VIPER M2
3. IMPORTANT OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
• Understand that changes in speed and incline do not occur immediately. Set your desired speed on
the display console and release the adjustment key. The display will obey the command gradually.
• Use caution while participating in other activities while walking on your treadmill, such as watching
television, reading, etc. These distractions may cause you to lose balance or stray from walking in
the centre of the belt; which may result in serious injury.
• In order to prevent losing balance and suffering unexpected injury, never mount or dismount the
treadmill while the belt is moving. This unit starts with at a very low speed. Simply standing on the
belt during slow acceleration is proper after you have learned to operate this machine.
• Always hold on to handrail while making control changes.
• A safety key is provided with this machine. Remove the safety key will stop the walking belt
immediately; the treadmill will shut off automatically. Inserting the safety key will reset the display.
• Do not use excessive pressure on console control keys. They are precision set to function properly
with little finger pressure.
• Replace any defective components immediately. The machine must be kept out of use until
repaired.
• Belt wear-in period: all treadmills make a certain type of thumping noise due to the belt
riding over the rollers, especially new treadmills. This noise will diminish over time, although
may not completely go away. The belt will stretch over time, causing it to ride smoother
over the rollers.

7. EXERCISE GUIDE
PLEASE NOTE: Before beginning any exercise program, consult your physician. This is important
especially if you are over the age of 45 or individuals with pre-existing health problems.
The pulse sensors are not medical devices. Various factors, including the user’s movement, may affect
the accuracy of heart rate readings. The pulse sensors are intended only as an exercise aid in
determining heart rate trends in general.
Exercising is great way to control your weight, improving your fitness and reduce the effect of aging and stress.
The key to success is to make exercise a regular and enjoyable part of your everyday life.
The condition of your heart and lungs and how efficient they are in delivering oxygen via your blood to your
muscles is an important factor to your fitness. Your muscles use this oxygen to provide enough energy for daily
activity. This is called aerobic activity. When you are fit, your heart will not have to work so hard. It will pump a lot
fewer times per minute, reducing the wear and tear of your heart.
So as you can see, the fitter you are, the healthier and greater you will feel.
Warm-up
Start each workout with 5 to 10 minutes of stretching and some light exercises. A proper warm-up increases
your body temperature, heart rate and circulation in preparation for exercise. Ease into your exercise.
22
VIPER M2
Training Zone Exercise
After warming up, increase the intensity to your desired exercise program. Be sure to maintain your intensity for
maximum performance. Breathe regularly and deeply as you exercise.
Cool Down
Finish each workout with a light jog or walk for at least 1 minute. Then complete 5 to 10 minutes of stretching to
cool down. This will increase the flexibility of your muscles and will help prevent post-exercise problems.
Workout Guidelines
TARGET ZONE
This is how your pulse should behave during general fitness exercise. Remember to warm up
and cool down for a few minutes.
The most important factor here is the amount of effort you put in. The harder and longer you work, the more
calories you will burn.

8. MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS
Reasonable cleaning/lubricating should be made to extend the life time of this unit. Performance is maximized
when the belt and mat are kept as clean as possible.
WARNING: THE MAT/DECK FRICTION MAY PLAY A MAJOR ROLE IN THE FUNCTION AND LIFE OF
YOUR TREADMILL AND THAT IS WHY WE RECOMMEND YOU CONSTANTLY LUBRICATE THIS
FRICTION POINT TO PROLONG THE USEFUL LIFE OF YOUR TREADMILL. FAILING TO DO THIS MAY
VOID YOUR WARRANTY.
WARNING: UNPLUG POWER CORD BEFORE MAINTENANCE
WARNING: STOP TREADMILL BEFORE FOLDING
1. General Cleaning
• Use a soft, damp cloth to wipe the edge of the belt and the area between the belt edge and frame. A mild
soap and water solution along with a nylon scrub brush will clean the top of the textured belt. This task
should be done once a month. Allow to dry before using.
• On a monthly basis, vacuum underneath your treadmill to prevent dust build up. Once a year, you should
remove the black motor shield and vacuum out dirt that may accumulate.
2. General Care
• Check parts for wear before use.
• Pay particular attention to the fixing knobs and make sure they are tight.
• Always replace the mat if worn and any other defective parts.
• If in doubt do not use the treadmill and contact us.
TAKE CARE TO PROTECT CARPETS AND FLOOR in case of leakages. This product is a machine that contains
moving parts which have been greased / lubricated and could leak.
24
VIPER M2
3. Belt/Deck/Roller Lubrication
The mat/deck friction may play a major role in the function and life of your treadmill and that is why we
recommend you constantly lubricate this friction point to prolong the useful life of your treadmill. You should
apply lubrication after approximately the first 30 hours of operation. We recommend lubrication of the deck
according to the following timetable:
o Light use (less than 3 hours per week) every 6 months
o Medium use (3-5 hours a week) every 3 months
o Heavy use (more than 5 hours per week) every 6-8 weeks
See below procedures for lubricating:
1. Use a soft, dry cloth to wipe the area between the belt and deck.
2. Spread lubricant onto the inside surface of belt and deck evenly (make sure the machine is turned off
and power is disconnected).
3. Periodically lubricate the front and rear rollers to keep them at their peak performance. If the treadmill
belt/deck/roller is kept reasonably clean it is possible to expect over 1200 hours before relubricating is
necessary.

VIPER M2
4. How to check the running mat for proper lubrication:
1. Disconnect the main power supply.
2. Fold the treadmill up into the storage position.
3. Feel the underside surface of the running mat.
If the surface is slick when touched, then no further lubrication is needed.
If the surface is dry to the touch, apply a suitable silicone lubricant.
We recommend that you use a silicone based spray to lubricate your treadmill. This can be purchased
directly from us or any hardware store.

5. Adjusting the Running Belt
A
B
C
Place treadmill on a level surface. Run treadmill
at approximately 4km/h, checking the running
condition.
If the belt has drifted to the right:
Whilst the treadmill is running at 4km/h,
carefully turn the right adjusting bolt 1/4 turn
clockwise. Then monitor treadmill until the belt
centers. Repeat until the belt correctly centers.
See Picture A
If you have over adjusted the belt and it drifts to
the right, carefully turn the right adjusting bolt
anticlockwise until the belt centers.
If the belt has drifted to the left:
Whilst the treadmill is running at 4km/h,
carefully turn the left adjusting bolt 1/4 turn
clockwise. Then monitor treadmill until the belt
centers. Repeat until the belt correctly centers.
See Picture B
If you have over adjusted it, carefully turn the
left adjusting bolt anticlockwise and until the
belt centers.
To adjust the tightness of the belt:
Turn the treadmill off. Turn both the left and right
adjusting bolts 1/4 turn clockwise. Repeat until
the belt correctly tightens.
See Picture C
If the belt is over tightened, simply do the
opposite to loosen.
27
VIPER M2
NOTE: When properly tightened, you should be able to peel the very edge of the side of the belt up approximately
2 inches. However this is a rough reference and not all treadmills are the same. Some treadmills that have longer
belts may give different measurements for correct belt tightness.
Simply, if the belt begins to slip during use, this is an indication that the belt still needs tightening.

6. Replacing Motor Brushes
After extended use, the motor brushes in your treadmill motor will wear down, and this can lead to motor failure.
It is important that you maintain your motor by replacing the brushes on either side of the motor when they are
worn down. We recommend that you check your motor every 1000 hours of usage.
IMPORTANT: Before beginning the replacement of your motor brush, ensure that the treadmill is off and
unplugged from the electrical socket.
1. Remove the cover from the motor by squeezing it
from the sides.
2. You’ll find the motor brush held in with a clip, with
the lead plugged in.
3. Pull the clip out from its position.
4a. Hold the clip out of the way with a screwdriver or
similar object. Keep the screwdriver in this position
until step 9.
29
VIPER M2
4b. Some treadmill motors may use a push clip
instead. In this case, gently push the clip inwards
and then up to release it from its latch.
4c. Remove the clip, noting the direction in which it
was originally placed, and put it safely aside.
5. Slide the motor brush out from its slot. If the brush
is shorter than 2cm on the longest side, you will need
to replace both brushes.
6. Slide the motor brush lead off the terminal using a
another small screwdriver or needle-nosed pliers.
7. Plug the new motor brush lead into the terminal.
8. Slide the new motor brush into the slot.
30
VIPER M2
9a. Release the clip back into its position.
9b. If your motor uses a push clip, replace the push
clip by pushing it inwards and then down so that it
engages the catch.
10. Check that the motor brush is held firmly in place
by the clip, and that the lead is plugged securely onto
the terminal.
11. Replace the motor cover. Repeat steps 1-15 for
the second brush located on the opposing side of the
motor.
12. You have now successfully replaced the motor brushes. We also recommend that you remove any dirt and
dust from your treadmill motor fan using a vacuum cleaner before replacing the cover.

11. TROUBLE SHOOTING GUIDE
Error/Code
Description
Possible Solutions
Computer not
functioning after
connecting power
a. Please check if the overload protect jump, if it has, please press
it, let it continue operation.
b. Ensure the wires of the power switch, overload protection,
control board and the transformer are connected correctly.
c. Ensure the wire from the computer to the control board is
connected properly. Remove the upright tube and check the
connection between each wire. Ensure each wire is completely
plugged in; if wires are damaged please change the wire.
d. Check the state of the transformer is good, if broken, change it.
E1
Message failure
1. The wires from computer and bottom control board are not
properly connected, please check each wire. If the wire was
destroyed replace it.
2. Check the state of the transformer is good, if broken, change it.
E2
No sensor signal
1. The speed sensor signal was not detected within 5-8 seconds.
Check the sensor plug connection
2. See if the magnetic speed sensor is broken or damaged, re-
connect the plug well or change the sensor.
E3
Overload protection
1. Upon overload, the system will restart to prevent damage. If the
treadmill gets stuck and the motor cannot move it will lead to an
overload. Please locate the cause of this. A possible reason is a
lack of lubricant in a particular component. Then restart the
machine.
2. Check if the motor sounds like its being over worked or for a
burning smell. If so, change motor
3. Check control board. If control board is emitting a burning smell,
change it.
E4
Incline sensor error
1. Check connection of incline motor wires
2. Check to see if AC wire of incline motor is properly connected,
and if the AC wire of the motor is inserted properly with correct
sign on control board.
3. Check connection line of incline motor to see if it is destroyed,
exchange it or incline motor. Press “learning” button of bottom
control board to relearn upon completion of checks.
E6
Burst clash
1. Ensure power is correct, if not, use correct power to test.
2. Check if the bottom control boards is burnt out, if burnt out
replace it and then reconnect the motor wire.
E07
Control board error
1. Check and replace controller
E08
Control board error
1. Check and replace controller
Motor not functioning
after pressing START
button

Hand Pulse Technology
Our products come equipped with hand pulse sensors which are used to pick up tiny EKG/ECG signals that run
through the body when your heart beats. These electrical EKG/ECG signals are very small and that they must be
amplified 1000 times to make the signal useful for the display to display your pulse.
To ensure proper operation:
- The user must maintain good, consistent contact on all four sensors
- The users skin cannot be too dry or too wet
Other factors that could affect the reading:
- Change of grip on the sensors (during slow pace walking and up to running)
- Tightening of hand muscles will produce small electrical signals
- Static electricity charges from the air or from walking on the treadmill
EKG/ECG Sensors may filter through actual EKG/ECG signals and “Noise” factors that may affect the reading. This will
cause the pulse reading to be delayed and will take longer to update the display as the heart rate changes. Too much
noise will create an incorrect reading. Medical conditions or having no electrical signal in the hands are other factors
that may affect pulse readings as well.
These are limitations of hand pulse technology and even the most expensive systems (which can cost upwards of
$3,000) used in hospitals have the same problems. The difference is that a patient in a hospital is not running on a
treadmill. Hand pulse technology works well on stationary exercise machines like bikes and even elliptical cross
trainers but are not perfect on a treadmill. We offer treadmills with a wireless heart rate receiver which may be a
more accurate option.
To test if your hand pulse sensors are working up to specification, hold them while standing on the side step rails,
not walking, and see if the reading is more in line with what you would expect. This will eliminate the movement and
static electricity factors. If your hands are dry, then wet them slightly (saliva works as a great conductor if this
doesn’t bother you).
