ADJUSTING THE INCLINE OF THE RAILS
8.
Stand next to the tower.
9.
Grasp the upper rail near the tower. Slightly lift the rails, then depress
the release handle on the top of the tower and raise the rails to a level
between 10 and 14.
NOTE:
By depressing the release handle and
continuing to lift the rails, you avoid a ratcheting sound when adjusting
incline. Incline scale is located on the side of the tower.
10.
NOTE:
When the folding foot holder is attached after assembly, grasp
the rails above the folding foot holder when lifting, to avoid pinch areas.
Do not hold rails below the folding foot holder attachment.
Push the rail down to insure it engages into the tower.

. Standing at the side of the unit,
with one hand behind the tower and
the other hand on the glideboard,
tilt the unit slightly backward and
use your foot to push the rail base
away from the tower. The tower will
follow the upper rails forward and
then it will begin to pull away from
the rails, backward to an upright
position.
CAUTION!
The tower is designed to open automatically by pulling away
from the upper rails as the rails begin to unfold. Do not force or push the
tower away from the rails, as this may cause the tower to fall backward.
7
. When the tower begins to pull away from the upper rails, grasp the
upper rail where indicated on the inside of the rail just above the hinge
(indicated on both sides) and continue to unfold the rails and lower them
to the floor. As the rails straighten, guide the glideboard rollers into the
groove of the upper rail if needed.
CAUTION!
As the rails get close to the floor, the rails feel heavier.
To avoid pinching the rollers in the hinges, do not drop the rails.
