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
rails and set the ends of the arms on the upper
body arm holders as shown below. Never leave the
arms on the console when the arms are not in use;
allowing the arms to come in contact with the con-
sole may affect the operation of the treadmill.
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).
