PROPER USAGE

Your treadmill is capable of reaching high speeds. Always start off using a slower speed and adjust the speed in 

small increments to reach a higher speed level. Never leave the treadmill unattended while it is running. When 

not in use, remove the safety key, turn the on/off switch to off and unplug the power cord. Make sure to follow 

the MAINTENANCE schedule located on page 34 in this manual. Keep your body and head facing forward. Do not 

attempt to turn around or look backwards while the treadmill is running. Stop your workout immediately if you 

feel pain, faint, dizzy or are short of breath.

Do not operate the treadmill if the power cord or plug is damaged.

If the treadmill appears to not be working properly, do not use the treadmill.

FOLDING

Firmly grasp the back end of the treadmill. Carefully 

lift the end of the treadmill deck into the upright 

position  until  the  foot  lock  latch  engages  and 

securely locks the deck into position. Make sure the 

deck is securely latched before letting go. To unfold, 

firmly grasp the back end of the treadmill. Gently 

press down on the foot lock latch with your foot until 

the lock latch disengages. Carefully lower the deck 

to the ground.

MOVING

Your  treadmill  has  a  pair  of  transport  wheels 

built  into  the  frame.  To  move,  make  sure  the 

treadmill is folded and securely latched. Then firmly 

grasp  the  handlebars,  tilt  the  treadmill  back  and 

roll.

  NOTE:  Do  not  attempt  to  disassemble  and   

transport treadmill.

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.
