HOW TO USE THE UPPER BODY ARMS
As you walk on the treadmill, you can either hold the
handrails or use the upper body arms. When you are
not using the arms, always set them in the arm
housings at the base of the uprights (see the draw-
ing below). Be careful not to step on the arms.
To add upper-body exercise to your workouts, hold the
upper body arms and move them forward and back as
you walk. Do not move the arms too far to the side. To
vary the intensity of your upper-body exercise, adjust
the resistance of the arms by turning the resistance
knobs.
If you are using the upper body arms and you need
to set them aside for a moment, step onto the foot
grips and set the ends of the arms on the ends of
the crossbar as shown below. Allowing the arms to
come in contact with the console may affect the
operation of the treadmill. Never leave the arms on
the crossbar or the console when the arms are not
in use.
UPPER BODY ARM TROUBLESHOOTING
If the upper body arms do not slide easily, or if they
make a squeaking noise, apply the included lubricant
to the arms in the locations shown below. Slide the
arms up and down several times to spread the lubricant.
To prevent damage to the upper body arms if they are
moved too far sideways, the lower end of each arm
features a breakaway connector. If one of the arms
breaks away, simply press the lower end back onto
the ball joint (not shown).
