Assembling the Treadmill 25
Completing Assembly
After the upright supports and the fairing are in place, replace
the hood on the treadmill base and finish securing the
fasteners.
CAUTION: Be aware of the handrail extensions when you are
working around the front of the unit. It is easy to bump your head
or sustain other injuries if you ignore the location of the handrail
extensions.
To secure the fasteners:
1. Using an alternating order, tighten the eight fasteners that
secure the upright supports to the treadmill base.
2. Fully tighten the six screws that secure the console fairing
to the upright supports.
To complete assembly of the treadmill base:
Important: Use your fingers to align and thread the four hood
fasteners properly. Then use a wrench to tighten the hood
fasteners completely as described in the following step.
1. Thread the four black buttonhead screws (with black
washers) into their holes, leaving gaps of about ¹₄ inch
between the heads of the screws and the surface of the
treadmill frame.
2. Place the front of the hood on the two front screws. Make
sure the screws are aligned with the notches in the hood
and the washers are outside the hood.
3. Lower the back of the hood until the side screws rest
inside the notches in the internal wall of the hood. Make
sure the washers are outside the internal wall (on the
same side as the screw heads).
4. Tighten all four screws securely, starting with the front
screws.
