Assembly requires two persons. Set the treadmill in a cleared area and remove all packing materials. Do not

dispose of the packing materials until assembly is completed. 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.

Assembly requires the included allen wrench and your own phillips screwdriver (with
a shaft at least 6” long) and wire cutters .

Use the drawings below to identify the hardware used during assembly. Note: If a part is not in the parts bag,
check to see if it has been preattached to one of the parts to be assembled. To avoid damaging plastic
parts, do not use power tools for assembly.

1. Make sure that the power cord is unplugged.

With the help of a second person, carefully tip the
treadmill onto its left side as shown. Partially fold the
Frame (58) so the treadmill is more stable. Do not fully

fold the Frame until the treadmill is completely as­sembled.

Attach four Base Pads (82) (only two are shown) to the
base of the Uprights (84) with four 1” Tek Screws (83).

Insert an Extension Leg (89) into the base of the Uprights
(84) as shown. Hold two Extension Leg Nuts (67) in the
bottom of the Extension Leg. Next, insert two Extension
Leg Bolts (65) with Star Washers (8) into the top of the
Extension Leg, and firmly tighten the Extension Leg Bolts
into the Extension Leg Nuts.

With the help of a second person, carefully tip the
treadmill onto its other side. Attach the other
