20. Re-install all remaining parts that were removed in reverse order.
Note:
Make sure the treadmill is located on a surface that is easy to
clean.
21. Make sure that there is safe clearance around, on and above the
treadmill. Make sure there is no object to spill or cause blockage from the
fully folded position.
Be sure there is adequate height clearance for the raised
deck.
22. Using the support bar found below the rear of the walking belt, lift the
walking deck fully upward and engage the hydraulic lift. Be sure that the
hydraulic lift is correctly locked in place. You will hear an audible click
when the hydraulic lift shifts into the locked position.
Use proper safety precautions and lifting techniques. Bend
your knees and elbows, keep your back straight and pull up
equally with both arms. Straighten your legs to lift. Make sure
that your own physical strength is capable of lifting the
walking deck until it engages the locking mechanism. Use a
second person if necessary.
Do not use the walking belt or rear roller to lift the treadmill.
These parts do not lock in place and can abruptly move. Injury
to you or damage to the machine can occur.
23. Make sure that the locking mechanism is engaged. Carefully pull back
on the walking deck and make sure that it does not move. When you do
this, keep clear of movement path in case the treadmill lock is not properly
engaged.
Do not lean against the treadmill when it is folded. Do not put
items on it that could cause it to become unstable or fall.
24. Apply a few drops of lubricant to the inner surface of the belt for the
entire width of the belt. A very thin layer of silicone lubricant on the entire
deck below the belt is desired.
NOTICE:
Always use a 100% silicone lubricant. Do not use a
degreaser like WD-40

as this could seriously impact
performance. We can recommend that you use the

25. Manually rotate the belt 1/2 of the length of the belt and apply lubri-
cant again.
