14. Gently pull the old Lower I/O Cable toward the MCB, routing the new Lower I/O Cable
through the Frame Assembly.
Note: Be sure that the cables do not pinch or cut when being routed.
15. Disconnect the old Lower I/O Cable, and dispose of it appropriately.
16. Connect the new Lower I/O Cable to the MCB, and the Grounding Cable to the Frame
Assembly.
17. Re-install all remaining parts that were removed in reverse order. Be sure the Cables are
safely tucked into the Right Upright.
18. Safely tilt the right side of the machine up, remove the incompressible block or book from
under the Base Assembly, and safely lower the machine.
19. Make sure there is sufficient space to lower the walking deck.
Keep a minimum clearance behind the machine of 79" (2 m) and 19.7" (0.5 m) on
each side. This is the recommended safe distance for access, movement and
emergency dismounts from the machine.
20. Make sure there is no object on or around the treadmill to spill or cause blockage from the
fully unfolded position.
21. Slightly push the walking deck forward toward the console. With your foot
lightly push the top part of the hydraulic lift forward 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.
22. The hydraulic lift is set up to drop gradually. Hold onto the walking deck
until approximately 2/3 of the movement down. Lower the weight with your legs.
Be aware that the walking deck can possibly drop quickly in the last part of the
movement.
23. Final Inspection
Inspect your machine to ensure that all hardware is tight and components are properly as-
sembled.
Do not use until the machine has been fully assembled and inspected for
correct performance in accordance with the Owner's Manual.
