HOW TO FOLD AND MOVE THE TREADMILL
H
OW 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 pos-
sibility of injury, do not lift the frame by the plastic foot
rails. To raise the frame, bend your legs, keep your
back straight, and lift with your legs. Raise the frame
about halfway to the vertical position.
2. Raise the frame until the latch knob locks into the storage
position. Make sure that the latch knob is locked in
the storage position.
To protect the floor or carpet from damage, place a
mat under the treadmill. Keep the treadmill out of di-
rect sunlight. Do not leave the treadmill in the stor-
age position in temperatures above 85° F (30° C).
HOW TO MOVE THE TREADMILL
Before moving the treadmill, convert the treadmill to the stor-
age position as described above. Make sure that the latch
knob is locked in the storage position.
1. Hold the handrails and place one foot against one of the
wheels.
2. Tip the treadmill back until it rolls freely on the 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 against one of the wheels, and carefully
lower the treadmill until it is resting in the storage position.
HOW TO LOWER THE TREADMILL FOR USE
1. See drawing 2. Hold the upper end of the treadmill with your right hand. Pull the latch knob to the left and hold
it. Pivot the frame downward and release the latch knob. Note: It may be necessary to push the frame forward
as you pull the latch knob to the left.
2. See drawing 1. Hold the metal frame firmly with both hands, and lower it to the floor. CAUTION: To de-
crease the possibility of injury, do not lower the frame by gripping only the plastic foot rails. Do not
drop the frame to the floor. Make sure to bend your legs and keep your back straight.
