HOW TO FOLD AND MOVE THE TREADMILL

HOW TO FOLD THE TREADMILL FOR STORAGE
Before folding the treadmill, unplug the power cord. Caution:
You must be able to safely lift 45 pounds
(20 kg) in order to raise, lower, or move the treadmill.
1. Hold the treadmill with your hands in the locations shown
at the right. To decrease the possibility of injury, bend
your legs and keep your back straight. As you raise
the treadmill, make sure to lift with your legs rather
than your back. Raise the treadmill about halfway to the
vertical position.
2. Move your right hand to the position shown at the right,
and hold the treadmill firmly. Raise the treadmill until the
storage latch locks over the catch. Make sure that the
storage latch closes fully over the catch.
To protect the floor or carpet from damage, place a
mat under the treadmill. Keep the treadmill out of di-
rect sunlight. Do not leave the treadmill in the storage
position in temperatures above 34 o C.
HOW TO MOVE THE TREADMILL
Before moving the treadmill, convert the treadmill to the stor-
age position as described above. Make sure that the stor-
age latch is locked fully over the catch.
1. Hold the upper ends of the handrails. Place one foot on
one of the front wheels as shown.
2. Tilt the treadmill back until it rolls freely on the front wheels.
Carefully move the treadmill to the desired location. Never
move the treadmill without tipping it back, or the base
pads may come off. 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 the base, and carefully lower the tread-
mill until it is resting in the storage position.
