INTRODUCTION

This Owner’s Manual will acquaint you with the assembly, operation and maintenance of your

TREADCLIMBER® cardio machine.

We highly recommend that you read this owner’s manual prior to setting up and using your machine. The information on the following pages will enable you to begin easily, quickly and safely.

WARNING

Your TREADCLIMBER® is designed for aerobic exercise in a gymnasium or health club environment.

Please check with your physician prior to beginning any exercise program.

Do not push yourself to excess. Stop if you are feeling faint, dizzy, or exhausted. Use common sense when using this machine. Please read the owner’s manual in its entirety before operating.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS WARNING

This product will be wired for either 120 VAC nominal power input OR 230 VAC nominal input. It is factory-equipped with a specific electric cord and plug to permit connection to the proper electric circuit. Make sure that the product is connected to a dedicated power line having an outlet with the same configuration as that of the plug. NO adapter should be used with this product. If the product must be reconnected for use on a different type of electric circuit, the reconnection should be made by qualified service personnel. Warning: If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer, its service agent, or similarly qualified persons in order to avoid hazard.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

ATTENTION

We recommend that units be spaced a minimum of 20.0 inches (0.5 m) apart to allow safe and easy ingress and egress. More importantly, there must be at least 48 inches (1.25 m) of free space behind them.

As with any motorized equipment, the area where these units are located must be free of obstructions and fixtures with sharp edges to prevent injury in the event that a user trips or loses balance and falls. Failure to follow the obstruction free spacing requirement may result in entrapment of the user and cause significant injury. DO NOT place near wet areas (such as pools, showers, etc.).

HINTS AND TIPS FOR GETTING STARTED

The following hints and tips will assist in training your users to maximize the fitness benefits of your

TREADCLIMBER®.

Walk at a rate that feels comfortable and most natural, yet is sufficiently vigorous to get a good cardio workout.

Try different walking rhythms. In manual operation, adjust your pace from low speed to high speed, then back to low. As you become more comfortable with the machine try going faster or using the preset programs.

Watch the Graphic Display to anticipate incline level changes. When you use the preset programs, the display shows changes in incline level as tall or short columns. The display also notifies you of incline level changes with a series of beeps and a flashing display element.

For best workout, use highest incline level setting. The maximum incline level will greatly increase your work effort and calorie burn, even at low speed.

QUICK START

Quick Start lets you begin your workout by simply pressing one key. Quick Start uses a default weight of 155 pounds and a time limit of 99 minutes. YOU control the speed, incline level and distance for up to the maximum allowed program time.

To operate the Quick Start program:

1 Stand on the machine and press the QUICK START key. The walk belt slowly accelerate to minimum speed of 0.5 mph (0.8 kph).

PRESET PROGRAMS

The TREADCLIMBER® offers several preset programs to add variety and challenge to your workout.

GOAL-BASED PROGRAMS (TIME, CALORIES, DISTANCE)

When you begin a workout, often you have a goal in mind. With the TREADCLIMBER, you can set your program to your personal goal, and it will track your progress to help you reach it. You can set a goal for

TIME, CALORIES or DISTANCE.

For all three goal types, after you select the program, the console will prompt you to enter the goal. You can enter the goal directly using the numeric keypad, or you can use the Speed UP/DOWN buttons to change the number on the display. When you have the number you desire entered, press the OK button to select.

The goal ranges are:

TIME: 5-99 Minutes

CALORIES: 50-2,000

DISTANCE: 1-19.8 Miles/1-33 Kilometers

After your goal value is entered, the console will ask for user weight. This number is used in the calorie calculation while working out, so it is important to enter this for the most accurate calorie calculation possible. You will enter the weight in the same way as the goal values above, and press OK when done.

Once the workout begins, you can adjust speed and incline level as desired.

INTERVALS

The Intervals program allows you to customize an interval-based workout to your needs. When you select this option, the console will prompt you to enter user weight. Then you will be prompted to enter the

Interval Parmeters for the workout: interval time, number of intervals, speed, level and time for both the work (Max) and recovery (Min) intervals. The entered parameters are:

Interval Time

Number of Intervals

Min Interval Speed

Min Interval Incline Level

Max Interval Speed

Max Interval Level

ROLLING HILLS

This program provides variety by periodically changing the Speed and/or Incline Level over the course of the workout. When you select this option, the console will prompt you to enter the total time desired for the

35

workout (5-99 minutes), user weight, maximum speed desired and maximum level desired. The workout will begin at a low speed and level, and the TreadClimber will adjust the Speed and Level as you go. Speed and

Level can also be adjusted manually at any time.

HEART RATE TRAINING PROGRAMS

The TreadClimber offers two HR training programs.

NOTE: For best results, use a HR strap. Contact

HR grips may provide a less accurate reading

CONSTANT HEART RATE CONTROL

This program is designed to maintain your HR at a constant level by varying your walking speed over the course of the workout. Note that your HR will vary above and below the target rate during the program.

When you select this program, the console will prompt you to enter the total time desired for the workout

(5-99 minutes), user weight and your target HR (70-200 Beats per Minute). When all parameters are entered, the workout will begin and continue for the time entered.

HEART RATE INTERVALS

This program is designed to gradually elevate your heart rate to the upper end of your selected training range, then gradually decrease your heart rate to the lower end of your training range by setting Incline

Level to 5 and varying speed. During the workout, this cycle will repeat several times, creating an interval training effect that is customized to your desired training range.

When you select this program, the console will prompt you to enter the total time desired for the workout

(5-99 minutes), user weight and your Lower and Upper Target HR (70-200 Beats per Minute). When all parameters are entered, the workout will begin and continue for the time entered.

NOTE: during setup, there must be at least an 18 BPM difference between the lower and upper HR limits to ensure an interval workout.

36

COOLDOWN CYCLE

Once you have completed your workout program, the TreadClimber enters a 2-minute cooldown cycle. You can adjust speed and incline level during this cycle if you desire

When the cooldown cycle ends, the unit will slow to a stop. If you wish to exit the cooldown cycle before it ends automatically, press the STOP key.

USING THE COOLING FAN

The TreadClimber is equipped with a built-in cooling fan to increase your comfort during a workout. You can control the fan speed during your workout. The fan will automaticlly turn on one minute into your workout.

To operate the cooling fan:

Press the FAN key once to set the fan speed to high.

Press the FAN key a second time to set the fan speed to low.

Press the FAN key a third time to turn the cooling fan off.

The fan will remain at the set speed if you pause your program. The fan will turn off automatically if you exit your workout, or when you complete your program.

If the cooling fan is not available for use, the Information Window displays an advisory message when you press the FAN key.

HEART RATE MONITORING

Heart rate monitoring can help you to determine if your workout is too challenging or not challenging enough. Monitoring heart rate is easy with the TREADCLIMBER®, which provides both chest strap compatibility, and heart rate grips that allow you to monitor your heart automatically. Your goal will be to keep your exercise heart rate at 60 to 90 percent of the theoretical maximum for your age as listed on the

Target Heart Rate table and graph in chapter 4.

NOTE: The Heart Rate monitor is not a medical test, nor is it designed as a medical test. It is simply a guide to target heart rate training. Please consult with your physician prior to engaging in any strenuous physical activity.

IMPORTANT: The manufacturer does not warrant the heart rate system performance on this product, as the heart rate system performance varies, based on a user’s physiology, fitness level, age, method of use and other factors. Furthermore, the heart rate system is not for medical use.

37

CONTACT HEART RATE MONITORING

You may use the heart rate contact grips to automatically check your heart rate. Just follow these steps:

1 Grasp the stainless steel heart rate contact grips; you do not have to squeeze tightly.

2 When a heart rate has been detected, the icon displays in the Information Window, indicating a calculation is taking place.

3 When your heart rate has been acquired, the icon will begin pulsating, and your heart rate in beats per minute (BPM) will be displayed in the Information Window continuously.

4 Release the Heart Rate grips if you wish to remove your heart rate from the display.

NOTE: Contact heart rate may not give accurate BPM.

CHEST STRAP HEART RATE MONITORING

You may use the heart rate strap to automatically check your heart rate. Just follow these steps:

1 Before beginning your workout, or during a pause, moisten the back of the transmitter on the heart rate strap (not included). Place the strap snugly around your chest with the transmitter resting directly over your sternum.

2 When a heart rate has been detected, the indicator illuminates, indicating a calculation is taking place.

3 When your heart rate has been acquired, the indicator will begin pulsating, and your heart rate in beats per minute (BPM) will be displayed in the Heart Rate Window continuously.

4 Remove the heart rate strap if you wish to remove your heart rate from the display.

NOTE: The performance of the transmitter may be affected by body types, body oils, metal in clothing, and outside electrical interference. Always be sure that the transmitter and skin are in good contact. Avoid operating other electrical equipment near your TreadClimber® when you use the heart rate strap.

38

PREVENTATIVE MAINTENANCE

Your TreadClimber® must be maintained by perfoming regular Preventative Maintenance. Failure to perform regularly scheduled preventative maintenance can lead to premature wear; cumulative and other effects, such as misalignment and create safety hazards for the user. Failure to perform regular Preventative

Maintenance will lead to unnecessary downtime and may void your warranty. For this reason, we highly recommend following the maintenance schedules listed in this manual.

DAILY MAINTENANCE

■

Remove excessive accumulations of dust, dirt, and other substances by using a clean soft cloth and a non-abrasive liquid cleaner, such as Formula 409™ or FANTASTIK™. Wipe down the display board, handrails, shroud and heart rate grips.

NOTE: DO NOT spray the cleaner directly onto the display board or heart rate grips. Do not use liquid cleaner under the walking belt.

■

To ensure the longevity of the walking belts, clean under the walking belts with a soft, dry cloth. To clean, slide the cloth between the walking belt and deck from one side of the frame to the other (you may need a ruler or similar tool to slide the towel under the belt), then, holding the edges of the cloth, pull the cloth from the headroller down to the tailroller.

■

NOTE: DO NOT clean the walking belt by activating the unit.

Inspect the walking belts for alignment and tension. Do not tighten the walking belt every day. If you notice slipping, adjust the walking belt tension using the instructions provided in “Adjustments-

Slipping-Walking Belt” (later in this chapter), or contact Customer Services as described at the beginning of this chapter.

■

Ensure the power cord is not under moving parts of the TreadClimber This will prevent the power cord from being pinched or from binding up the treadles.

WEEKLY MAINTENANCE

■

Vacuum the floor under and around the Tread Climber. Do so by moving the Tread Climberwith its rollers to another spot.

NOTE: Take care not to damage the power cord while vacuuming.

■

Inspect the inside surface of the walking belt if the belt fiber are frayed excesively, (it will feel fuzzy to the touch), replace the belt.

NOTE: Never install a new walking belt on a used deck.

■

■

Inspect the display and handrail screws for security, and retighten if necessary.

Inspect the display panel/keypad for wear.

39

MONTHLY MAINTENANCE

WARNING: To prevent personal injury, always turn the machine off and unplug the power cord before performing maintenance inside the motor compartment.

■

Remove the motor shroud and vacuum around the motor and its ventilation holes. Avoid bumping or damaging parts normally protected by the shroud.

■

Check the traedle belt tension so the treadles operate freely without making excessive noise.

ADJUSTMENTS

The walking belt and its headroller, drive belt, tailroller, and walking deck are designed to be self-centering, slip-free, and smooth operating without the need for frequent adjustments. Walking belt sideward movement, slipping, or grinding after extended use, or thumping during initial use, may be corrected by the following procedures. Note, each belt must be adjusted separately:

Adjust TRACKING: If the walking belt is not centered on the tailroller and is either too far left or right, adjust tracking using the follow- ing steps:

1.

Turn the Tread Climber on. Increase Tread Climber speed

2.

Adjust tracking by turning the left Allen screws

(located at the front side of the head roller) with a 1/4" Allen wrench in 1/4-turn increments.

If the walking belt is tracking to the left, turn the screws clock-wise in 1/4 turn increments.

If the walking belt is tracking to the right, turn the left screw counter-clockwise in 1/4 turn increments.

3.

NOTE: ONLY USE THE LEFT SCREW FOR TRACKING

ADJUSTMENT.

4.

After the walking belt appears to be tracking properly, increase the Tread Climber speed to 4.0 mph (6.7 kph) and verify that the belt stays centered.

40

Slipping-Walking Belt: Remove the motor shroud and operate the machine slowly at 1 to 2 mph

(2 to 3 kph). While observing the tailroller, walk on the belt and try to slow it down by gently applying pressure with your feet while holding the handrails. If only the walking belt, and not the tailroller, slows down, tighten the walking belt by turning both the right and left tailroller adjustment bolts clock- wise 1/4-turn. Repeat this adjustment until the walking belt no longer slips; ensuring that you turn both tailroller bolts an equal number of turns. Re-install the motor shroud.

If the headroller and the walking belt both slow down, tighten the drive belt as described under

“Slipping-Drive Belt”, below.

Slipping Drive Belt: The drive belt tensioning system is designed for minimal adjustment throughout the life of the belt. To check if the drive belt tension needs to be adjusted, do the following

1. Run Tread Climber at 2 mph (3kph) and try and stop the belt by applying foot pressure while holding onto the handrails. If the walking belt and roller stop, but the motor continues to turn, the drive belt tension needs adjustment.

2. Remove the motor shroud.

3. Release belt tension by releasing the belt tensioner.

4. Move the spring to the second hole on the tensioner swing arm.

5. Re-tension with the tensioner.

6. Reinstall motor shroud.

MOTOR CALIBRATION

The Motor Calibration function allows for calibration of the treadclimber's speed function.

CAUTION: Changing Max Speed setting may expose users to increase risk. Any changes to the treadclimber's maximum speed settings should be clearly communicated to all users of the treadclimber. To enter the Motor Calibration function:

1. While in the Maintenance Mode, press the key, or navigate to the Motor Calibration by the next or the previous parameter buttons .

2. While in the Motor Calibration, press the key to begin the calibration. The information window will display “PWM= XXXXXX SPEED=XX.X” where the X’s are data the that test will generate.

When the test is finished the information window will display one of the 2 messages “Passed

Calibration” or “Failed Calibration”. If “Failed Calibration” is displayed run test again, if it continues, call for maintenance.

3. Press the STOP key to exit the Motor Calibration function.

TROUBLESHOOTING

We recommend that you refer your questions about your TREADCLIMBER operation and suspected malfunctions to Customer Service Hotline at (888) 678 2476. However, you may wish to investigate error messages that appear in the Information Window. You may do so by reviewing the information in this section.

KEY DOWN: This error generally occurs when a key is held pressed while the ON/OFF switch is moved to ON. It may also happen if a key becomes stuck. When you see KEY DOWN:

Set the ON/OFF switch to OFF; wait 2 seconds.

Set the ON/OFF switch to ON. The TreadClimber should be operational again. Notify Service if additional assistance is needed.

NO STOP: This error generally occurs when the Stop Switch is not connected tightly to the circuit board of the Display Control Panel. It may also happen if the circuitry associated with the switch develops a fault. When you see NO STOP:

Set the ON/OFF switch to OFF; wait 2 seconds.

Set the ON/OFF switch to ON. Notify Service if additional assistance is needed.

CHECK SPEED SYS and SPEED CHANGE: These errors generally occur when the walking belt speed sensor is disconnected, faulty, or misaligned relative to the revolutions-per-minute (RPM) sensor of the motor. They may also occur if the speed sensor cable is damaged, or if the Motor

Control Board (MCB) is misadjusted or faulty.

When you see CHECK SPEED SYS or SPEED CHANGE:

Set the ON/OFF switch to OFF; wait 2 seconds.

Set the ON/OFF switch to ON. Notify Service if additional assistance is needed.
