ASSEMBLY

ssembly requires two persons.Set the treadmill in a cleared area. Do not remove the cardboard from the

A area shown in drawing 2 below. Remove all other packing materials. Do not dispose of any packing materials until assembly is completed. Treadmill assembly requires the included allen wrench and your own phillips screwdriver and 9/16” wrench .

Note: The underside of the treadmill walking belt is coated with high-performance lubricant. 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 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.

1. While a second person holds one end of the treadmill, carefully tip the treadmill onto its side as shown. Using the included allen wrench and a 9/16” wrench, attach the two Extension Legs (70) to the base of the Uprights (109) with the four Bolts (71) and Nuts (74). Make sure that the Extension Legs are turned so the Base Pads (66) are in the positions shown.

With the help of a second person, carefully raise the treadmill to the vertical position, and then lower the Walking Platform (93) to the floor. Note: If the treadmill rocks slightly, tip the treadmill back onto its side, loosen the four Nuts (74), adjust the positions of the Extension Legs (70), and then retighten the Nuts. Raise the treadmill back to the vertical position. Repeat until the rocking motion is eliminated.

2. Attach the Storage Latch Assembly (33) and the Latch Spacer (35) to the left Upright (109) with the two 3/4” Screws (67) as shown. Be careful not to overtighten

the Screws.

Thread the Console Latch (55) into the right Upright (109).

of the equipment-grounding conductor can result in an increased risk of electric shock. Check with a qualified electrician or serviceman if you are in doubt as to whether the product is properly grounded. Do not modify the plug provided with the product—if it will not fit the outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician.

Your treadmill, like any other type of sophisticated electronic equipment, can be seriously damaged by sudden voltage changes in your home’s power. Voltage surges, spikes, and noise interference can result from weather conditions or from other appliances being turned on or off. To decrease the possibility of

your treadmill being damaged, always use a surge suppressor with your treadmill (see drawing 1 at the right). To purchase a surge suppressor, see your local IMAGE dealer or call 1-800-806-3651 and order part number 146148.
