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 you do not do this, the treadmill may be- come permanently damaged. Remove the key and 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 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. To raise the frame, bend your legs and lift with your legs; make sure to keep your back straight. Raise the frame about halfway to the vertical position.

2.Raise the frame until the latch knob locks into the storage position. Make sure that the latch knob is locked in the storage position.

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° Fahrenheit.

HOW TO MOVE THE TREADMILL

Before moving the treadmill, convert the treadmill to the stor- age position as described above. Make sure that the frame is held securely by the pin on the latch knob.

1.Hold 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. Never move the treadmill without tipping it back. 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 resting in the storage position.
