BEFORE YOU BEGIN Thank you for selecting the new PROFORM treadmill. The PROFORM 525 X treadmill offers a selec- tion of features designed to make your workouts at home more effective and enjoyable.

During shipping, a small amount of lubricant may be transferred to the top of the walking belt or the shipping carton. This is a normal condition and does not affect treadmill perfor- mance. If there is lubricant on top of the walking belt, simply wipe off the lubricant with a soft cloth and a mild, non-abrasive cleaner. - Page 7 2. Attach a Wheel (66) to the base of the Uprights (69) with a Wheel Bolt (64) and a Wheel Nut (32) as shown. Do not overtighten the Wheel Bolt; the Wheel should turn freely. With the help of a second person, carefully tip the tread- mill onto its other side.
