If all else fails, the used elliptical may have a defect or may not be compatible with your needs. You may need to consider purchasing a new one or a different model for your clients warm-up needs.
I have a life fitness T3 showing an error FOLDED. What does that mean?
The treadmill has a 'folding' feature for the incline setting. A safety switch must be reading this feature as not locked. Try this. Set the incline to 0% and the speed to zero. Step in front of the treadmill and using both hands carefully raise the whole front until the legs click and lock into place.
To lower the treadmill kneel behind the treadmill. Place your Right hand on the belt and lean your weight on it. At the back of the treadmill on the Left side panel is a lever. Pull this lever until the treadmill stops lowering.
