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-
m
anently damaged. Next, unplug the power cord. CAUTION:
You must be able to safely lift 20 kg (45 lbs.) 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 possibility
of injury, do not lift the frame by the plastic foot rails.
Make sure you bend your legs and keep your back
straight. As you raise the frame, 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 catch passes the
latch pin, and then slowly release the latch knob.
Make sure
that the catch is held securely by the latch pin, as
shown.
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 (30° Celsius).

-
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.
