HOW TO FOLD AND MOVE THE TREADMILL

HOW TO FOLD THE TREADMILL FOR STORAGE

Before folding the treadmill, adjust the incline to the
lowest position. If this is not done, the treadmill may be
permanently damaged. Next, unplug the power cord.
CAUTION: You must be able to safely lift 45 pounds (20
kg) to raise, lower, or move the treadmill.

1. Hold the end of the treadmill near the location indicated by

the arrow at the right.

To decrease the possibility of in-

jury, bend your legs and keep your back straight. As
you raise the treadmill, make sure to lift with your legs
rather than your back.
Raise the treadmill about halfway
to the vertical position.

2. Move your right hand to the position shown and hold the

treadmill firmly. Using your left hand, pull the latch knob
to the left and hold it. Raise the treadmill until the catch is
aligned with the latch pin. Slowly release the latch knob.
Make sure that the catch is securely held by the latch
pin.

To protect the floor or carpet from damage, place a
mat under the treadmill. Keep the treadmill out of
direct sunlight. Do not leave the treadmill in the stor-
age position in temperatures above 85° Fahrenheit.

HOW TO MOVE THE TREADMILL

Before moving the treadmill, convert the treadmill to the
storage position as described above.

Make sure that the

pin on the latch knob is fully inserted into the hole in the
left handgrip.

1. Hold the treadmill and place one foot on one of the wheels.

2. Tilt the treadmill back until it rolls freely on the wheels.

Carefully move the treadmill to the desired location.

To re-

duce the risk of injury, use extreme caution while
moving the treadmill. Do not attempt to move the
treadmill over an uneven surface.

3. Place one foot on the wheel, and carefully lower the

treadmill until the base is resting in the storage position.
