Maintaining fitness equipment can be a daunting task, but folding your Everfit treadmill doesn’t have to be one of them. With our step-by-step guide, you’ll learn the quick and easy way to fold your treadmill, saving space and keeping it in pristine condition.
Step 1: Safety First
Before you begin, ensure the treadmill is unplugged and the safety key has been removed. This will prevent any accidental operation.
Step 2: Locate the Folding Mechanism
On the base of your treadmill, you’ll find a lever or handle labeled “Fold” or “Lock.” This is the key to collapsing your treadmill.
Step 3: Release the Folding Lever
Locate the folding lever and pull it towards you. This will release the locking mechanism, allowing the deck to be lowered.
Step 4: Lower the Deck
With the lever released, gently push the handlebars forward and lower the deck until it reaches the base of the treadmill. A locking pin will automatically engage, securing the deck in its folded position.
Step 5: Secure the Console
Some Everfit treadmills have a console that can be folded down separately. Simply grasp the console and fold it down towards the base. Secure it with the provided latch or strap.
Step 6: Transport or Store
Once folded, your Everfit treadmill is ready to be transported or stored. Use the built-in wheels to move it easily.
Step 7: Unfolding Your Treadmill
When you’re ready to use your treadmill again, simply reverse the folding steps. Release the locking pin, lift the deck, and unfold the console.
Tips for Smooth Folding
- Ensure the treadmill is on a level surface.
- Do not force the deck down. If it doesn’t lower smoothly, check for any obstructions.
- Lubricate the folding mechanism regularly to prevent wear and tear.
- Store your treadmill in a dry and well-ventilated area.
