4. Setup & Assembly

The LONTEK U18F Walking Pad requires minimal assembly. Follow these steps to get started:

1. Unboxing: Carefully remove the main walking pad unit and all accessories from the packaging. Ensure all protective materials are removed.
2. Handlebar Installation: The handlebar comes pre-attached but may need to be secured in the upright position. Tighten the screws on the sides of the handlebar base to lock it into place. To fold the handlebar down for under-desk use or storage, loosen these screws.
3. Phone/Tablet Holder Attachment: Secure the phone/tablet holder to the designated area on the handlebar using the provided small screws and tool.
4. Incline Foot Pad Placement (Optional): For a 15% incline, place the red foot pad(s) under the rear of the treadmill as indicated in the diagrams. For a 10% incline, the treadmill's built-in legs provide this angle. For a flat surface, ensure no incline pads are used and the handlebar is in the upright position.

5. Operating Instructions

Your LONTEK Walking Pad is designed for user-friendly operation. Here's how to use it:

6. Key Features

• Adjustable Incline: Features a 10% manual incline for uphill simulation. This can be increased to 15% by adding the included red foot pad, providing a higher intensity workout to boost calorie burn and target additional muscle groups.
• Powerful & Quiet Motor: Equipped with a robust 2.5HP motor, supporting users up to 300 lbs. It operates at a quiet noise level below 45 dB, ensuring a powerful performance without disturbing others.
• Space-Saving Foldable Design: The ultra-slim profile, measuring just 4.3 inches when folded, allows for easy storage under beds or sofas. Front transport wheels enable effortless relocation.
• Secure Workouts: A sturdy handlebar and 300 lbs weight capacity ensure safety. The 6-layer non-slip running belt, combined with an advanced shock absorption system, minimizes joint impact for a comfortable, low-impact exercise.
