Raising and Lowering the Deck

The treadmill’s deck can be folded up when not in use. To do so, make sure that the incline is set to 0%, then simply grab the deck and lift it until it snaps into place.

To lower the deck again, squeeze the release handle (A) and slowly lower it to the ground. Make sure the deck is completely lowered before using the treadmill.

NOTE: When raising and lowering the deck, take care not to get hands or skin caught in the treadmill’s pinch points (C).

POWER SWITCH

Located on the front panel at the base of the treadmill, the ON/OFF switch has two positions - "I" (one) for ON and "0" (zero) for OFF.

MOVING THE TREADMILL

Turn the treadmill off and disconnect its power cord, then raise its deck.

NOTE: If adjustments were made to the front levelers during setup, make sure to tighten the levelers snug against the base frame before moving.

The treadmill may now be moved on its front platform wheels by pushing and pulling on its handrails. Do not attempt to move the treadmill by pushing or pulling on the deck or deck support tubing.

IMMOBILIZING THE TREADMILL

When it is necessary to immobilize the treadmill, press and hold both the DOWN ARROW and the ENTER keys on the console.
