Folding the Treadmill
A. Make sure that the On/Off switch is turned Off and the power cord is
removed from the wall.
B. Make sure nothing is on or near your treadmill which might spill, be knocked
over or prevent the treadmill from completely folding.
C. Place both hands under the support bar that is located directly under the
back of the running belt on your treadmill to make sure that you have a solid
lifting point.
D. Lift the treadmill all the way forward and make sure the
hydraulic shock is properly locked in place.
E. Ensure that the locking mechanism is secure by gently pulling back on the
treadmill and make sure that it doesn't move.

that could cause it to become unstable or fall over.
