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-
come damaged. Remove the key and 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 treadmill with your hands in the locations shown

at the right.

CAUTION: 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 lock knob to
the left and hold it. Raise the treadmill until the lock pin is
aligned with the hole in the housing. Insert the lock pin
into the housing.

Make sure that the lock pin is fully in-

serted into the housing. Note: If the adjustment knob
(not shown) hits the upright, press on the knob.

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 stor-
age position as described above.

Make sure that the lock

pin is fully inserted into the housing.

1. Hold the handrails as shown and place one foot against a

wheel.

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

Carefully move the treadmill to the desired location.

Never

move the treadmill without tipping it back. To reduce
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 wheel, and carefully lower the treadmill

until it is resting in the storage position.
