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 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. Using your left hand, push the storage
latch to the left. Raise the treadmill until the storage latch
snaps into the catch. Make sure that the storage latch
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
storage position as described above. Make sure that the
storage latch is inside of the catch.
1. Hold the handrails and place one foot on the base.
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
moving the treadmill. Do not attempt to move the
treadmill over an uneven surface.
3. Place one foot on the base, and carefully lower the tread-
mill until it is resting in the storage position.

shown. Using your left hand, push the storage latch to the
left. Pivot the treadmill until the storage latch is past the
catch.
