The Pro-Form 785 Treadmill is a large piece of fitness equipment. It is made up of a console, handrail, foot rail, walking belt and walking platform. The walking belt is attached to the walking platform. The handrail attaches to the walking platform and rise perpendicular to it by means of base mounts attached to the frame of the walking platform. Across the handrail is the console. The Pro-Form 785 Treadmill comes with the walking belt already attached to the walking platform. Essentially, what you will be doing is take the console off the handrails and then detaching the handrails from the base mounts and the base mounts from the frame, leaving you with four separate pieces.
