mile
will take about 20 minutes. After you can do this a few times fairly easily, you can gradually increase your speed and
grade so you are getting a good workout that lasts 30 minutes. To begin a walking program, keep in mind that you are
in no big hurry. This is for lifetime health, not overnight magic.
How Often?
• The goal- three to five times a week, for 15 to 60 minutes.
• Schedule workouts in advance; workout even when you don’t want to.
• Control intensity of workout by speed and/or by incline.
• Start off with no elevation at first. As you want to increase workout intensity, begin to elevate the machine; it
is very effective.
Suggested Workouts
The Quickie-
Stretching
At any level of walking, a stretching session is a good idea. Warm muscles respond better to stretches than cold ones, so
walk for five or ten minutes until you’re warm. Then stop for the stretches listed below- fives times, 10 or more seconds
each, for each leg. Repeat at the end of the walk.
• Achilles Tendon and Calf- With both hands against a wall, place one foot behind you. Keeping the rear leg
straight and its heel on the ground, lean in toward the wall. Repeat for the other leg.
• Quadriceps- Put your left hand on a wall or table for balance. Then reach your right hand behind your back and
grasp your right ankle, pulling it gently towards your buttocks until you feel tension along the front of your thigh.
•Hamstring- Stand on one leg and prop the other leg parallel to the ground on a table or cabinet top. Slide both
hands toward the propped-up ankle as far as they’ll go. Repeat on other side.
• Walking Websites-
• The Walking Site- [Link]
This site has some useful information for beginning walkers. The "Beginner" section has a detailed walking
plan to get you started.
• Running Websites-
• Runner’s World- [Link]
This website has many useful links that give information such as "Beginning," "Training," and "Nutrition."
This site has information for runners of all levels- from beginners to experts.
• American Running Association- [Link]
The above websites are just the beginning of the vast amount of fitness related information you can find on the internet.
If you don’t have access to the internet, your local library will have fitness books. In addition, hiring a personal trainer
can be beneficial because they are able to assemble a custom walking or running workout program for you.
Good luck in achieving your fitness goals! The best time to start is NOW!
CHEST STRAP
Using your chest strap, you can monitor your heart rate at any time during your workout or you can use a pre-pro-
grammed heart rate program.
• The chest strap will send your heart rate to the treadmill’s receiver and your pulse will be displayed within a
matter of several seconds.
• If your treadmill is equipped with heart rate programs, you will find an explanation of the heart rate programs
on the following pages in this user’s manual.

As walking belts tend to stretch slightly with use, the walking belt may occasionally need to be tightened. If
the walking belt is too loose, you may find the belt stops while running or walking, while the motor contin-
ues to run. DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN THE BELT. This will cause reduced motor performance and roller
damage.
When properly tensioned, you should be able to lift the side of the belt about
2-3 inches (5-7.5 centimeters). A quick test for belt tension: you should be
able to fit three fingers under the edge of the belt.
To tighten belt:
Use the hex key provided with the treadmill (or a 3/16 inch hex wrench).
Place the hex key in the hole in left end cap and into the socket of the
adjustment screw. Turn key one full turn clockwise. Then place hex key in
hole in right end cap and turn key one full turn clockwise. Check the ten-
sion of the belt. Continue back and forth until belt is at the correct tension.
Make sure to adjust both sides equally to ensure correct belt alignment.
If belt has moved to the right: If the belt has moved to the left:
Turn the right adjustment screw 1/2 turn clock- Turn the right adjustment screw 1/2 turn counter-
wise, then turn the left adjustment screw 1/2 turn clockwise, then turn the left adjustment screw 1/2
counterclockwise. turn clockwise.
If belt does not move, repeat until belt is centered. If belt does not move, repeat until belt is centered.
CLEANING
General cleaning of the treadmill will prolong the life of the treadmill and improve performance.
Keep the unit clean by dusting regularly. Be sure to dust the exposed part of the deck on either side of the
walking belt and also the side rails.
For best performance, we recommend your treadmill be placed on a treadmill mat. Along with reducing
noise, a treadmill mat will help to keep dust debris away from your treadmill’s critical components.
Clean the top of the belt with a wet, soapy cloth. Be careful to keep liquid away from inside the motorized
treadmill frame or underneath the belt.
This treadmill is equipped with a pre-lubricated, low maintenance deck and belt system. The belt/deck fric-
tion may affect the function and life of your treadmill and requires periodic lubrication. We also recommend
a periodic inspection of the deck surface under the walking belt. If the deck appears worn, contact our
service department at 800-499-4322, fax (903) 877-3099, or e-mail service@[Link]
