Ground Instruction

4 Grounding Instructions TRACKMASTER® treadmills must be grounded to reduce the risk of electric shock. If a malfunction occurs, grounding provides a path of least resistance for an electric current. Ungrounded connections may cause electrical shock. This product is equipped with a three-wire grounding-type plug. The plug will fit into only a grounding-type outlet. This is a safety feature-do not disable the plug’s third (grounding) pin with an adapter! Contact a qualified electrician if you are either (1) unable to insert the plug into your outlet, or (2) uncertain that the outlet is grounded and meets local codes. The treadmill is designed to operate on a 200-240VAC/15-amp (13 amp-Europe) service. Make sure that the treadmill is connected to an outlet that looks like the following illustration. Never use an adapter or extension cord with this product. If you have any questions or experience any problems, contact your distributor.

Safe Handling Guidelines ƒ ƒ ƒ

Lift the end of the bed assembly to a comfortable height, keeping knees bent and back straight as you lift. Rotate the treadmill in the direction you want to go (the treadmill will pivot on it wheels) and push forward. When you have maneuvered the treadmill into its location gently lower the end of the bed assembly to the floor.

________________________________________________________________ CAUTION

If you are moving the treadmill over a rough surface, such as pavement, use a dolly under the front of the treadmill to prevent damage to the wheels. __________________________________________________________________________________________________

Location Place the treadmill on a level, stable surface-short-pile industrial carpeting is acceptable. ________________________________________________________________ CAUTION

Do not place the treadmill on thick or long-pile carpeting. Such carpeting could cause instability or static build-up, and carpet fibers could get caught in the belt and damage the unit. Provide adequate clearance around the treadmill, away from obtrusive objects. Obstructions can cause injury to the user or damage to the treadmill. Keep the treadmill away from sources of moisture, such as spas or fountains. Moisture can cause the electronic circuitry to malfunction. Use caution when locating treadmill where potential electromagnetic interference between the treadmill and other devices together. Devices should be carefully observed to ensure that EMI does not degrade performance. __________________________________________________________________________________________________

Assembly and Setup

Power Requirements Your TRACKMASTER® treadmill operates on a 200-240VAC, 15-amp (13 ampEurope) service. The treadmill requires an approved outlet (see Chapter 4, “Grounding Instructions”) that is properly grounded, includes a 15-amp (13 amp-Europe) circuit breaker. No other equipment may be used on the treadmill circuit. Do not use extension cords. Using an ungrounded, shared, or otherwise improper circuit will void the machine's warranty and may result in major damage to your treadmill's electronic circuits. Using a shared circuit can also cause the treadmill to unexpectedly shut off, resulting in injury to the user. Ensure that power cords do not cross traffic areas. Exposed power cords can cause a fall, resulting in injury. Before plugging the power cord into its power outlet, ensure that the treadmill master power switch is in the OFF position . A power surge through the treadmill electronics could trip the treadmill’s circuit breakers.

Final Setup Test Plug Procedure

Each TRACKMASTER® FVX328 treadmill includes an RS-232 plug that enables you to test the operation of the treadmill without the ECG unit attached. The plug is located to the right of the main power switch secured to the frame by Velcro. The plug is to be used only for testing the treadmill. Do not stand on or use the treadmill while testing.

Note: This procedure will not work with FVX328C or FVX328CP.
