8. Using a #2 Phillips screwdriver, remove the 4 indicated screws that
secure the Lower Side Rail. Remove it from the machine.
9. Make sure there is sufficient space to lower the walking deck.
Keep a minimum clearance behind the machine of 79" (2 m)
and 24" (0.6 m) on each side. This is the recommended safe
distance for access, movement and emergency dismounts
from the machine.
10. Make sure there is no object on or around the treadmill to spill or
cause blockage from the fully unfolded position.
11. Slightly push the walking deck forward toward the console, and then
push the Deck Release Handle until the locking tube releases and you
can pull the walking deck away from the console. Hold up the rear of the
walking deck, and move to the side of the machine.
Keep clear of the movement path of the walking deck.
12. The hydraulic lift is set up to drop gradually. Hold onto the walking
deck until approximately 2/3 of the movement down. Make sure that you
use proper lifting technique; bend your knees and keep your back straight.
Lower the weight with your legs. Be aware that the walking deck can pos-
sibly drop quickly in the last part of the movement.

(with arrows) from the Rear Roller.
Note: Be sure to record the number of turns of the Adjustment Bolt it
takes to remove it. This will assist with reassembly.
