Moving and Storing the Treadmill
Moving the treadmill requires two people.
1.
Set the treadmill to 3 to 5% incline.
2.
To avoid electrical shock, turn off the circuit breaker on the treadmill hood, then remove
the treadmill power cord from the power source before moving the treadmill.
WARNING
AS LONG AS THE TREADMILL IS PLUGGED INTO A POWERED OUTLET AND THE
TREADMILL CIRCUIT BREAKER IS ON, THE UNIT IS RECEIVING POWER, EVEN
IF THE CONTROLLER IS TURNED OFF.
3.
Together, lift the rear of the treadmill, then roll it to the new site using the wheels on
the front of the treadmill.
When storing for prolonged periods, cover the treadmill with a dust cover. Do not store
in damp areas. Do not store the treadmill on its end as it could fall on someone.
Using After Storage Period
Before using the treadmill again after moving or storage, check the power cord and all
attachments to be sure they are undamaged and securely connected, then test the system for
proper operation.
Troubleshooting
If there is a problem with the treadmill, cycle the power by turning the circuit breaker off and
then back on; this may eliminate the fault. If problems persist, refer to the Troubleshooting
Guide at the end of this chapter. Problems beyond the scope of this table may require service
assistance to isolate and correct. Contact StairMaster Technical Service at 800-331-3578.
