CAUTION ! There are several areas during the assembly process of a Horizon
Fitness treadmill that special attention must be paid. It is very important to follow the
assembly instructions correctly and to make sure all parts are firmly tightened. If the assem-
bly instructions are not followed correctly, the treadmill could have frame parts that are not
tightened and will seem loose and may cause irritating noises. There should be no side-to-
side play in the console masts or any forward and back play in the console assembly or han-
dlebars. If there is any play in these areas, the treadmill has not been properly assembled.
To prevent damage to the treadmill, the assembly instructions must be reviewed and cor-
rective actions should be taken.
ASSEMBLY
CAUTION:
BEFORE BEGINNING ANY EXERCISE PROGRAM, ALWAYS CONSULT
YOUR PHYSICIAN. IF YOU EXPERIENCE CHEST PAINS, NAUSEA, DIZZINESS OR
