Storing the Chest Strap
If you purchased the optional heart rate chest strap, store it in
a place where it remains free of dust and dirt (for example, in
a closet or drawer). Be sure to protect the chest strap from
extremes in temperature. Do not store it in a place that may
be exposed to temperatures below 32° F (0° C).
To clean the chest strap, use a sponge or soft cloth dampened
in mild soap and water. Dry the surface thoroughly with a
clean towel.
Moving the Equipment
The equipment is very heavy. If you plan to move it to a new
location, obtain the help of an adult assistant and use proper
lifting techniques. If the equipment includes roller wheels on
one end, use the wheels to reduce the load on yourself and
your assistant.
Important: The plastic end caps on Precor treadmills are designed
specifically for lifting. Working with your assistant, place a hand
under each side of the end cap. Then, using proper lifting
techniques, lift the rear of the treadmill so that it rolls on its front
wheels.
The treadmill can be easier to move if it is in an inclined
position.
To put the treadmill into an inclined position for moving:
1. Press GO on the console.
2. Increase the incline level to 4 or more.
3. While the treadmill is running, turn the main power
switch OFF.
4. Disconnect the treadmill’s power cord.
