HOW TO FOLD AND MOVE THE TREADMILL
HOW TO FOLD THE TREADMILL FOR STORAGE
Before folding the treadmill, 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 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 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. Press out on the latch. Raise the tread-
mill 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 stor-
age position in temperatures above 85° Fahrenheit.

HOW TO USE THE UPPER BODY ARMS
As you exercise on the treadmill, you can hold either the
handrails or the upper body arms. The upper body arms are
designed to exercise your arms, shoulders, and back for a
total body workout. Hold one upper body arm with each
hand, and move them forward and back as you walk on the
treadmill.
To vary the intensity of your upper body exercise, the resis-
tance of the upper body arms can be adjusted. To increase
the resistance, turn the resistance knobs clockwise; to de-
crease the resistance, turn the knobs counterclockwise.
