ASSEMBLY
Assembly requires two people. Set the treadmill in a cleared area and remove all packing materials. Do not
dispose of the packing materials until assembly is completed. Assembly requires your own phillips screw-
driver and rubber mallet .
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.
Next, tip the treadmill to the other side and insert the
other Extension Leg (not shown) in the same way. Lower
the side of the treadmill so that both Extension Legs
(102) are resting flat on the floor. 102

6. Look at the Endcap (58). If the left or right foot on the End-
cap does not touch the floor, the included thick base pads 6
should be attached to the treadmill as described below.
If either side of the Endcap (58) lifts off the floor when the Foot
treadmill is used, attach the thick base pads as described.
7. Make sure that all parts are tightened before you use the treadmill. Keep the included allen wrench in a
secure place. The allen wrench is used to adjust the walking belt (see page 21). To protect the floor or carpet
from damage, place a mat under the treadmill.
