4. OPERATION INSTRUCTIONS
Do not attempt to move the unit unless it is in the folded and locked position. Be sure the power cord is secured to
avoid possible damage. Use both handrails to move the unit to the desired position.
4.1 TO FOLD THE TREADMILL
Make certain the treadmill is at minimum incline. Lift the treadmill
running deck until it is secured by the locking telescoping tube assembly
in center back of base.
4.2 TO UNFOLD THE TREADMILL
Apply slight forward pressure* on the treadmill running deck with one
hand. Pull down on the unlocking lever and slowly lower the running
deck to the floor. The deck will lower unassisted when it reaches about
waist high.
*At the rear roller area to relieve pressure on the locking system.
4.3 TRANSPORT
The treadmill is equipped with four transport wheels that are engaged
when the treadmill is folded. After folding simply roll the treadmill away.
4.4 HANDRAIL ADJUSTMENTS
The treadmill allows you to make speed and incline changes on the side handrails. You
can also choose to turn these off if you frequently hold on to these rails. This is
achieved by pressing the disable button on the right side of the lower portion of the
console.
4.5 QUICK SPEED & INCLINE BUTTONS
You are able to set your speed and incline settings quickly by using the quick keys on
the console. Just press either Speed or Incline, then select either 1 or 2 digits and the
treadmill will automatically adjust to that value. This saves time because you don’t have to press and hold or hold a
button down until reaching the desired value. The maximum value you may input for speed is 9.9 km/h and incline
9.5%.
Examples:
Press the Quick Incline button, then 1, 0 = Incline Level 1.0
Press the Quick Incline button, then 3, 5 = Incline Level 3.5
Press the Quick Speed button, then 8, 0 = 8.0 km/h
Press the Quick Speed button, then 0, 8 = 0.8 km/h
