Warm Up Exercises

EXERCISE GUIDELINES

WARNING! Before beginning this or any exercise program, you should consult your physician. This is especially important for individuals over the age of 35 or individuals with pre-existing health problems.

Warming up prepares the body for the exercise by increasing circulation, supplying more oxygen to the muscles and raising body temperature. Begin each workout with 5 to 10 minutes of stretching and light exercise to warm up. The photos on this page show several forms of basic stretching you may perform before your workouts. In order to achieve an adequate warm-up, perform each stretch three times.

6

TOE TOUCH STRETCH

Stand bending your knees slightly and slowly bend forward from your hips. Allow your back and shoulders to relax as you reach down toward your toes as far as possible.

Hold for 15 counts, then relax. This will stretch your hamstrings, back of knees, and back.

HAMSTRING STRETCH

Sit with one leg extended. Bring the sole of the opposite foot toward you and rest it against the inner thigh of your extended leg.

Reach toward your toes as far as possible. Hold for 15 counts, then relax. This will stretch your hamstrings, lower back, and groin.

CALF/ACHILLES STRETCH

With one leg in front of the other, reach forward and place your hands against a wall.

Keep your back leg straight and your back foot flat on the floor. Bend your front leg, lean forward and move your hips toward the wall. Hold for 15 counts, then relax. To cause further stretching of the Achilles tendon, bend your back leg as well. This will stretch your calves, Achilles tendons, and ankles.

QUADRICEPS STRETCH

With one hand against a wall for balance, reach back and grasp one foot with your other hand. Bring your heel as close to your buttocks as possible. Hold for 15 counts, then relax. This will stretch your quadriceps and hip muscles.

INNER THIGH STRETCH

Sit with the soles of your feet together and your knees outward. Pull your feet toward your groin area as far as possible. Hold for 15 counts, then relax. This will stretch your quadriceps and hip muscles.

Power Requirements

IMPROPER CONNECTION OF THE EQUIPMENT GROUNDING CONNECTOR CAN

RESULT IN A RISK OF AN ELECTRIC SHOCK. CHECK WITH A QUALIFIED ELEC-

TRICIAN OR SERVICE MAN IF YOU ARE IN DOUBT AS TO WHETHER THE PROD-

UCT IS PROPERLY GROUNDED. DO NOT MODIFY THE PLUG PROVIDED WITH

THE PRODUCT IF IT WILL NOT FIT THE OUTLET. HAVE A PROPER OUTLET

INSTALLED BY A QUALIFIED ELECTRICIAN.

This treadmill can be seriously damaged by sudden voltage changes in your home’s electrical power.

Voltage spikes, surges, and noise interference can result from weather conditions or from other appliances being turned on or off. To reduce the possibility of treadmill damage, always use a surge protector (not included) with your treadmill.

Surge protectors can be purchased at most hardware stores. The manufacturer recommends a single outlet surge protector with UL 1449 rating as a Transient Voltage Surge Suppressor (TVSS) with UL suppressed voltage rating of 400V or less and an electrical rating of 120VAC, 15 amps.

This treadmill must be grounded to reduce the risk of electrical shock. Grounding provides a path of least resistance for electric current should the treadmill malfunction. This treadmill comes with an electrical cord with an equipment-grounding conductor and a grounding plug. Always plug the power cord into a surge protector, and plug the surge protector into an appropriate outlet that is properly installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances.

This product is for use on a nominal 120-volt circuit and has a grounding plug that looks like the plug illustrated in the drawing below.

See page 13 for pictures and diagrams

HEART RATE MONITOR MODE

The treadmill may at any time be used in the Heart Rate Monitor Mode. If the signal from the chest strap is detected, heart rate BPM will be displayed in the INCLINE window. The incline will only be briefly displayed if manual or program changes are initiated. The Heart Rate program is designed to keep your heart at a desired amount of “beats per minute” by automatically adjusting the incline. For example, you have programmed in a desired heart rate of 125 BPM and your heart rate is only at 110 BPM. If you are wearing the Heart Rate Transmitter, correctly the incline will automatically increase to intensify the work load, causing your heart rate to slowly climb to 125 BPM. The treadmill will attempt to maintain your target heart rate through adjustments to the incline for the remainder of your workout. In the same respect, if your heart rate is above your programmed amount of BPM’s, the incline will automatically decrease to lower your heart rate. You may at any time during the Heart Rate Program adjust/override the speed and/or the incline by simply pressing the correct corresponding button. You may also change your

“Target Heart Rate” at any time by pressing the TARGET UP or TARGET DOWN button.

HEART RATE PROGRAM OPERATION

 Plug treadmill into a surge protector outlet. Attach the Red Safety Key on to the treadmill console.

 Stand on the treadmill and straddle belt. Attach safety key clip to your clothes.

 Press POWER button. Place the Heart Rate Transmitter strap across your chest and connect ends. (Make sure your skin is moist and the strap is snug for accurate transmission). At this time, if the display is receiving a signal from the chest strap, the incline window will begin to settle on your current heart rate. To use HEART RATE program without the chest strap, continuously hold the EKG grips through out the whole workout program.

 Press the HEART RATE CONTROL button to enter the electronics into the Heart Rate

Program. The incline window will momentarily flash ‘125’, which is the default program target heart rate.

 The WORKOUT TIME window will blink. Use the SPEED + or – arrows to select your workout time. Press ENTER PROGRAM.

 The SPEED window will then blink. Use the same + or – arrows to select the speed for your workout. Press ENTER PROGRAM.

 The incline window (if receiving your heart rate accurately) will show current BPM, and the small red light labeled PULSE adjacent to the incline window, will be illuminated. (If the receiver is not receiving an accurate reading, the incline window will be flashing - - - -).

 To adjust the pre-set target heart rate press the TARGET +/TARGET– button then press the

ENTER PROGRAM button.

 Press START/STOP button. Belt will begin to move after 4 seconds. Step on belt slowly after the belt starts moving.

 Press START/STOP button. Belt will begin to move after 4 seconds. Step on belt slowly after the belt starts moving.

The small light at the top of the console labeled TARGET will be illuminated if you are at your target. If you are not, the arrow shaped lights will illuminate and reflect if you are above or below your goal. If you are not within 25 BPM of your “Target heart rate” the program will not work. DO NOT STOP TO START OVER. Continue exercising and your heart rate will naturally increase. The program will continually monitor your heart rate and periodically adjust the incline up or down to increase or decrease the resistance thereby keeping you at your target zone. At the conclusion of the programmed time the TIME window will flash 00:00 and the

CALORIES/DISTANCE window will continue to accumulate values. The treadmill will continue operation until the START/STOP button or the PAUSE button is pressed. Press the POWER button to turn off the treadmill.

Belt Adjustment and Tension

WARNING!

Do not over-tighten rollers! This will cause premature roller bearing failure!

Belt adjustment and tension performs two functions: adjustment for tension and centering. Your new treadmill comes preadjusted from the factory for tension and centering. Please follow the procedures below if the belt shifts to the left or right while walking:

WALKING BELT IS SHIFTING TO THE LEFT (Diagram 1)

First, turn treadmill on to run at 1 mph. Using the hex key provided, turn the left rear roller adjustment bolt ¼ turn in the clockwise direction.

Next, run the treadmill at 2.5 mph. You should see the belt start to correct itself by moving back towards the center. Repeat the above procedure until the walking belt is centered. It may be necessary to set walking belt tension once you have completed this procedure if the belt feels like it is slipping while walking. Refer below to the “Walking Belt Slipping” instructions.

WALKING BELT IS SHIFTING TO THE RIGHT (Diagram 2)

First, turn the treadmill on to run at 1 mph. Using the hex key provided, turn the right rear roller adjustment bolt ¼ turn in the clockwise direction. Next, run the treadmill at 2.5 mph. You should see the belt start to correct itself, moving back towards the center. Repeat the above procedure until the walking belt is centered. It may be necessary to set walking belt tension once you have completed this procedure if the belt feels like it is slipping while walking. Refer below to the “Walking Belt Slipping” instructions.

WALKING BELT IS SLIPPING DURING USE (Diagram 3)

First, unplug the power cord from the surge protector. Using the hex key provided, turn both left and right rear roller adjustment bolts the same distance, usually a ¼ turn in the clockwise direction. Plug the power cord back into the surge protector and run the treadmill at 2.5 mph. You should now walk on the belt to determine if the belt is still slipping. Repeat the above procedure until the walking belt is not slipping. The tension should be just tight enough not to slip.

 Turning the hex key counter clockwise brings the rear rollers and belt towards you.

 Turning the hex key clockwise pushes the rear roller and belt away form you.

Change Miles per hour to Kilometers per hour

Maintenance Instructions

WARNING! Before performing any maintenance to your treadmill, always unplug the power cord from the surge protector.

CLEANING

Routine cleaning of your Ironman Fitness treadmill will extend the life of your treadmill. WARNING!

To prevent electrical shock, be sure the power to the treadmill is OFF and the unit unplugged from the wall electrical outlet before attempting any cleaning or maintenance.

AFTER EACH WORKOUT: Wipe off the console and other treadmill surfaces with a clean, water dampened soft cloth to remove excess perspiration. USE NO CHEMICALS.

WEEKLY: Use of a treadmill mat is recommended for ease of cleaning. Dirt from your shoes contacts the belt and eventually makes it to underneath the treadmill. Vacuum underneath treadmill once a week.

DECK LUBRICATION

The walking belt has been pre-lubricated at the factory. However, it is recommended that the walking board be checked periodically for lubrication to ensure optimal treadmill performance.

Every 30 days or 30 hours of operation, lift the sides of the walking belt and feel the top surface of the walking board as far under as you can reach. If you feel signs of silicone, no further lubrication is required. If it feels dry to the touch, follow the instructions below.

Ironman recommends “Lube N Walk” for cleaning and lubricating the treadmill belt and deck. Ask your retailer or call Ironman at 800-340-0482. You may also use silicone such as “Napa 8300” (available at most stores).

TO APPLY LUBRICANT TO THE WALKING BOARD

1) Position the walking belt so that the seam is located on top and in the center of the center of the walking board.

2) Insert the spray nozzle into the spray head of the lubricant can.

3) While lifting the side of the walking belt, position the spray nozzle between the walking belt and the board approximately 6” from the front of the treadmill. Apply the silicone spray to the walking board, moving from the front of the treadmill to the rear. Repeat this on the other side of the belt. Spray approximately 4 seconds on each side.

4) Allow the silicone to ‘set’ for one minute before using the treadmill.

WARNING: Do not over-lubricate the walking board. Excess lubricant should be wiped off with a clean towel.
