• The PaceMaster is packed in five pieces: the main unit, the handlebar, the siderails, the motor cover, and the hardware package which contains this manual. Once you have removed all of the pieces from the box, inspection of the treadmill should be made to check for any concealed damage that may have occurred during shipment. • Before assembling your treadmill, open the hardware package and verify that you have the following items.

4. As shown in Figure 4 put one of the black 4” carriage bolts #8 through the siderail #7, bracket #9 (make sure the foam on the back of bracket #9 is facing up) and through the frame. When the bolt is all the way through the frame install a 1” fender washer #10 and a kep nut #2. Use this procedure to install the other siderail and then tighten both siderails. 5. Standing in front of the treadmill (as shown in figure 5) pick up the motor cover so that it is level and the word PaceMaster is upside down.

1. After your treadmill is in place and plugged in to the wall outlet, attach the garment clip (located on the end of the cord opposite the safety magnetic key) to your clothing at waist level and insert the magnetic key in to the recess on the control panel. You will see "150" in the speed window and "Lb" flashing in the distance window of the display.

CONTROLS Although PaceMaster has many advanced features which allow the user complete versatility in meeting exercise needs, basic operation is extremely easy. Basic operation involves setting your TIME and SPEED goals, then pressing the START button. PaceMaster will gradually accelerate to your set speed, maintain that speed until the timer counts to zero, then gradually come to a complete stop.

been erased. Now enter your time, speed, and elevation just as you would in manual operation. Add a warm up and cool down if desired, and press START to begin exercising. Perform your exercise exactly the way you wish it to be memorized. As you are exercising, you will notice that each time you change speed or elevation the CUSTOM LEARN light flashes for a few seconds to confirm that the changes are being learned.

• How often should I exercise? Exercise 3 or 4 times per week to achieve and then maintain your desired fitness level. Exercising less than 3 or 4 times per week, decreases the benefits and slows progress. An every other day schedule works best. • Is there a limit to the benefits of exercising? That depends on the benefits you are aiming to achieve.
PAGE 11
5. During the workout the computer will notify you of any speed or elevation changes in the program by flashing the current speed and/or elevation a few times, then displaying the new speed or elevation. • At anytime during the workout you may increase or decrease your speed or elevation to meet your own fitness level, but at the next point in time when there is a speed or elevation change, the treadmill will go to its new values. You may choose to override these new values at any time.

Designing your own workout course allows you to tailor the workout to your specific fitness level, abilities, and goals. PaceMaster has the ability to remember four of your favorite exercise routines. One routine can be stored in each of the four custom memory positions. Be certain that the proper custom memory (1,2,3, or 4) has been selected. Realize that you will no longer be able to use the existing program in that memory position once a new one is memorized. 1. Stand on the center of the treadbelt.

To improve treadbelt life, the treadbelt should remain reasonably centered while in use. To center the treadbelt, first walk on the belt at 2.5 m.p.h. for a few minutes. Determine whether the belt drifts too far to the left or right side. If adjustment is required, stop the treadmill and follow the steps listed below. Never make any adjustments while the treadbelt is moving. CAUTION: The power must be turned off before making adjustments. Use a 3/16" allen wrench for the following adjustments 1.
PAGE 15
2. Turn both the left and right treadbelt adjustment screws 1/2 turn clockwise. 3. Walk on the treadmill to see if the adjustment you made decreased the slippage. 4. If a significant decrease in slippage was observed, go to step 2. If you tighten the treadbelt 1 1/2 turns per side and slippage is still present, do not continue to adjust the treadbelt tension. Contact your authorized PaceMaster dealer.
