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 become permanently damaged. In addition, 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 possibility of injury, do not lift the frame by the plastic foot rails.

Bend your legs and keep your back straight; as you raise the frame, make sure to 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 is past the latch pin. Slowly release the latch knob. Make sure that the frame is held securely by the latch pin.

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.

HOW TO MOVE THE TREADMILL

Before moving the treadmill, convert the treadmill to the storage position as described above. Make sure that the frame is held securely by the latch pin.

1.Hold the frame and place one foot against a wheel.

2.Tilt the treadmill back until it will roll on the wheels. Carefully move the treadmill to the desired location. Never move the treadmill without tipping it back. To reduce the risk of in- jury, use extreme caution while moving the treadmill. Do not attempt to move the treadmill over an uneven surface.

3.Place one foot against a wheel, and carefully lower the tread- mill until it is resting in the storage position.
