6. From the Left Upright, disconnect the Remote Incline Control Cable.
Note: Do not crimp the Cables.
7. Using a 6mm hex wrench, remove the indicated hardware from the Left
Upright.
8. Fully remove the Console and Handlebar Assembly from the Uprights.
9. Make sure that there is safe clearance around, on and above the
treadmill. Make sure there is no object to spill or cause blockage from the
fully folded position.
Be sure there is adequate height clearance for the raised deck.
10. Using the support bar found below the rear of the walking belt, push
the Deck Release Handle and lift the walking deck fully upward and
engage the hydraulic lift. Be sure that the hydraulic lift is correctly locked
in place. You will hear an audible click when the hydraulic lift shifts into the
locked position.
Use proper safety precautions and lifting techniques. Bend
your knees and elbows, keep your back straight and pull up
equally with both arms. Make sure that your own physical
strength is capable of lifting the walking deck until it engages
the locking mechanism. Use a second person if necessary.
Do not use the walking belt or rear roller to lift the treadmill.
These parts do not lock in place and can abruptly move. Injury
to you or damage to the machine can occur.
11. Make sure that the locking mechanism is engaged. Carefully pull
back on the walking deck and make sure that it does not move. When
you do this, keep clear of movement path in case the treadmill lock is not
engaged.
Do not lean against the treadmill when it is folded. Do not put
items on it that could cause it to become unstable or fall.
12. Remove the Base Shrouds from the Base Assembly.
