Visit us at: www.evofitness.com 19 EVO1 MOTORIZED TREADMILL MAINTENANCE HOW TO MAINTAIN THE EVO1 TREADMILL: Proper maintenance is very important to ensure your treadmill is always in top working condition. Improper maintenance could cause damage or shorten the life of your treadmill and exceed the LIMITED WARRANTY coverage. • Important: Never use abrasives or solvents to clean the treadmill. To prevent damage to the computer, keep liquids away and keep it out of direct sunlight. • Inspect and tighten all parts of the treadmill regularly. Replace any worn parts immediately. BELT ADJUSTMENT: Belt adjustment and tension performs two functions: adjustment for tension and centering. The running belt has been adjusted properly at the factory. However transportation, uneven flooring or other unpredicted reasons could cause the belt to shift off center resulting in the belt rubbing with the plastic side rail or end caps and possibly causing damage. To adjust the belt back to it’s proper position please follow the directions below: • Walking belt has shifted to the left: First unplug the power cord from the surge protector. Using the hex key provided, turn the left rear roller adjustment bolt 1/4 turn in the clockwise direction. Plug the power cord back into the surge protector and 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 has shifted to the right: First unplug the power cord from the surge protector. Using the hex key provided, turn the right rear roller adjustment bolt 1/4 turn in the clockwise direction. Plug the power cord back into the surge protector and 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: First unplug the power cord from the surge protector. Using the hex key provided, turn both the left and right rear roller adjustment bolts the same distance, usually a 1/4 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. WARNING! Do not over tighten rollers! This will cause premature roller bearing failure! Right and left tension bolts are located at the rear of the treadmill. Visit us at: www.evofitness.com 20 EVO1 MOTORIZED TREADMILL MAINTENANCE CLEANING: Routine cleaning of your treadmill will extend the product's life. • Warning: To prevent electrical shock, be sure the power to the treadmill is OFF and the power cord is unplugged from the wall electrical outlet before attempting any cleaning or maintenance. • Important: Never use abrasives or solvents to clean the treadmill. To prevent damage to the computer, keep liquids away and keep it out of direct sunlight. • After each workout: Wipe off the console and other treadmill surfaces with a clean, water dampened soft cloth to remove excess perspiration. • 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. Your treadmill should not have to be lubricated usually within the first year or 500 hours of use. Call your local Smooth dealer for service or questions regarding EVO products. Every 3 months of operation lift the sides of the walking belt and feel the top surface of the walking board as far 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. Please use Lube 'N Walk (can be purchased from your dealer or call the number on the front of the manual), or a nonpetroleum based silicone such as "Napa 8300" (available at most stores). To apply lubricant to the walking belt: 1. Position the walking belt so that the seam is located on top and in 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 1 minute before using the treadmill. Spray lubricant from front to back.

Visit us at: www.evofitness.com 22 EVO1 MOTORIZED TREADMILL IMPORTANT STEPS Warning: Before using this product, please consult your personal physician for a complete physical examination. Frequent and strenuous exercise should be approved by your doctor first. If any discomfort should result from your use of this product, stop exercising and consult your doctor. Proper usage of this product is essential. Please read your manual carefully before exercising. Please keep all children away from the equipment during use and when equipment is unattended. Always wear appropriate clothing, including athletic shoes, when exercising. Do not wear loose clothing that could become caught during exercising. Make sure that all bolts and nuts are tightened when equipment is in use. Periodic maintenance is required on all exercise equipment to keep it in good condition. Before beginning: How you begin your exercise program depends on your physical condition. If you have been inactive for several years, or are severely overweight, you must start slowly and increase your time gradually, a few minutes per week. Initially you may be able to exercise only for a few minutes in your target zone. However, your aerobic fitness will improve over the next six to eight weeks. Don’t be discouraged if it takes longer. It’s important to work at your own pace. Ultimately, you’ll be able to exercise continuously for 30 minutes. And the better your aerobic fitness, the harder you will have to work to stay in your target zone. But remember these essentials: • Contact your physician before starting a workout or training program. Have your doctor review your training and diet programs to advise you of a workout routine you should adopt. • Begin your training program slowly with realistic goals that have been set by you and your doctor. • Supplement your program with some type of aerobic exercise such as walking, jogging, swimming, dancing and/or bicycling. Monitor your pulse frequently. If you do not have an electronic heart rate monitor, have your physician show you the proper way to manually check your pulse by using your wrist or neck. Establish your target heart rate based on your age and condition. • Drink plenty of fluids during the course of your routine. You must replace the water content lost from excessive exercising to avoid dehydration. Avoid drinking large amounts of cold liquids. Fluids should be at room temperature when consumed. Visit us at: www.evofitness.com 23 EVO1 MOTORIZED TREADMILL TARGET HEART RATE Finding your pulse: To make sure your heart is beating in its target zone, you’ll need to know how to monitor your heart rate. The easiest way is to feel the pulse in the carotid artery on either side of your neck, between the windpipe and the large neck muscles. Count the number of beats in ten seconds, and then multiply that number by six. This gives you the number of beats per minute. How fast should your heart beat during aerobic exercise? Fast enough to reach and stay in its “target zone,” a range of beats per minute that is largely determined by your age and physical condition. To determine your target zone, consult the chart we have provided. HEART RATE in beats per minute FIND YOUR TARGET HEART RATE 200 180 160 140 120 100 80 20 25 30 35 40 45 50 55 60 65 70 AGE IN YEARS ADVANCED: Sports, athletic conditioning or interval training FITNESS: Optimal training, aerobic or cardiovascular HEALTH: Beginner, low intensity with long duration produces fat burning Aerobic exercise: Is any sustained activity that sends oxygen to your muscles via your heart and lungs. It will improve the fitness of your lungs and heart: your body’s most important muscle. Aerobic fitness is promoted by any activity that uses your large muscle groups - arms, legs or buttocks, for example. Your heart beats quickly and you breathe deeply. An aerobic exercise should be part of your entire exercise routine. Visit us at: www.evofitness.com 24 EVO1 MOTORIZED TREADMILL MUSCLE CHART Targeted muscle groups: The exercise routine that is performed on this product will develop primarily lower body muscle groups. These muscle groups are shown in gray color on the chart below. Shoulder muscles A B Pectoral muscles Bicep muscle C D Abdominal muscles Forearm muscles E F Quadricep muscles Calf muscles G H Trapezius muscles Tricep muscles I J Back muscles Gluteal muscles K L Hamstring muscles Visit us at: www.evofitness.com 25 EVO1 MOTORIZED TREADMILL STRETCHING ROUTINE Warm up and cool down: A successful exercise program consists of a warm-up, aerobic exercise, and a cool-down. Do the entire program at least two and preferably three times a week, resting for a day between workouts. After several months, you can increase your workouts to four or five times per week. Warming up is an important part of your workout, and should begin every session. It prepares your body for more strenuous exercise by heating up and stretching out your muscles, increasing your circulation and pulse rate, and delivering more oxygen to your muscles. At the end of your workout, repeat these exercises to reduce sore muscle problems. We suggest the warm-up and cool-down exercises on the following pages: Toe Touch: Slowly bend forward from your waist, letting your back and shoulders relax as you stretch toward your toes. Reach down as far as you can and hold for 15 counts. Shoulder Lift: Lift your right shoulder up toward your ear for one count. Then lift your left shoulder up for one count as you lower your right shoulder. Head Roll: Rotate your head to the right for one count, feeling the stretch up the left side of your neck. Next, rotate your head back for one count, stretching your chin to the ceiling and letting your mouth open. Rotate your head to the left for one count, and finally, drop your head to your chest for one count.
