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.
When you are finished exercising, stop the
walking belt and remove the key.
Step onto the foot rails,
stop the walking belt,
and remove the key
from the console. Store
the key in a secure
place. After the key is
removed, the displays
will remain on for
about five minutes.
Note: Any time that the walking belt is stopped
and no console buttons are pressed for five min-
utes, the displays will automatically turn off in
order to conserve the batteries.
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
resistance of the upper body arms can be adjusted. To
increase the resistance, turn the resistance knobs clock-
wise; to decrease the resistance, turn the knobs coun-
terclockwise.
HOW TO CHANGE THE INCLINE OF THE TREADMILL
To vary the intensity of your exercise, the incline of the
treadmill can be changed using the foot incline knob on
the right foot rail. Before changing the incline, stop
the walking belt.
To decrease the incline, stand with your left foot
towards the front of the left foot rail. Using your right
foot, press down the foot incline knob until the desired
incline is reached. Note: It may be helpful to step off the
treadmill when pressing down on the incline knob to
decrease the incline.
To increase the incline, stand with your left foot
towards the back of the left foot rail, and press down
the foot incline knob until the desired incline is reached.
