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. Next, unplug the power cord. Caution: You must be able to safely lift 45 pounds (20 kg) in order to raise, lower, or move the treadmill.

1. Hold the treadmill with your hands in the locations shown at the right. To decrease the possibility of injury, bend your legs and keep your back straight. As you raise the treadmill, make sure to lift with your legs rather than your back. Raise the treadmill halfway to the vertical

position.

2.Move your right hand to the position shown and hold the treadmill firmly. Hold the lock knob with your left hand and pull it to the side. Raise the treadmill until the lock knob is aligned with the slot in the catch. Slowly release the knob.

Make sure that the pin on the lock knob is inside the slot.

To protect the floor or carpet from damage, place a mat under the treadmill. Keep the treadmill out of direct 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 storage position as described above. Make sure that the storage latch is inserted into the slot in the side of the frame.

1.Hold the handrails as shown and place one foot near a wheel. Do not hold or push on the book holder or the book holder may be damaged.

2.Tilt the treadmill in the direction shown 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 and do not attempt to move the treadmill over an uneven surface. Tip the treadmill only onto the front wheels. Tipping the treadmill in the opposite direction could cause the treadmill deck to fall on you.

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