Assembly

Step 1

• Take the treadmill out of the box and place it on a level surface.
• Then release the uprights by turning the knobs on both sides (left and right) in the direction shown by the arrows (see Fig. 1), and raise the uprights to the position shown in Fig. 2.

Step 2

Use the knobs on both sides to lock the uprights in the direction of the arrow, as shown in Fig. 3.

Adjusting the locking knob tightness

The knob on this treadmill has been factory-set to the optimal tightness. However, because hand strength varies from person to person, you can adjust the knob tightness yourself depending on how much play the upright has, to make it more stable. The specific steps are shown in Fig. 4:

Fit one end of the open-end wrench from the accessory kit onto the hex nut and turn it clockwise to tighten or counterclockwise to loosen.

Step 3

Insert the holder into the matching slot on the back of the electronic unit, as shown in the figure.

Step 4

Place the safety key in the position shown in the figure and press the "Start" button on the control panel to turn on the treadmill.

Note: The treadmill can only run with the safety key in place — it must be placed on the yellow sticker in the center of the lower part of the console.

Note: The safety key is red. Inside the PE bag with the screws and installation tools there is a device with a magnet and a red cord — this is the key. Please place the magnetic end on the yellow sticker on the console.

Please note: Before connecting to the mains, make sure the installation has been carried out in accordance with the requirements above and that nothing has been missed.

Adjusting the Treadmill's Stability on the Floor

If there is a gap between the treadmill and the floor, you can adjust the rear support feet so that the treadmill touches the floor both at the front and at the rear.

Running Platform Mode

If you want to use the "running platform" mode, first turn off the power and remove the safety key.

It is recommended to pull the bracket out firmly, as shown in Fig. 1.

Then release the uprights by turning the locks on both sides in the direction of the arrows (Fig. 2).

Lower the uprights and lock them by turning the locks in the direction of the arrows again (Fig. 3).

Then turn on the power. The indicator on the motor unit will light up, meaning that the "flat platform" mode is activated, and you can control the treadmill with the remote control.

Two-Level Incline Adjustment of the Running Platform

The incline of the running platform can be adjusted manually by turning the front support feet of the treadmill (the left and right feet are adjusted equally). After adjusting the front feet, you can also adjust the rear support feet according to how level the floor is. Make sure all feet touch the floor — otherwise there may be extraneous noise during your workout and the risk of injury increases.

Setup and Operation

Using the Treadmill

• Plug the power cord into the outlet and turn on the power with the toggle switch (the red switch on the front of the motor cover).

• The indicator will light up, a beep will sound and the display will light up.

Safety Key

• The treadmill runs only when the safety key is fully attached to the yellow sticker on the console.
• Clip the safety key to your clothing. In an emergency, pull out the key to stop the motor immediately.
• To continue, put the safety key back in place.
• The treadmill can be stopped at any time by removing the key.

Display Functions

• Time: when the time indicator is lit, the current workout time is displayed.

Using the Remote Control

This treadmill has been paired one-to-one with its remote at the factory, so you can start using it right after delivery. If this is not possible, the remote must be paired again. After successful pairing, the device can be connected again.

Pairing method: after turning on the power, hold the "Start/Pause" button on the remote control for about 7 seconds to perform one-to-one pairing (several beeps in a row indicate successful pairing; if there is no beep, pairing has failed). After successful pairing, the remote control can operate the treadmill and no further pairing is needed.

The remote has the following buttons: "Speed +", "Mode", "Speed -", "Start/Pause", "Stop".

Remote Control Functions

(Walking mode: upright without the armrest function, i.e. used when the upright is folded down)

Error Codes and Troubleshooting

Care, Storage and Maintenance

Maintenance

Regular cleaning

Turn off the power before cleaning and use a minimal amount of water and soapy solution to prevent moisture from getting onto electrical parts.

Clean the running belt and other parts of the treadmill regularly. After each workout, wipe down the entire treadmill, including the console, with a mild soapy solution, then dry it thoroughly with a dry cloth. Simple care will keep the equipment looking great for many years. Do not use abrasive or rough brushes and cloths, as they may damage the surface of the equipment. Do not let cleaning agents or liquids get onto the surface of the equipment. Do not use harsh chemicals or solvents to clean the treadmill.

Lubricating the running belt

Use only lubricants recommended by the manufacturer, such as silicone treadmill lubricant. Other types and compositions of lubricants may damage the equipment.

Lubrication frequency

• Light use (less than 3 hours per week): lubricate once every 10 months.
• Heavy use (more than 7 hours per week): lubricate every 2–5 months.

Lubrication procedure

Lift the running belt, locate the caps and spread the lubricant evenly along the entire length of the belt.

After applying the lubricant, run the treadmill at 4–5 km/h and walk on it for a few minutes so that the lubricant spreads evenly over the deck.

Avoid over-lubrication

Do not apply too much lubricant, as this can make the belt too slippery and dangerous. Remove excess lubricant with a clean towel.

Running Belt Adjustment

Check and adjust the tension and alignment of the running belt to prevent wear and ensure safe operation.

Checking belt alignment

Make sure the treadmill is placed on a level surface. Run the belt at 3–8 km/h and watch how it moves. If the belt drifts to the left or right, use the adjustment bolts to correct its position.

Belt drifting to the left

• Turn the left adjustment bolt 1/2 turn clockwise.
• Then turn the right adjustment bolt 1/2 turn counterclockwise.
• Check the belt position after 1–2 minutes. If the belt has not returned to the center, repeat the procedure.

Belt drifting to the right

• Turn the right adjustment bolt 1/2 turn clockwise.
• Then turn the left adjustment bolt 1/2 turn counterclockwise.
• Check the belt position after 1–2 minutes. Repeat the adjustment if necessary.

Adjusting belt tension

• If the belt is too loose, it may slip during operation. To check the tension, run the treadmill at 1 km/h and press lightly on the belt with your foot.
• If the belt stops while the motor and rollers keep running, the tension is too loose and must be tightened.
• Turn the adjustment bolts at both ends of the belt 1/2 turn clockwise. Make sure you turn both bolts the same number of times for even tension.
• Check the tension again and make sure the belt does not slip but is not overtightened.

Avoid overtightening

• Do not overtighten the running belt, as this puts excessive pressure on the front and rear roller bearings, causing squeaking and accelerated wear.
• With correct tension, you can slightly lift the edges of the belt by 50–70 mm on both sides.

Storing the Treadmill

Recommended storage and operating conditions

• Temperature: +10…+35 °C.
• Humidity: 50–75%.
• Acclimatization: if the treadmill has been stored at low temperature or high humidity (there are signs of condensation), keep it under normal conditions for at least 2–4 hours before use. Only then may you start using the treadmill.

Warm-up and Cool-down Exercises

A successful workout program consists of three parts: warm-up, aerobic exercise and cool-down.

The warm-up is the most important part of a workout and should be done before every session. It helps warm up the body, stretch the muscles and prepare the body for more intense exercise. Repeating the warm-up exercises after your workout helps relieve muscle tension and soreness.

We recommend doing suitable warm-up and cool-down exercises as shown below:

Head rolls

First tilt your head toward your right shoulder, stretch your neck and rotate your head once clockwise and once counterclockwise; then tilt your head toward your left shoulder and make one counterclockwise rotation. Repeat.

Shoulder lifts

Raise your left shoulder and make 5 backward rotations; then raise your right shoulder and make 5 backward rotations, alternating sides.

Side stretch

Raise your arms above your head, then grasp your right wrist with your left hand and reach upward until you feel your right arm fully stretched. Hold for 5 seconds before switching to the other arm.

Quadriceps stretch

Holding onto a wall with your right hand for balance, pull your left foot back with your left hand, bringing the heel as close to your buttock as possible. Hold for 15 seconds, then repeat with the other leg.

Inner thigh stretch

Sit on the floor, bring the soles of your feet together, hold them with both hands and pull them as close to your body as possible. Slowly press down on your heels and hold this position for 15 seconds.

Toe touch

Slowly bend forward, relax your back and shoulders and reach for your toes. Bend as low as you can and hold the position for up to 15 seconds.

Hamstring stretch

Sit down, straighten your right leg and bend your left leg. Hold your left ankle with your left hand and pull it inward so that your left foot is as close to your body as possible, with the sole against the inner side of your right thigh. Then lean your body forward and reach both hands toward your toes — the deeper the stretch, the better. Hold this position for 15 seconds, then switch legs.

Calf stretch

Lean against a wall with both hands, tilt your body at a 45-degree angle to the floor and alternately move your left and right legs back, as if walking.
