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 be- come permanently damaged. Next, 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.
Make sure to bend your legs and keep your back straight. As you raise the frame, make sure to lift with your legs rather than with your back.
2.Raise the frame until the latch knob locks into the storage po- sition. Make sure that the latch knob is locked in the stor- age position.
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 latch knob is locked in the storage position.
1.Hold the handrails and place one foot against one of the wheels.
2.Tilt the treadmill backward until it rolls freely on the front wheels. Carefully move the treadmill to the desired location.
To reduce the risk of injury, use extreme caution while moving the treadmill. Do not 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.
