HOW TO FOLD AND MOVE THE TREADMILL
HOW TO FOLD THE TREADMILL FOR STORAGE
Before folding the treadmill, adjust the incline to the
lowest position. If you do not do this, you may permanently
damage the treadmill. Next, unplug the power cord.
CAUTION: You must be able to safely lift 45 lbs. (20 kg) to
raise, lower, or move the treadmill.
1.
Hold the metal frame firmly in the location shown by the
arrow at the right. CAUTION: To decrease the possibility
of injury, do not lift the frame by the plastic foot rails.
Make sure you bend your legs and keep your back
straight. As you raise the frame, make sure to lift with
your legs rather than your back.
Raise the frame about
halfway to the vertical position.
2. Move your right hand to the position shown and hold the
treadmill firmly. Using your left hand, pull the latch knob to
the left and hold it. Raise the frame until the hole in the plat-
form cushion is aligned with the latch pin, and then slowly re-
lease the latch knob.
Make sure that the latch pin is fully
inserted into the center of the platform cushion.
To protect the floor or carpet from damage, place a mat
under the treadmill. Keep the treadmill out of direct sun-
light. Do not leave the treadmill in the storage position in
temperatures above 85° F (30° C).
HOW TO MOVE THE TREADMILL
Before moving the treadmill, convert it to the storage position as
described above.
Make sure that the latch pin is fully in-
serted into the center of the platform cushion.
1. Hold one of the handrails and place your other hand on the
frame. Place one foot against one of the wheels.
2. Tip the treadmill back until it rolls freely on the wheels.
Carefully move the treadmill to the desired location.
To re-
duce the risk of injury, use extreme caution while mov-
ing the treadmill. Do not move the treadmill over an un-
even surface. Do not pull back on the frame.
3. Place one foot against one of the wheels, and carefully lower
the treadmill until it is resting in the storage position.
