HOW TO FOLD THE TREADMILL FOR STORAGE
Before folding the treadmill, adjust the incline to the
lowest position. If you do not do this, you may permanently
damage the treadmill. Remove the key and unplug the
power cord. CAUTION: You must be able to safely lift 45
lbs. (20 kg) to raise, lower, or move the treadmill.
1. Hold the frame with your hands in the location shown by
the arrow at the right.
CAUTION: To decrease the possi-
bility of injury, bend your legs and keep your back
straight. As you raise the frame, make sure to lift with
your legs rather than your back.
Raise the frame about
halfway to the vertical position.
2. Move your right hand to the position shown and hold the
treadmill firmly. Pull the latch knob to the left and hold it.
Raise the frame until the plate passes the pin on the latch
knob. Release the latch knob.
Make sure that the plate
is resting against the pin as shown.
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 85° F (30° C).

age position as described above.

wheels. Carefully move the treadmill to the desired loca-
tion.
Never move the treadmill without tipping it back.
