Care and maintenance
Belt tension
The belt must be tensioned if it slips during usage. Your treadmill is equipped with tension bolts that can be reached from the back of the treadmill. Before you tension the belt, start the treadmill and set the speed to 4.8 km/h (3 mph). With the help of a
6 mm Allen key, which is included in the hardware bag, turn the right and left tension bolts a half rotation clockwise.
Once you have set both sides with a half rotation, test the treadmill to see if it slips any more. If it still slips, repeat the step and test it again.
If you turn one side more than the other, the belt will drift off the side and must be centered /aligned again. Do NOT tighten MORE THAN two full rotations on each side.
If it still slips, please contact your contract partner.
NOTE: An over-tensioning of the belt may cause unnecessary friction and wear on the belt, motor and electronic system.
Aligning the running mat
Make sure that the running mat is always centered on your treadmill. The running style and uneven floors are two things that may cause a drifting of the running mat.
Small adjustments to the bolts (on the back of the treadmill) are required if the belt moves away from the center.
1. Press “START” and increase the speed of the treadmill to 4.8 km/h (3 mph).
2. Stand behind the treadmill in order to determine which direction it moves away from.
3. If the belt drifts off to the left, turn the left adjusting bolt 1/4 clockwise and the right adjusting bolt 1/4 counterclockwise (see figure 1).
4. If the belt drifts off to the right, turn the left adjusting bolt 1/4 counterclockwise and the right adjusting bolt 1/4 clockwise (see figure 2).
5. Watch the belt run for about two minutes. Repeat steps 3 to 5 if necessary.

Move the belt to the right
Belt lubrication
Move the belt to the left
Use only 100% silicone and avoid silicone sprays that contain additives and oil
distillates. An ounce of silicone should be used per application.
The running belt should be lubricated every three months (independent of usage) or every 50 operating hours depending on what occurs first. Even if the treadmill is not used, the silicone will evaporate after some time and the belt dries out.
Note: Even though the running belt was already lubricated by the manufacturer, the running mat should be lubricated before first use - just in case the belt dried out
within the production time and the purchase date.
Lubricate the silicone on the underside of the running belt. Do NOT apply it to the running surface. To do this, put the treadmill upright and apply the silicone to the inner side of the belt. Spray the silicone downwards and across the belt. Turn the belt around half-way and repeat the step. About an ounce of silicone should be used for application.
Note: When you do the belt lubrication, make sure that the treadmill is on a surface that can be cleaned easily. After you have lubricated the belt, remove excess silicone from belt and frame.

The energy saving mode turns off the power of the treadmill - except for a weakly illuminated scan lighting. The power consumption here is also stopped below 0.1 watts.
BLUETOOTH
The treadmill has an integrated Bluetooth module in order to support the Strength
Master apps. These can be downloaded in the Apple Store or on Google Play (optional).
eFOLD FUNCTION eFold is a simple and electronic folding system. It helps you fold and unfold the
treadmill.
INTELLI-GUARD™
This treadmill is equipped with the Intelli-Guard safety function. This function detects when you stop running on the treadmill and stops the treadmill automatically due to safety reasons in order to avoid falls and the resulting injuries. The Intelli-Guard function is triggered when the treadmill detects that you are no longer walking or running on it.
NOTE:
The Intelli-Guard function is automatically removed when the speed on the treadmill is below 1.0 mph (1.6 km/h). If you are in this speed level, the step sign will be illuminated. When the sign is illuminated, the treadmill will not stop automatically.
If the speed is more than 1.0 mph (1.6km/h), Intelli-Guard is first activated after 25 counted steps.
28 TX 40e
TX 40e
NOTE:
After 20 seconds, the console emits a beeping sound every five seconds and the treadmill will then stop automatically. These sounds serve as a reminder that the running mat will soon stop. If you are still on the treadmill, please put your feet on the side rails and prepare for the running mat to stop. The Intelli-Guard function neither replaces the usage of your safety key nor appropriate measures to stop the treadmill when it is not being used.
INTELLI-STEP™
The treadmill has the INTELLI-STEP counting function. This function records all resistance on the running mat when you step on it. There are different factors that influence the accuracy of this function, for example, running style, weight and habits of the user.
Example: The data of a light user and specifically a light user running with an incline is more difficult to record for INTELLI-STEP. The higher the incline, the more difficult it is for this function to record the steps. It also applies to slow speeds. In summary, it can be stated that INTELLI-STEP represents a great function for users who place value on a step count program (walking or running). However, it depends on many variables in regards to accuracy. The accuracy of the count depends on individual characteristics as well as variables in regards to the treadmill usage.

Program overview
The advanced console of the treadmill contains programs that can each be divided into one of the four zones: sport training, healthy lifestyle, weight control and heart rate control.
You can complete any of the programs either in the speed or incline control program.
32 TX 40e
TX 40e
After you have selected the program and the speed control, the speed will change during training, whereby it follows the respective program profile. If you select the incline control for the program, the incline changes depending on the respective incline profile of the program during training. It applies for all programs except for user-defined programs. It allows for the advance selection between the speed and incline program.
Sport training
P-01: Long, slow distance
Long, slow distance: (40-minute default)
Long, slow distance is great training for everyone! Beginners can easily begin their training program. The training should be done at least once a week in order to maximize the complete development of cardiovascular endurance. Training sessions with long, slow distance are also wonderful for advanced users who do this training on days that follow a harder, more intense training session.
P-02: Short interval
Short interval: (20-minute default)
Short intervals are ideal for beginners who would like to profit from the benefits of interval training, but are not yet prepared for harder and longer intense interval training. Short intervals are also ideal for advanced users in order to develop their speed and anaerobic
condition. Short interval exercises are particularly fun after days with exercises with a longer duration and slow speed. Remember that it is important to vary your training i ntensity and duration in order to maximize your fitness development. Make sure to integrate a few
interval training sessions in your training program - at least one to two times a week.
33
P-03: Moderate interval
Moderate interval: (30-minute default)
As soon as you complete regular training and you can determine an improvement in your general fitness, you are ready for training in the “moderate intensity interval”. Start with a low intensity and increase your training intensity to the level that represents a challenge, but is not too difficult. Remember that for this training, you change between a recovery interval followed by a high intensity interval. You should feel comfortable challenging yourself while training, because the next recovery interval is waiting for you. This training improves your overall aerobic endurance and maximizes your anaerobic fitness.
P-04: Long interval
Long interval: (40-minute default)
Long interval exercises are ideal to maximize the calories burnt and to improve your anaerobic fitness - you can train harder on a level with higher intensity. Similar to moderate intervals, you must remember that a recovery interval follows every intensive interval. Thus, you can comfortably prepare for exercises with an increasingly higher level.
34 TX 40e
TX 40e
P-05: Negative interval -1
Negative interval -1: (30-minute default)
The negative interval -1 provides you with the benefits of a training with an even speed. Simultaneously, it motivates you to slowly reach an increasingly higher training intensity. This allows for a slow decline in the training intensity. You can improve your overall health and fitness and motivate yourself in a comfortable manner to a higher overall intensity of your training.
P-06: Negative interval -2
Negative interval -2: (30-minute default)
T he negative interval -2 was designed in order to offer you training that begins with a slight increase in the training intensity, continues the training with a set intensity and finally ends with a progressive decrease in intensity. Training that is based on an increase at the beginning and a decrease at the end of the training develops your overall aerobic cardiovascular endurance. Training that includes a lowering of
intensity is also ideal to maximize the calories burnt - however, it is most suitable for a longer duration, for example, 40 or 50 minutes.
35
P-07: Fartlek
Fartlek: (30-minute default)
The varying training intensity with a constantly changing interval exercise, beginning with a slow speed and increasing to a moderate to high speed, will enrich to your
training. Your training sessions can be completed faster than you can imagine,
whereby your body and your mind will be provided with excellent fitness benefits.
Brain research proves that a constantly varying intensity while training has many
benefits for your entire brain fitness. The body experiences wonderful growth in anaerobic cardiovascular fitness thanks to the increase of training intensity with
constantly varying intervals with a subsequent lowering of intensity.
Healthy lifestyle
P-08: Uphill
Uphill: (30-minute default)
Increase your training intensity gradually and with a lot of fun with the uphill training. The goal of this training is to stimulate your body to improve your overall cardiovascular fitness and to maximize the muscle cell growth in the stressed muscles.
This uphill training was designed in order to start with a slow intensity, to increase it constantly to a peak intensity and then to lower this again gradually. During the peak intensity, you maximize your calories burnt whereby your body can train longer and still profit from the higher intensity when you slowly decrease the intensity again and return to the initial level.
36 TX 40e
TX 40e
P-09: Pyramid climb
Pyramid climb: (30-minute default)
Gradual increases in intensity during training are ideal for stimulating your body to improve overall cardiovascular fitness, whereby the muscle cell growth in the stressed muscles is maximized. The pyramid climb was designed in order to begin with a very slow speed and gradually increase intensity to the peak and finally to gradually
return to the initial level. During the peak intensity, you maximize your calories burnt
whereby your body can train longer and still profit from the higher intensity if you slowly decrease the intensity again and return to the initial level.
P-10: Climb plateau
Climb plateau: (30-minute default)
The climb plateau training delivers you all of the advantages of consistent training, but motivates you to maintain a higher, consistent intensity level. You can improve your overall health and fitness and simultaneously slowly and comfortably bring yourself to a higher overall training intensity. Remember that if you simply use your treadmill with the same speed and same training duration every day, your body will only improve to the level that you have created. In order to improve your overall
health and fitness, you always have to change your exercises so that you do not do the same workout the entire week. Slowly increase your overall training intensity and simultaneously your entire training duration.
37
P-11: Ladder
Ladder: (30-minute default)
The biggest advantages of this exercise are the direct advantages for the heart and cardiovascular system. The heart-health-ladder was designed in order to supply your cardiovascular system with a series of progressively harder training intensities, which improve your overall aerobic endurance and simultaneously stimulate your anaerobic endurance. Remember that if you do this training, it may be challenging for a few minutes. However, each increase was carefully planned so that recovery intervals are also included after the highest intensity intervals. Thus, you will feel good during training and you can motivate yourself to improve your cardiovascular fitness.
P-12: Uphill interval
Uphill interval: (20-minute default)
Uphill intervals are unique, because they supply the body with the benefits of interval training as well as the additional benefit of a gradual increase of the overall intensity of the maximum interval during training. Start this training at a level that is comfortable for you and constantly increase intensity during each maximum interval, whereby you can motivate yourself every time to a somewhat higher intensity and be aware of the following recovery intervals. With the help of this training, you can maximize the calories burnt during each session with higher intensity and improve your overall anaerobic fitness.
38 TX 40e
TX 40e
Weight control
P-13 Constant speed
Constant speed: (40-minute default)
Improve your fitness and stimulate your body to burn more fat. Exercises with a
constant speed are great to help you improve your overall basic endurance. Most exercises of this type have the objective of maintaining a set load level throughout the entire exercise. You start the “constant speed” training with a very slow speed and increase this during training to a moderate speed. Your goal is to train in a low, moderate to high, moderate intensity.
P-14: Long, slow distance
Long, slow distance: (40-minute default)
Long, slow distance is great training for everyone! Beginners can easily start the training program, whereby they should train at least once a week in order to maximize the growth of heart rate endurance. It is equally excellent for experienced users who do this training on days following a harder, more intense training day.
39
P-15: Cardio run
Cardio run: (20-minute default)
Cardio run is a training with a constant speed, however, with a higher intensity than with the “long, slow distance” training. Cardio run is more of a medium or raised training session designed to motivate you to achieve a challenging, constant speed and to maintain this speed throughout the entire training time. Cardio run is a great training program if you want to prepare for a special event.
P-16: Short interval
Short interval: (20-minute default)
Research studies show that short interval exercises are ideal for those who want to increase their weight reduction and improve their overall cardiovascular fitness.
Varying intensities during training - from a moderate, slow stage to high intensity, in a defined time - and the repetition of these units maximize your overall calories burnt during training. Another advantage is that the user is not forced to maintain a high intensity level throughout the entire training. The short recovery intervals allow your body to do more successful training with high intensity throughout the entire training.
40 TX 40e
TX 40e
P-17: Uphill running
Uphill running: (30-minute default)
The uphill running program gradually increases the intensity of the training peaks with a high intensity. The goal is to motivate the body to improve the overall cardiovascular fitness, whereby the muscle cell growth of the stressed muscles is maximized as well.
With this training, you start with a slow, comfortable speed and gradually increase it to the peak intensity, followed by a quick decrease in intensity to a recovery interval.
The total calories consumption is maximized during peak intensity, whereby your body can train for a longer period of time.

Heart rate measuring
Pulse measurement through hand sensors
The hand sensors integrated in the handles allow you to determine your heart rate.
You can measure your heart rate by lightly grasping the sensors with both hands at the same time. Blood pressure changes occur due to the heartbeat. The sensors measure the changes to the electric skin resistance caused by it. These values are then used to create an average and are displayed on the screen of the console as a heart rate.
Note:
For some people, the skin resistance change caused by the heart rate is so minimal that the measurements do not allow for usable values. Strong callus or sweat on the hands may also impair a correct measurement. In such cases, the heart rate will not be shown at all or only incorrectly.
If the measurement is incorrect or not taken at all, please check if it happens to only one person or to several people. If the pulse display only does not work in a single case, the equipment is not defective. In this case, we recommend using a chest strap to achieve a permanently correct heart rate display.
CAUTION: Your training equipment is not a medical device. Different factors may influence the accuracy of the heart rate display. The heart rate display only
serves as a training aid.
Telemetric heart rate measuring
Your treadmill is already equipped with a heart rate receiver as standard. Using a chest strap makes it possible for you to have a wireless heart rate measuring. This optimal and ECG-precise type of measuring reads the heart rate directly from the skin through a transmitting chest strap. The chest strap then sends the impulse to the receiver integrated in the console.
Positioning the chest strap and moistening the electrodes:
Place the belt directly below the chest, while the transmitter should be placed on the middle of the chest. The chest strap should sit comfortably, but not too loose. If the belt is too loose, the contact to the electrodes may be disrupted or the belt may slip while exercising. The transmitter turns on automatically once it is put on. In order to
42 TX 40e
TX 40e
allow for a precise measuring, you should moisten the rubber electrodes. This is best done with a special chest strap contact gel, which is also used for ultrasound scans.
Note:
If you have not been active in doing sports for a longer period of time, you should first go to your physician in order to discuss your training with them. You should also contact your physician in advance in the event of heart problems, high/low blood pressure and obesity.
Training with heart rate orientation
Heart rate orientation guarantees an extremely effective and healthy training. Through your age and the following table, you can quickly and easily read and determine the optimal pulse for your training. An acoustic alarm will sound if your heart rate exceeds the set target heart rate. Which target heart rate is important for which training goal can be found out in the following.
Fat burning (weight management): The main goal here is to burn deposits of fat. In order to achieve this training goal, a low training intensity (approximately 55% of the maximum heart rate) and a longer training period are required.
Cardiovascular training (cardio training): The primary goal is to increase endurance and fitness through an improved provision of oxygen through the cardiovascular system. In order to achieve this training goal, medium intensity (approximately 75% of the maximum heart rate) with a medium training period is required.
Anaerobic (maximum) load training: The main goal of maximum load training is to improve recovery after short, intense loads in order to be able to quickly return to the aerobic zone. In order to achieve this training goal, a high intensity (approximately
90% of the maximum heart rate) with short, intense load is required, which is followed by a recovery phase in order to prevent muscle fatigue.
43
Example:
For a 45-year-old man or woman, the maximum heart rate is 175 (220 - 45 = 175).
• The fat burning target zone (55%) is at approximately 96 beats/min.
= (220 - age) x 0.55.
• The cardio target zone (75%) is at approximately 131 beats/min.
= (220 - age) x 0.75.
• The maximum heart rate for an anaerobic load training (90%) is at approximately
157 beats/min. = (220 - age) x 0.9.

10 tips for effective running training
1. Set goals
What would you like to achieve with your training? Weight regulation, improved endurance, prevent risk of disease, more mobility, cardiovascular training, etc. In order to achieve your long-term training goal, set individual partial goals, e. g., weekly or monthly goals.
2. Concentration on training
Try to only dedicate yourself to your training unit and do not be distracted.
3. Correct movement
When you do the movement, you should start at a moderate speed and hold on the handles if needed. The speed can then be increased gradually. The adjustment of your natural running style will occur relatively quickly. Beginners and overweight people should start with a walking program in order to not overload their joints in the beginning.
4. Correct breathing / appropriate resistance level
Do not overexert yourself physically and mentally by starting with resistance levels that are too high. Start slowly and increase the resistance steadily. Aim for regular and calm breathing.
5. Keep yourself properly hydrated
Drink, drink, drink! Have a drinking bottle close by during your workout.
6. Sufficient recovery periods
Allow your body and your muscles enough time to recover after your workout. Only a relaxed muscle will be fully operational again.
7. Choose a diversified program
Different program functions of your training console support you in doing this. For example, you can complete an interval, incline or step counting training session.
8. Creating the right workout
Every training session should have a warm-up phase, a cool-down phase and a
targeted stretching. It increases physical and mental performance and prevents injuries and sore muscles.
45
9. Workout journal
Keep a record of your training sessions. Note the date, resting pulse, active pulse, recovery pulse, resistance level, time, distance, calories burnt and fitness level.
10. Reward yourself
Do something good for you and your body after training or after achieving a partial goal.
Go to the sauna or a swimming pool. Mix a protein shake or enjoy a delicious salad.
5.3
Designing a workout
We recommend two to three training sessions a week. There should be a five-minute warm-up phase before every training. The training ends with a cool-down and targeted stretching.
Warm-Up approx. five min. Dynamic movement of larger muscle groups at low intensity. The body core temperature rises and the metabolism process starts quicker.
