Unfolding the Machine
1. Make sure there is sufficient space to lower the walking deck.
Keep a minimum clearance behind the machine of 79” (2 m) and 24” (0.6 m) on each side. This is the
recommended safe distance for access, movement and emergency dismounts from the machine.
Place the machine on a clean, hard, level surface, free from unwanted material or other objects that may
hamper your ability to move freely with a sufficient clear workout area. A rubber mat below the machine is
recommended to prevent electrostatic discharge and protect your floor.
Be sure that the workout space you are utilizing has adequate height clearance, taking into consideration
the height of the user and the maximum incline of the deck.
2. Make sure there is no object on or around the treadmill to spill or cause blockage from the fully unfolded position.
3. Slightly push the walking deck forward toward the console. With your left foot lightly push the top part of the hydraulic
lift forward until the locking tube releases and you can pull the walking deck away from the console. Hold up the rear
of the walking deck, and move to the side of the machine.
Keep clear of the movement path of the walking deck.
4. The hydraulic lift is set up to drop lightly. Hold onto the walking deck until approximately 2/3 of the movement down.
Lower the weight with your legs. The walking deck can possibly drop quickly in the last part of the movement.
