HOW TO FOLD AND MOVE THE TREADMILL
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
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 with your hands in the locations shown
at the right. (CAUTION: 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. Hold the lock knob with your left hand and
pull it to the left. Raise the treadmill until the lock knob is
aligned with the slot in the catch. (Note: You may need to
push the handrail to the left slightly). Slowly release the
knob; make sure that the pin on the lock knob is in-
serted into the slot in 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 pin
on the lock knob is inserted into the slot in the catch.
1. Hold the handrails as shown and place one foot against a
wheel.
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. To reduce
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 wheel, and carefully lower the
treadmill until it is resting in the storage position.
