Assembling the Treadmill | 25 |
Completing Assembly
After the upright supports and the fairing are in place, replace the hood on the treadmill base and finish securing the fasteners.
CAUTION: Be aware of the handrail extensions when you are working around the front of the unit. It is easy to bump your head or sustain other injuries if you ignore the location of the handrail extensions.
To secure the fasteners:
1.Using an alternating order, tighten the eight fasteners that secure the upright supports to the treadmill base.
2.Fully tighten the six screws that secure the console fairing to the upright supports.
To complete assembly of the treadmill base:
Important: Use your fingers to align and thread the four hood fasteners properly. Then use a wrench to tighten the hood fasteners completely as described in the following step.
1.Thread the four black buttonhead screws (with black washers) into their holes, leaving gaps of about ¹₄ inch between the heads of the screws and the surface of the treadmill frame.
2.Place the front of the hood on the two front screws. Make sure the screws are aligned with the notches in the hood and the washers are outside the hood.
3.Lower the back of the hood until the side screws rest inside the notches in the internal wall of the hood. Make sure the washers are outside the internal wall (on the same side as the screw heads).
4.Tighten all four screws securely, starting with the front screws.
