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 tread-
mill, make sure to lift with your legs rather than your
back. Raise the treadmill about halfway to the vertical posi-
tion.

treadmill firmly. Press out on the storage latch. 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 storage
position in temperatures above 85° Fahrenheit.

Before moving the treadmill, convert the treadmill to the storage
position as described above. Make sure that the storage latch
is fully engaged over the catch.

base as shown.
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 on the base, and carefully lower the treadmill
until it is resting in the storage position.
