your workout to be a little easier you can lower the workout intensity
and the program will automatically adjust to your desired performance
level.
... drive motor
The treadmill is powered by a 3.0 CHP Mach Z drive motor. In addition to providing a smooth, quiet, workout the drive motor also contains an axial cooling fan that cools down the temperature of the internal components. This internal cooling helps to extend the working life of the motor.

... safety key
A safety key and lanyard is provided with the

The safety key has a lanyard with a small plastic
clip attached to one end which can be clipped onto the users clothing.
If the user were to accidentally trip or fall while on the treadmill the
key is pulled away from the console causing the treadmill's walking
belt to slow to a stop.
... user weight
When choosing a treadmill you should ensure that the
manufacturer's user weight limit can accommodate the weight of user that
will be using the treadmill. This treadmill has a maximum user weight
limit of 350 lbs.
... foldaway design
Treadmills can take up a fair amount of space and so
storing them can be a problem. This model goes some way to resolving
this problem with it's "space saver" technology.
This facility allows you to fold the treadmill into an
upright position after your workout where it will then occupy a lot
smaller floor area. This feature also makes cleaning underneath easier
and any occasional maintenance work.
