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 per-
manently damaged. Remove the key and unplug the power
cord. CAUTION: 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
at the right. CAUTION: To decrease the possibility of in-
jury, 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 and hold the
treadmill firmly. Using your left hand, pull the latch knob to
the left and hold it. Raise the treadmill until the latch pin is
aligned with the hole in the catch. Insert the latch pin into
the catch. Make sure that the latch pin is fully inserted
into the catch.
To protect the floor or carpet from damage, place a
mat under the treadmill. Keep the treadmill out of
direct sunlight. Do not leave the treadmill in the stor-
age 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 pin
on the lock knob is inserted into the slot in the catch.
1. Hold the handrails as shown and place one foot against a
wheel.
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. 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.
HOW TO LOWER THE TREADMILL FOR USE
1. Refer to drawing 2 above. Hold the upper end of the treadmill with your right hand as shown. Using your left
hand, pull the lock knob to the left and hold it. Pivot the treadmill down until the frame is past the pin on the lock
knob. Note: You may need to push the handrail to the side slightly.
2. Refer to drawing 1 above. Hold the treadmill firmly with both hands, and lower the treadmill to the floor.
26 CAUTION: To decrease the possibility of injury, bend your legs and keep your back straight.

4. Slide the Grounding Bracket (127) onto one of the
Handrail Spacers (65) in the location shown.
See inset drawing A. Pinch the tabs on the Grounding
Bracket (127) so that the tabs will fit into the hole in the
Upright (69 [see inset drawing B]).
See inset drawing B. Place the Handrail Spacer (65) on
the left Upright (69) as shown, with the cutout on the indi-
cated side. Note: Make sure that the tabs on the
Grounding Bracket (127 [see inset drawing A]) are in-
serted into the hole in the Upright.
5. Pull the Upright Wire Harness (98) up through the other
Handrail Spacer (65). Place the Handrail Spacer on the
right Upright (69) as shown, with the cutout on the indi-
cated side (see inset drawing A).
Have a second person hold the Handrails (66) near the
Uprights (69) as shown. Connect the Upright Wire
Harness (98) to the wires extending from the Console
Base (81). Insert the connectors and the Upright Wire
Harness into the hole in the Console Base (see inset
drawing B).
Set the Handrails (66) on the Handrail Spacers (65),
being careful not to pinch the Upright Wire Harness (98).
6. Insert two Handrail Bolts (78) with Handrail Washers (77)
into the Handrail Bushings (75), the right Upright (69),
and the right Handrail Spacer (65). Turn the Handrail
Bushings so they fit against the Upright with the thick
sides of the Bushings toward the center of the treadmill as
shown in the inset drawing. Lift the right Handrail (66) to
align the Bolts with the holes in the Handrail. Next, thread
the Bolts into the Handrail. Do not tighten the Bolts yet.
Attach the left Handrail (not shown) in the same way.
Tighten all four Handrail Bolts (78).
7. Make sure that all parts are tightened before you use the treadmill. Note: If there is a thin sheet of clear
plastic on the face of the hood decal and the "ComforTrack" decal, remove it. Keep the included allen wrench in
a secure place. The allen wrench is used to adjust the walking belt (see page 28). To protect the floor or car-
pet from damage, place a mat under the treadmill.
