that all users of the incline trainer are adequately informed of all warnings and precautions.
3. Use the incline trainer only as described in
this manual.

Assembly requires two persons. Set the incline trainer in a cleared area and remove all packing materials. Do
not dispose of the packing materials until assembly is completed. Assembly can be completed using the in-
cluded hex key and your own adjustable wrench .
Note: The underside of the incline trainer walking belt is coated with high-performance lubricant. During shipping,
small amount of lubricant may be transferred to the top of the walking belt or the shipping carton. This is a nor-
a
mal condition and does not affect incline trainer performance. 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.
Use the drawings below to identify the assembly hardware. The number in parentheses below each drawing is
the key number of the part, from the PART LIST near the end of this manual. The number after the parentheses
shows the quantity needed for assembly. Note: If a part is not in the parts bag, check to see if it is preat-
tached to one of the parts to be assembled. Extra hardware may be included. To avoid damaging plastic
parts, do not use power tools for assembly.

frame firmly in the location shown at the right. CAUTION: To decrease the possibility of damage to the
incline trainer or of injury, do not lift the frame by the
plastic front cover or by the handrail. Carefully roll the
incline trainer on the wheels to the desired location and
then lower it to the level position.
