CHAPTER 4 Basic Machine Maintain
4.1LOCATION OF THE TREADMILL
Place the treadmill on a level and stable surface. There should be one
foot of clearance in front of the treadmill for the power cord. Please leave
a clear zone behind the treadmill that is at least the width of the treadmill
and at least 79” (2 meters) long. This zone must be clear of any obstruc-
tion and provide the user a clear exit path from the machine. In case of an
emergency, place both hands on the side arm rests to hold yourself up
and place your feet onto the side rails.
For ease of access, there should be an accessible space preferentially on
both sides of the treadmill equal to 2 ft (0.6 meters) to allow a user ac-
cess to the treadmill from either side.
Do not place the treadmill in any area that will block any vent or air open-
ings. The treadmill should not be located in a garage, covered patio, near
water or outdoors.
WARNING!
Our treadmills are heavy; use care and additional help if necessary when
moving. Do not attempt to move or transport treadmill unless it is in the
upright, folded position with the lock latch secured. Failure to follow these
instructions could result in injury.
4.2 FOLDING TREADMILLS
Some treadmills have a deck that can fold for storage and transport. To
fold, firmly grasp the back end of the treadmill. Carefully lift the end of the
treadmill deck into the upright position until the lock latch engages and
securely locks the deck into position. Make sure the deck is securely
latched before letting go.
UNFOLDING
Firmly grasp the back end of the treadmill. If your treadmill has a FOOT LOCK LATCH (A), to unfold,
gently press down on the foot lock latch with your foot until the lock latch disengages. If your treadmill has
a DECK LOCK LATCH (B), pull the deck lock latch to release the deck. Carefully lower the deck to the
ground.

To move, firmly grasp rear frame and
tilt the treadmill up (1) and roll (2).
MOVING: FOLDING 2 WHEELS
To move, make sure the treadmill is folded and secure-
ly latched. Then firmly grasp the handlebars, tilt the
