ASSEMBLY
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 nor-
mal 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 wrenches and your own phillips screwdriver ,
wire cutters , and needlenose pliers .
To identify small parts, use the PART IDENTIFICATION CHART attached in the center of this manual.
Note: If a part is not in the parts bag, first check to see if it has been pre-assembled.
