Do you HAVE to hold on to the side bars? Or can you get to a point where that is not necessary? THANKS

You must hold the side bars because the treadmill is manual. You may fall off if you are not holding on.

I suppose that if you have really good balance and aren't worried about falling, you could let go. I don't. Also, I find it easier to get the treadmill moving at a good clip if I am holding on.

I can't imagine ever getting to that point. However, it's much less cumbersome and annoying that I expected. I don't really "hold on;" I just rest a hand or two on the rail.

You have to hold on to the bars reason being is because the treadmill is a little inclined(going up) also because you have to push down on your feet to get it going. its a manual machine and not automatic.

You need to hold the button. Seems not quite convenient, but I think much safer.

I agree. The side rails come as part of the main frame. There is no way of taking one off.

Not really. Sorry. You can use a stool, which helps but I wouldn't call it easy.

I only had the side bars. I just reinforced it with 2 extra straps I bought at home depot. It didn't love at all. We traveled from Florida to north Carolina with no issues.

Just pull up on the middle of the seat. Make sure the tray is unlocked on the sides by pushing the metal bar down..I've never had a problem.

It depends on the user. Menus are split and there is no logic to what is where. I still forget where stuff is if I haven't used it recently. I'd say it's worth the trouble because the extra features are not included in simpler machines. I can only guess that some features are an afterthought, but I'm glad they are there.

Not too bad; loosen two thumb screws down near the bottom on each side. Then lift the bar up and out of the way.

You'll definitely need to hold it open. I'd suggest a large binder clip or something of that nature to keep the pages flat while you're working on it.

ps; if you are going to open only one "wing" or side panel, be sure to put something in front of it to prevent its collapsing inward-it doesn't sit in any kind of track, etc. to hold it in place otherwise. I put stuff on the floor in front of the side (opened) panel. Works nicely

I'm pretty sure,I actually had a few links left over on mine but they are a pain to get on.You have to align everything just right which makes it easier with 2 people,I did it alone.

The side bars come pre scored an one inch intervals starting at 27" down to 24". Beyond the 24" mark there are no more scores which means that it can not be easily snapped off smaller than that. While technically you could shorten it beyond the pre-scored 24" mark, but you would be on your own to figure out the appropriate tools to trim it off.

Nope, just install and get front end lined up and your good to go, I love mine!

You have to use double sided post-it notes and the weight of the top holds it in place ;-)

No, you have to find the sweet spot. Once you figure it out, you can easily hover.

No. You would need 2 hands to adjust the bar that holds the book down, each time you turn a page.

The sides snap together, you will not need tie clips. The perches have tabs that lock onto the side bars, So far, they seem to hold well.
