How to Level the Lifestride Trainer
Grounding Instructions
The Lifestride
5500 must be leveled where it will be operated.
IT IS EXTREMELY
IMPORTANT
THAT THE TREADMILL BE
CORRECTLY LEVELED FOR PROPER OPERATION. AN
UNSTABLE UNIT MAY CAUSE STRIDING BELT MISALIGNMENT.
For safe operation, the Lifestride trainer must be properly grounded. If
the unit malfunctions or breaks down, proper grounding provides a path
of least resistance for an electrical current, which reduces the risk of
electrical shock to someone touching or using the unit. Each unit is
equipped with an electrical cord which includes an equipment grounding
conductor and a grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into an
appropriate outlet that is properly installed and grounded in accordance
with all local codes and ordinances.
The treadmill striding belt is properly centered at the factory; however,
the leveling legs may need to be readjusted at the location in which the
unit is placed.

A
temporary adapter, similar to the adapter above, may be used to
connect this plug to a 2-pole receptacle ifa properly grounded outlet is
not available (U.S. and Canada). THE
TEMPORARY ADAPTER
SHOULD BE USED ONLY UNTIL A PROPERLY GROUNDED
OUTLET CAN BE INSTALLED BY A QUALIFIED ELECTRICIAN.
DANGER: A risk of electrical shock may result from
improper connection of the equipment-grounding
conductor. Check with a qualified electrician if you are in
doubt as to proper grounding techniques. Do not modify the
plug provided with the product. If it does not fit your
electrical outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a qualified
electrician.

After placing the treadmill in its intended location for use, begin a
program, but DO NOT begin running. It is important to insure that the
striding belt remains centered during operation. If the belt drifts to the
