MAINTENANCE
Cleanliness of your treadmill and its operation environment will keep maintenance problems and serv-
ice calls to a minimum. For this reason, we recommend that the following preventive maintenance
schedule be followed.
AFTER EACH USE (DAILY)
Clean and inspect, following these steps:
Turn off the treadmill with the on/off switch, then unplug the power cord at the wall outlet.
Wipe down the running belt, deck, motor cover, and console casing with a damp cloth. Never use
solvents, as they can cause damage to the treadmill.
Inspect the power cord. If the power cord is damaged, contact Horizon Fitness.
Make sure the power cord is not underneath the treadmill or in any other area where it can become
pinched or cut.
Check the tension and alignment of the running belt. Make sure that the treadmill belt will not dam-
age any other components on the treadmill by being misaligned.
EVERY WEEK
Clean underneath the treadmill, following these steps:
Turn off the treadmill with the on/off switch, then unplug the power cord at the wall outlet.
Fold the treadmill into the upright position, making sure that the lock latch is secure.
Move the treadmill to a remote location.
Wipe or vacuum any dust particles or other objects that may have accumulated underneath the treadmill.
Return the treadmill to its previous position.
EVERY MONTH
Turn off the treadmill with the on/off switch, then unplug the power cord at the wall outlet.
Inspect all assembly bolts of the machine for proper tightness.
Remove the motor cover and clean the motor and lower board area to eliminate any lint or dust
particles that may have accumulated. Failure to do so may result in premature failure of key electrical
components.
EVERY 6 MONTHS
It may be necessary to lubricate your treadmill running deck every six months to maintain optimal per-
formance of your treadmill. Only use lubricant provided by Horizon Fitness! Please contact Horizon
Fitness with questions about applying lubricant to your treadmill.
Turn off the treadmill with the on/off switch, then unplug the power cord at the wall outlet.
Loosen both the rear roller bolts. (for best results, place two removable marks on both sides of the
frame and note roller position). Once the belt is loosened, take the bottle of lubricant and apply it to
the entire top surface of the running deck. Tighten both rear roller bolts (matching up the marks for
proper position) to original position. After you have applied lubricant, plug in the power cord, insert the
safety key
, start the treadmill and walk on the belt for two minutes to spread the lubricant.
Lubricate the air shocks with teflon based spray.
