HOW TO FOLD AND MOVE THE TREADMILL
HOW TO FOLD THE TREADMILL FOR STORAGE
Before folding the treadmill, unplug the power cord. Caution:
You must be able to safely lift 45 pounds (20 kg) in order
to raise, lower, or move the treadmill.
1. Hold the treadmill with your hands in the locations shown
at the right. To decrease the possibility of injury, 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. Raise the treadmill until the storage latch
closes over the catch. Make sure that the storage latch
is fully engaged over the catch.
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 USE THE HAND WEIGHTS
To exercise your upper body as you walk on the treadmill,
hold the 1-pound weights at your sides or press the weights
above your head. To increase the intensity of your exercise,
use the 2-pound or 3-pound weights. The hand weights can
be stored in the weight rack.
WARNING: Do not use the hand weights at speeds faster
than a walk. Using weights and not holding the handrails
may compromise your ability to maintain your balance.
Exercises using weights should be attempted only by
experienced users.
