Installation Instructions

During installation, first tighten all screws only lightly. After the frame is fully assembled, tighten them fully.

Step 1

Carefully take the treadmill out of the box and place it level on the floor.

Note: this operation requires at least two people. Be careful.

Step 2

Lift the upright and the electronic display, turning them counterclockwise in the direction shown in the diagram. The upright locks automatically in the preliminary position. Tighten the upright by turning the locking knob clockwise.

Step 3

Using the No. 6 hex socket wrench, fasten the two M8×25 hex socket screws and secure the console bracket to the upright.

Note: hold the upright tubes carefully with your hands on both sides. When tightening the screws, make sure the console bracket does not pinch the wires of the right upright. As shown in the diagram on the left.

Step 4

Take the two decorative side covers of the frame base out of the box. For each cover, first insert one end of its upper opening into the arc of the upright tube, then snap the clips under the decorative cover into the two holes on the frame base. Make sure they are fully locked.

Note: the decorative covers of the frame base are divided into left and right sides. As shown in the diagram below:

Step 5

Place the safety key in the position shown in the diagram below. Plug the power cord into the outlet, then press the power switch on the front of the motor cover. The power switch indicator will light up. After that the electronic display will light up — press the Start button, and the treadmill is ready for use.

Note: first make sure that the whole installation was done according to the requirements above. Then tighten all screws evenly. Power can be connected only after checking and confirming that no step was skipped.

Operating Instructions

Using the Treadmill

Connect the power and turn on the red switch (1). It will light up, then a beep will sound and the screen will turn on.

Folding the treadmill

Folding the treadmill saves space. Before folding, first switch off the power of the treadmill and unplug it from the outlet. Lift the running belt by hand until it locks.

Unfolding the treadmill

Press the gas spring with your foot and slightly pull the running platform by hand, then release it — the running platform will lower slowly to the floor by itself. See the picture on the left.

Folding the upright

Step 1

Remove the left and right protective covers. Using the No. 6 hex socket wrench, unscrew the 2 M8×25 hex socket screws from the reinforced upright.

Pull the protective covers upward and outward on both sides.

Step 2

First loosen the left and right upright locking knobs. Then pull the left upright locking knob outward. Use the multi-purpose wrench 13–17, 3 mm thick, placing it between the upright and the knob. Holding the left upright with your right hand, pull the right locking knob outward with your left hand and slowly fold the upright toward the running platform.

To reassemble, follow the installation instructions on the left.

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 the entire treadmill, including the console, with a mild soap solution, then wipe it thoroughly with a dry cloth. Simple care will keep the equipment looking excellent for many years. Do not use abrasive or rough brushes and cloths, as this may damage the surface of the equipment. Do not let cleaning agents or liquids get on the surface of the equipment. Do not use aggressive 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.
• Frequent use (more than 7 hours per week): lubricate every 2-5 months.

Lubrication procedure

Lift the belt and spread the lubricant evenly along the entire length of the belt. After applying the lubricant, switch on the treadmill at 4–5 km/h and walk on it for a few minutes so that the lubricant is spread 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. If necessary, repeat the adjustment.

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.
• Correct tension means 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 to +35°C.
• Humidity: 50-75%.

Acclimatization: If the treadmill has been stored at a low temperature or in high humidity (there are signs of condensation), it must be left in normal conditions for at least 2–4 hours before use. Only then can 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.

Warming up is the most important part of a workout and must be done before every session. Warming up helps to warm the body, stretch the muscles and prepare the body for more intense loads. Repeating the warm-up exercises after a workout helps to relieve muscle tension and ease pain. It is recommended to do suitable warm-up and cool-down exercises, as shown below:

Head rolls

First pull your head toward your right shoulder, stretch your neck and turn your head once clockwise and once counterclockwise; pull your head toward your left shoulder and make one turn counterclockwise. 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

Sitting on the floor, put the soles of your feet together, clasp them with both hands and pull them in as close to your body as possible. Slowly press down on both 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, bend your left leg, grab your left ankle with your left hand and push it inward so that your left foot is as close to your torso as possible and the sole of the foot is against the inside of your right thigh. Then press forward with your body and reach both arms forward to touch your toes; the more pressure, the better. Hold this position for 15 seconds and switch to the left leg.

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.
