To avoid damaging the treadmill, adjust the incline to the lowest position before you fold the treadmill. Then, remove the key and unplug the power cord.
It may be helpful to adjust the platform cushions to their highest or lowest settings (see page 24 to adjust the platform cushions). 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 below. CAUTION: Do not hold the frame by the plastic foot rails. Make sure to bend your legs and keep your back straight.
