Obtaining Service
You should not attempt to service the treadmill except for maintenance tasks
as described in the Product Owner’s Manual. If any items are missing,
contact your dealer. Should you need more information regarding customer
support numbers or a list of Precor authorized service centers, visit the
Precor web site at www.precor.com/corp/contact.
Unpacking the Equipment
The unit is shipped in two boxes. Ask for help from two or more people to
unpack and assemble the treadmill.
Required Tools
• Crescent wrench
• Wire tie cutter
Cardio Theater PVS
Assembly Instructions
If the Cardio Theater Personal Viewing System (PVS) accompanies this Precor
unit, review the PVS assembly instructions found in the Cardio Theater box.
Alleviate additional assembly or disassembly steps by combining the two
assemblies as needed.
Installation Requirements
Follow these installation requirements when assembling the unit:
• Assemble the unit near the location where you plan to use it.
• Provide ample space around the unit.
The minimum space requirement needed for user safety and proper
maintenance is three feet wide by six feet deep (one meter wide by two
meters deep), directly behind the running belt.
• Set up the unit on a solid, flat surface.
A smooth, flat surface under the unit helps keep it level. A level unit has
fewer malfunctions.
• Open the box and assemble the components in the sequence
presented in this guide.
• Insert all fasteners with your fingers.
Use your fingers to properly align and thread the fasteners. This helps
alleviate cross-threading. Do not fully wrench tighten fasteners until
instructed to do so.
Important: When wrench tightening, the head of the fastener should be
flush with the product. If it is not, cross-threading has occurred. Do not
attempt to rework the assembly as more damage to the equipment will
occur. Contact Customer Support. Refer to Obtaining Service.
