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 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 treadmill 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 about halfway to the vertical position.
2.Hold the treadmill frame firmly with your left hand. Using your right hand, pull the latch knob to the right and hold it. Raise the treadmill until the pin on the latch knob is aligned with the hole in the left handgrip. Then, release the latch knob. Make sure that the latch knob is fully released so the pin is fully inserted into the hole in the left handgrip.
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 pin on the latch knob is fully inserted into the hole in the left handgrip.
1.Hold the handgrips and place one foot on the base.
2.Tilt the treadmill back until it rolls freely on the wheels. Carefully move the treadmill to the desired location. To re- duce the risk of injury, use extreme caution while moving the treadmill. Do not attempt to move the treadmill over an uneven surface.
3.Place one foot on the wheel, and carefully lower the treadmill until the base is resting in the storage position.
