HOW TO FOLD AND MOVE THE TREADMILL
HOW TO FOLD THE TREADMILL FOR STORAGE
Unplug the power cord. Caution: You must be able to
safely lift 45 pounds in order to raise, lower, or move the
treadmill.
1. Hold the treadmill with your hands in the locations shown
at the right. Caution: To decrease the possibility of in-
jury, 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 storage latch. Raise the
treadmill until the storage latch closes over the catch.
Make sure that the storage latch is closed fully 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 MOVE THE TREADMILL
Before moving the treadmill, convert the treadmill to the stor-
age position as described above. Make sure that the stor-
age latch is closed fully over the catch.
1. Hold the handrails and place one foot on the base as
shown.
2. Tilt the treadmill back until it rolls freely on the front wheels.
Carefully move the treadmill to the desired location. Never
move the treadmill without tipping it back, or the base
pads may come off. To reduce the risk of injury, use
extreme caution while moving the treadmill. Do not at-
tempt 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.
