Basic assembly principles

assembly of your Nautilus® Sport Series treadmill
quick and easy.
1. you can make the assembly process go faster
by gathering the pieces you need for each step
prior to starting the step.
2. As a general rule, and for all fasteners on your
Nautilus® Sport Series treadmill, turning toward
the right will tighten, turning towards the left
will loosen. An easy way to remember this is
by remembering the expression, “lefty loosey,
righty tighty.”
3. the hex key and Phillips screwdriver tools
needed to assemble your Nautilus® Sport Series
treadmill are provided. During the assembly
process a 1/2 inch Socket with Ratchet will also
be required. this tool is not provided. you may
find the use of a utility knife or scissors beneficial
during the unpacking process.
4. it is recommended that you use two people to
assemble your Nautilus® Sport Series treadmill.
Select Your Workout area
Select where you are going to put your Nautilus®
Sport Series treadmill carefully. the best place for
your treadmill is on a hard, level surface. you will
need at least 20 inches (.5 meters) on each side of
the treadmill and 79 inches (2 meters) behind your
treadmill for dismount.
make sure that the location you choose has a
grounded, 3-prong power outlet within reach of
the treadmill power cord.
NOte: the Nautilus® Sport Series treadmill is
designed to plug into a grounded, non-gFi outlets
only. to determine if your outlet or circuit breaker
is gFi, look for a test and reset button on them.
if they have the test and reset button it is a gFi
outlet or circuit breaker.
Further, if you ever perform any repairs on your
treadmill that require you to lay it on its side, you
will need at least five feet to one side of your
workout area.
Machine Mat
the Nautilus® machine mat is an optional
accessory for the Nautilus® Sport Series treadmill
that helps keep your workout area free from debris
and dust. the rubber machine floor mat provides
a non-slip surface for you to use when mounting
and dismounting the treadmill and limits static
discharge when you touch the machine—greatly
reducing the possibility of display or running errors.
Further, a rubberized mat will protect your flooring
when you are performing repairs or maintenance
on the treadmill.
Put your Nautilus® machine mat in place in your
selected workout area before you start assembly
to protect your floors and your treadmill from
damage.
positioning Your Nautilus® Sport Series
Treadmill
take great care when moving your treadmill into
place prior to assembly.
there are two rear end caps on either side of the
walking belt for lifting of the base and two wheels
on either side of the front of the base beneath the
console. it is highly recommended that you do not
attempt to ever lift or move the treadmill without
help.
When you assemble the Nautilus® Sport Series
treadmill, you will need at least two people to set
the base in place, and lift the handlebar assembly.
