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) in order to raise, lower, or move the treadmill.
1. Hold the treadmill frame with your hands in the locations
shown at the right. CAUTION: To decrease the possibil-
ity 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 tread-
mill about halfway to the vertical position.
2. Move your right hand to the position shown and hold the
treadmill firmly. Hold the lock knob with your left hand and
pull it to the side. Raise the treadmill until the lock knob is
aligned with the catch. Slowly release the lock knob.
Make sure that the pin on the lock knob is inside of
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 MOVE THE TREADMILL
Before moving the treadmill, convert the treadmill to the stor-
age position as described above. Make sure that the pin
on the lock knob is inside of the catch.
1. Hold the handrails as shown and place one foot against
the hood only in the location shown. Do not hold or
push on the book holder or it may be damaged.
2. Tilt the treadmill back until it rolls freely on the front
wheels. Carefully move the treadmill to the desired loca-
tion. Never move the treadmill without tipping it back.
To reduce the risk of injury, use extreme caution
while moving the treadmill. Do not move the treadmill
over an uneven surface.
3. Place one foot on the base and carefully lower the tread-
mill until it is resting on the base.
