- Hi, I'm agent Mei,
and today I'll show you how to assemble
a NordicTrack 2950 treadmill.
Here's what you'll need.
The included hex key, an adjustable wrench,
a Phillips screwdriver, a flush cutter, and painters tape.
Also because of its size and weight,
you'll need two people for the assembly process.
So make sure you have someone there to help out.
If you don't have the treadmill yet,
check out Best Buy's delivery guide checklist
to make sure it'll fit in your space.
There's a link to that in the notes below.
Also, if you have an old piece of equipment
that you want removed, we offer haul away, pickup,
and recycling services for qualified products.
Check out the link in the notes below for more info.
All right, let's get started.
Go to my.nordictrack.com to register the treadmill.
Take a few minutes to complete that process
by following the on-screen prompts.
When you're done,
make sure the treadmill is not plugged in quite yet.
Then remove the tie holding the upright wire
to the front of the base.
Find the right upright and have one person
hold it near the base.
Tie the wire that's in the right upright
to the end of the upright wire.
Insert the upright wire into the hole
towards the bottom of the right upright.
Then pull the end of the wire
that's at the top of the right upright
while guiding the upright wires through it
until it comes out of the top.
Lay the right upright on the ground near the base.
Next, press the upright grommet
into the hole of the right upright
but make sure not to pinch the ground wire.
If there's a screw near where the upright grommet
has been installed, you can remove it.
You don't need it.
Attach the ground wire to the right upright
with this screw using the Phillips screwdriver.
Stand up the right upright and place it against the base,
but again, make sure the upright wire isn't being pinched.
Place some tape around the top of the adjustable wrench,
making sure that it covers any part
that's going to touch the treadmill.
That way, if it touches the treadmill,
it won't leave any scuffs or damage to the surface.
Then secure the right upright to the base
with two screws and two washers on the top holes,
but don't tighten these screws all the way.
Now, secure the right upright to the base
with two screws and two washers on the side holes.
Repeat the same steps for the left upright.
Slide the right base cover onto the right upright
and slide it down
but don't snap it into its final place yet.
Now, do the same with the left base cover
and the left upright.
If there's a film covering the decal
on the side of each upright, remove it.
Slide the upright crossbar between the right
and left uprights.
Attach the crossbar with four screws.
Then attach the tray to the crossbar with four screws.
Now attach one of the handrails to the right upright
using one screw and a washer.
Attach to the hole closest to the bend in the handrail.
Make sure the upright wire is not pinched
and place it in the notch in the right upright.
Do not over tighten.
Repeat the previous step with the other handrail
and the left upright.
You can remove and discard the screw
that came pre-installed in each handrail.
To avoid scratches, place the console assembly face down
on a soft surface.
Now, remove and discard the four screws
that are holding the pulse crossbar.
Remove it from the console assembly.
Attach the right tray to the console assembly
with four screws,
but make sure you don't over tighten.
Now, do the same for the left tray.
Attach the pulse crossbar to the handrails
using two screws, two washers, and two screws.
After those four screws have been tightened,
tightened the two screws
that we didn't fully tighten quite yet.
With help from another person,
hold the console assembly near the handrails
and connect the upright wire to the console wire,
and then remove the wire ties.
Put the console assembly onto the handrails
while guiding the wires into the top of the right upright.
Secure the console assembly to the handrails
with four screws and four washers.
You will want to start all the screws
and then tighten them after all four have been started.
Put any extra wires in the top of the right upright.
Use the included wire tie to secure the wire
to the right upright by placing it
into the small hole near the top.
Tighten it around the wires
and then cut the excess with a flush cutter.
Insert and start eight of the screws
into the underside of the pulse crossbar.
Tighten all of them after ensuring proper alignment.
Put the right handrail top cover on the right handrail.
Place the right handrail bottom cover
underneath the right handrail
and up against the right handrail top cover like this.
Start four of the screws into the right
handrail bottom cover.
Push the right handrail top cover
and the right handrail bottom cover forward
against the console to minimize as much gap as possible.
While holding it in that position,
tighten the two middle screws
in the right handrail bottom cover.
Then tighten the remaining two screws.
Repeat the previous two steps for the left side.
Have a second person grab the frame
from the opposite end of the console,
raise it up, and hold so you can access the underside.
Place the latch crossbar into the brackets
on the underside of the frame.
Attach the latch crossbar to the frame
with two screws and two washers.
Now remove the nut and the bolt
from the bracket that is on the base.
Position the storage latch into the bracket on the base
and attach it with the nut and the bolt.
Lift the storage latch to a vertical position
and remove the tie that is at the top.
Remove the nut and the bolt from the bracket on the frame.
Position the upper end of the storage latch
into the bracket on the frame.
Insert the bolt through the bracket and the storage latch.
This will push out the space.
After you do that, the spacer can be thrown away.
Now, tighten the nut onto the bolt.
Gently push the upper end of the frame forward
and then gently press the upper portion of the storage latch
with your foot at the same time to unlock the storage latch.
While the storage latch is being pressed,
slowly pull the frame toward yourself.
Step back, and the frame will lower
slowly to the ground on its own.
Tighten the screws here that secured the right upright
and the left upright to the base.
Slide the right base cover and left base cover down
until they snap into place.
All right, I know that was a lot,
but if you've made it this far, you're doing great.
If you want to move your NordicTrack 2950 treadmill,
lift the frame until the storage latch
locks in the storage position.
Hold the frame with one hand,
and while holding the handrails,
put your foot against a wheel in the base.
Pull back on the handrail until the treadmill
is on its wheels so you can roll it.
Now, carefully move it towards your desired location.
Place one foot on a wheel and carefully lower the treadmill.
While the storage latch is being pressed,
slowly pull the frame towards yourself.
Your NordicTrack 2950 treadmill is now fully assembled.
Again, if you have a piece of fitness equipment
that you want removed,
we offer haul away, pick up, and recycling services
for qualified products.
