ASSEMBLY

•Assembly requires two persons.

•Place all parts in a cleared area and remove the packing materials. Do not dispose of the packing materials until you finish all assembly steps.

•The underside of the walking belt is coated with high-performance lubricant. After shipping, there may be some lubricant on top of the walking belt or on the shipping carton. This is normal. If there is lubricant on top of the walking belt, wipe it off with a soft cloth and a mild, non-abrasive cleaner.

•To identify small parts, see page 7.

•Assembly requires the following tools:

the included hex keys

one Phillips screwdriver

To avoid damaging parts, do not use power tools.

1.Make sure that the power cord is unplugged.

With the help of a second person, tip the incline trainer onto its left side. Have the second person hold the incline trainer to prevent it from falling.

Attach four Base Feet (10) and four Base Foot Spacers (11) to the Base (80) with four #8 x 1" Tek Screws (2) in the locations shown. Be careful not to overtighten the Tek Screws.
