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 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 with your hands in the locations shown by the arrow at the right. To decrease the possibility of injury, 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 po-

sition.

2.Move your right hand to the position shown and hold the treadmill firmly. Using your left thumb, press the storage latch to the left. Raise the frame until the storage latch closes over the catch. Make sure that the storage latch is fully en- gaged over the catch.

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 se- curely held by the storage latch.

1.Hold the upper ends of the handrails. Place one foot against one of the wheels.

2.Tilt the treadmill back until it rolls freely on the front wheels. Carefully move the treadmill to the desired location. To re- duce the risk of injury, use extreme caution while mov- ing the treadmill. Do not move the treadmill over an un- even surface.

3.Place one foot against one of the wheels, and carefully lower the treadmill until it is resting in the storage position.
