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. CAU-
TION: You must be able to safely lift 20 kg (45 lbs.) in order
to raise, lower, or move the treadmill.
1. Hold the treadmill with your hands in the locations shown.
CAUTION: To decrease the possibility of injury, bend
your legs and keep your back straight. As you raise the
treadmill, 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. Using your left hand, pull the latch knob to
the left and hold it. Raise the treadmill until the catch is past
the latch pin. Slowly release the latch knob. Make sure that
the catch is held securely by the latch pin.
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 30° C (85° F).
HOW TO MOVE THE TREADMILL
Before moving the treadmill, convert the treadmill to the stor-
age position as described above. Make sure that the catch is
held securely by the latch pin.
1. Hold the handrails and place one foot against a wheel.
2. Tilt the treadmill back until it rolls freely on the wheels.
Carefully move the treadmill to the desired location. Never
move the treadmill without tipping it back. To reduce the
risk of injury, use extreme caution whilst moving the
treadmill. Do not attempt to move the treadmill over an
uneven surface.
3. Place one foot on a wheel, and carefully lower the treadmill
until it is resting in the storage position.
HOW TO LOWER THE TREADMILL FOR USE
1. Refer to drawing 2 above. Hold the upper end of the treadmill with your right hand. Pull the latch knob to the
left and hold it. Pivot the treadmill down until the frame is past the pin. Slowly release the latch knob.
2. Refer to drawing 1 above. Hold the treadmill firmly with both hands, and slowly lower the treadmill to the floor.
CAUTION: To decrease the possibility of injury, bend your legs and keep your back straight.

3. With the help of a second person, carefully tip the
Uprights (64) back to the vertical position.
Attach the Latch Assembly (32) to the left Upright (64)
with two Extension Screws (35).
Note: There may already be two pieces of Foam Tape
(82) attached to each post. If there are not, peel the paper
off two of the included pieces of Foam Tape. Press the
Foam Tape onto the left post in the locations shown.
Press the other two pieces of Foam Tape onto the right
post in the same way.
4. Turn one of the Handrail Extensions (34) so that the two
larger holes are on the bottom as shown. Insert the
Handrail Extension as far as possible into the post on the
left Upright (64). If necessary, tap the Handrail Extension
with a rubber mallet to fully insert it. Next, attach the
Handrail Extension by tightening three Extension Screws
(35) into the indicated holes.
Identify the Left Foam Grip (31) (see the inset drawing).
Remove any remaining paper from the two indicated
pieces of Foam Tape (82). Apply a small amount of water
to the Foam Tape. Slide the Left Foam Grip as far as pos-
sible onto the post on the left Upright (64). (Note: It may
be helpful to lubricate the Handrail Extension [34]
with soapy water.) Press two Plastic Fasteners (9) into
the Foam Grip and the Handrail Extension. If necessary,
use a blunt object to press in the Fasteners.
Attach the other Handrail Extension (not shown) and the
Right Foam Grip (43) as described above. Note: Make
sure that the Extension Screws (35) are attached on the
outside of the post as shown.
5. Make sure that all parts are tightened before you use the treadmill. Keep the included allen wrench in a
secure place; the allen wrench is used to adjust the walking belt (see page 24). To protect the floor or carpet
from damage, place a mat under the treadmill.
