HOW TO CHANGE THE INCLINE OF THE TREADMILL

The incline of the treadmill can be changed by raising or lowering the back end. Before changing the in- cline, remove the key and unplug the power cord.

Hold the

rear roller

endcap with both hands. When the back end

of the treadmill is in the low- est posi-

tion, the incline is about 10%. Raise the back end until it clicks into position. (Note: It may be necessary to shake the treadmill lightly so that it clicks into position.) The in- cline will then be about 5%. Raise the back end again until it clicks into position. The incline will then be about 3%. To lower the back end, raise it past the highest po- sition and then lower it. CAUTION: Before exercising, push on the back of the treadmill to make sure that the incline legs are locked in position. Do not place objects under the treadmill to change the incline; change the incline only as described above.
