HOW TO FOLD AND MOVE THE TREADMILL
HOW TO FOLD THE TREADMILL FOR STORAGE
Before folding the treadmill, adjust the incline to the
lowest position. If this is not done, the treadmill may be per-
manently damaged. Next, unplug the power cord. CAUTION:
You must be able to safely lift 45 pounds (20 kg) to raise,
lower, or move the treadmill.
1. Hold the frame with your hands in the locations shown by the
arrow at the right.
To decrease the possibility of injury,
bend your legs and keep your back straight. As you raise
the frame, make sure to lift with your legs rather than
your back.
Raise the frame about halfway to the vertical po-
sition.
2. Move your right hand to the position shown and hold the
treadmill firmly. Using your left thumb, press the storage latch
to the left. Raise the frame until the storage latch closes over
the catch.
Make sure that the frame is securely held by
the storage latch.
To protect the floor or carpet from damage, place a mat
under the treadmill. Keep the treadmill out of direct sun-
light. Do not leave the treadmill in the storage position in
temperatures above 85° Fahrenheit.
HOW TO MOVE THE TREADMILL
Before moving the treadmill, convert the treadmill to the storage
position as described on page 16.
Make sure that the frame is
securely held by the storage latch.
1. Hold the upper ends of the handrails, and place one foot
against one of the wheels.
2. Tilt the treadmill back until it rolls freely on the wheels.
Carefully move the treadmill to the desired location.
To re-
duce the risk of injury, use extreme caution while mov-
ing the treadmill. Do not move the treadmill over an un-
even surface.
3. Place one foot against one of the wheels, and carefully lower
the treadmill until it is resting in the storage position.
