ASSEMBLY

IMPORTANT:  READ THESE SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USE!

During the assembly process of the treadmill there are several areas that special attention must be paid. 

It  is  very  important  to  follow  the  assembly  instructions  correctly  and  to  make  sure  all  parts  are  firmly 

tightened.  If the assembly instructions are not followed correctly, the treadmill could have frame parts that 

are not tightened and will seem loose and may cause irritating noises. There should be no side-to-side play 

in the console masts or any forward and back play in the console assembly or handlebars. If there is any 

play in these areas, the treadmill has not been properly assembled. To prevent damage to the treadmill, the 

assembly instructions must be reviewed and corrective actions should be taken.

UNPACKING

Place the treadmill carton on a level flat surface. It is recommended that you place a protective covering on 

your floor. Take CAUTION when handling and transporting this unit. Never open box when it is on its side. 

Once the banding straps have been removed, do not lift or transport this unit unless it is fully assembled 

and in the upright folded position, with the lock latch secure. Unpack the unit where it will be used. Never 

grab hold of any portion of the incline frame and attempt to lift or move the treadmill. FAILURE TO FOLLOW 

THESE INSTRUCTIONS COULD RESULT IN INJURY! 

Before proceeding, find your treadmill’s serial number 

and model name located under the deck on the frame 

crossbar and enter it in the space provided below.
