Important Safety Information: When servicing or using any piece of fitness equipment, basic safety precautions must be followed. Be sure to familiarize yourself with all warnings and information contained in this manual prior to assembly or use.
A warning sign has been included with your treadmill. It is the responsibility of the owner to post this sign in a visible area near the machine.
Serial Number: Each TrueForm Runner is assigned a serial number when built. The serial number can be found inside on the front left section of the treadmill frame next to the battery. DANGER! Follow these precautions to reduce the risk of injury or electric shock: • Do not soak the treadmill surfaces with any liquid; use a sprayer or damp cloth.
• Do not place any open liquid containers on any part of the treadmill.
• Always keep the running surface clean and dry.
Safety Precautions: To protect your safety be sure to read and understand the following warnings. • Consult with a physician before beginning any exercise program, especially if any of the
following pertain to you: pregnancy, history of heart disease, high blood pressure,
diabetes, chronic respiratory disease, elevated cholesterol, smoke cigarettes, or
experience any other chronic disease or physical impairments.
• If at any time during exercise you experience dizziness, chest pains, nausea or any other
abnormal symptoms, immediately discontinue use and consult a physician before
continuing.
• Keep all loose clothing, shoelaces and towels away from the treadmill running surface
while in use.
• Always exercise care and use handrails when mounting or dismounting the
treadmill.
• Never enter or exit the treadmill while the running belt is moving.
• Assemble and operate the treadmill on a solid and level surface.
• As the treadmill is non-‐motorized, there is no emergency stop lanyard. The treadmill
will come to a stop on its own. A treadmill running belt might not stop immediately if
any object becomes caught in the belt or rollers.
• Never leave children unsupervised around a treadmill.
• The TrueForm Runner is built to handle runners weighing up to 750 pounds at speeds
between 0-‐4 MPH and 550 pounds at speeds up to 18 MPH.
• Wear proper athletic shoes, such as those with rubber or high-‐traction soles. Do not use
shoes with heels or leather soles.
• Allow several minutes to bring your heart rate into the training zone shown elsewhere
in this manual. Walk slowly after your workout to allow your body time to cool down
and your pulse rate to decrease.
Measuring Your Heart Rate: We recommend that you use a heart rate monitor to measure your pulse during workout. However, you may also measure your pulse manually by placing your fingers on the underside of your wrist or either side of your throat. While looking at the second hand on your watch, count how many heartbeats you feel within fifteen (15) seconds. Multiply this number by four to get your Beats Per Minute (BPM). Know Your Maximum Heart Rate: To approximate your maximum heart rate, the general formula is to subtract your age from 220. This formula is used by the American Heart Association and The American College of Sports Medicine. A stress test administered by your physician is the most accurate way to determine your true maximum heart rate. The American Heart Association recommends that you have a stress test done if you have any history of heart disease or if you are over the age of 40 and beginning an exercise program. During exercise it is recommended that you maintain your target zone and not exceed 85% of your maximum heart rate. Your target zone is an area between 60 and 75% of your maximum heart rate. Should you find your heart rate above the 75% level, you should decrease the intensity of your fitness program.

Attach the display to the handrails using the provided screws and allen wrench.
Power Requirements: The TrueForm is non-‐motorized and therefore does not require electricity from a wall outlet. The display utilizes a rechargeable battery to power the digital display.

To charge the battery follow instructions below: The battery is located just inside of the side rail on the right side, it is secured by Velcro.
To recharge the battery simply disconnect the battery from the digital display connector.

To bypass the battery and connect the TrueForm directly to a standard outlet attach the wall power adapter.
Removing the Handrails: If you need to relocate your TrueForm Runner or move it through a narrow doorway you will need to remove the handrails. Follow the step by step video instructions to safely remove your handrails online at www.TrueFormRunner.com or on YouTube -‐ TrueFormRunning. Where to Put Your TrueForm: Place your treadmill on a level hard surface. If placed on carpeting use a mat over a carpeted area to reduce wear on machine and carpet. Transporting Your TrueForm: CAUTION: THIS TREADMILL IS HEAVY AND COULD CAUSE INJURY IF LIFTED IMPROPERLY. Lifting bars are inserted into each bottom corner of the treadmill. Do not pull or lift on the side covers. If the treadmill must be disassembled, the handrail can be removed for easier transportation.
