Treadmill Desk - Student Life Centre

1. You propel the treadmill. The further forward you step, the faster the treadmill will move. 
2. You can adjust the position of the desk, sliding it forward or back. This will impact your walking speed.
   1. To move the desk forwards and backwards, find the knob with the red button underneath the middle of the desk and pull it towards the floor. Move the desk backwards or forwards as needed, and then push the red button to pop the knob back up towards the ceiling and lock the desk into place. 
3. The further forward the desk, the further forward you will be and the faster you will walk.
4. If you move the desk all the way back, you can stand or lean against the backrest and use it as a standing desk.
5. The further back the desk, the further back you will be and the slower you will walk.
