Assembly requires two persons. Set the incline trainer in a cleared area and remove all packing materials. Do
not dispose of the packing materials until assembly is completed. Assembly can be completed using a 7/32"
hex key and an adjustable wrench .
Note: The underside of the incline trainer walking belt is coated with high-performance lubricant. During shipping,
some lubricant may be transferred to the top of the walking belt or the shipping carton. This is normal and does
not affect incline trainer 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.
Use the drawings below to identify the assembly hardware. The number in parentheses below each drawing is
the key number of the part, from the PART LIST near the end of this manual. The number after the parentheses
shows the quantity needed for assembly. Note: Some small parts may have been preassembled. Extra hard-
ware may be included. To avoid damaging parts, do not use power tools for assembly.
