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 you do not do this, you may damage the

treadmill when you fold it. Remove the key and unplug the

power cord. CAUTION: You must be able to safely lift 45 lbs.

(20 kg) to raise, lower, or move the treadmill.

1. Hold the metal frame firmly in the location shown by the

arrow at the right. CAUTION: To decrease the possibility

of injury, do not lift the treadmill by the plastic foot rails.

Make sure to bend your legs and keep your back straight

as you raise the frame. Raise the frame about halfway to the

vertical position.

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

treadmill firmly. Using your left hand, slide the cushion so

that it is aligned with the latch pin. Next, pull the latch knob to

the left and hold it. Then, slowly release the latch knob. Make

sure that the latch pin is fully inserted into the hole in

the center of the cushion. Slide the cushion down until

the latch pin touches the cushion.

To protect the floor or carpet from damage, place a mat

under the treadmill. Keep the treadmill out of direct sun-

light. Do not leave the treadmill in the storage position in

temperatures above 85° F (30° C).

HOW TO MOVE THE TREADMILL

Before moving the treadmill, convert the treadmill to the storage

position as described above. Make sure that the latch pin is

fully inserted into the hole in the center of the cushion.

1. Hold the upper ends of the handrails. Place one foot against

one of the wheels.

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

Carefully move the treadmill to the desired location. To re-

duce the risk of injury, use extreme caution while mov-

ing the treadmill. Do not move the treadmill over an un-

even surface.

3. Place one foot against one of the wheels, and carefully lower

the treadmill until it is resting in the storage position.
