HOW TO FOLD AND MOVE THE TREADMILL
HOW TO FOLD THE TREADMILL FOR STORAGE
Before folding the treadmill, remove the key and unplug
the power cord. CAUTION: You must be able to safely
lift 45 lbs. (20 kg) to raise, lower, or move the treadmill.
1.
Hold the metal frame firmly in the location shown by
the arrow at the right. CAUTION: To decrease the pos-
sibility of injury, do not lift the frame by the plastic
foot rails. Make sure to 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 position.
2. Move your right hand to the position shown and hold the
treadmill firmly. Using your left hand, pull the latch knob
to the left and hold it. Raise the frame until the latch plate
is past the latch pin. Then, slowly release the latch knob;
make sure that the latch plate is resting against the
latch pin.
To protect the floor or carpet from damage, place a
mat under the treadmill. Keep the treadmill out of di-
rect sunlight. Do not leave the treadmill in the stor-
age position in temperatures above 85° F (30° C).
HOW TO MOVE THE TREADMILL
Before moving the treadmill, convert the treadmill to the stor-
age position as described above.
Make sure that the latch
plate is resting against the latch pin.
1. Hold the handrails and place one foot against one of the
wheels.
Do not pull back on the frame.
2. Tilt the treadmill backward until it rolls freely on the wheels,
and carefully move the treadmill to the desired location.
Never move the treadmill without tipping it backward.
To reduce the risk of injury, use extreme caution
while moving the treadmill. Do not attempt to move
the treadmill over an uneven surface.
3. Place one foot against one of the wheels, and carefully
lower the treadmill until it is in the storage position.
