Maintaining the 903 Manual Treadmill
The 903 treadmill requires little maintenance. Periodically, you need to clean the
treadmill and possibly realign the running belt. Instructions for these proce-
dures are provided in this section. At the end of this section, you will find
information about how to receive additional service.
Cleaning the Treadmill
Before a workout, use a damp, soft cloth to clean the side rails and handrail.
This removes any dirt or dust that might affect the smooth operation of the
treadmill.
Do not pour water or spray liquids on the treadmill. Allow the treadmill to dry
completely before using.
Storing the Treadmill
The 903 treadmill has wheels at the rear of the treadmill for moving and storage
purposes and provides locking mechanisms for the handrail. To store the
treadmill in a horizontal (base on floor) position, keep in mind that you need a
vertical clearance of 14 to 20 inches if you plan to store it underneath some-
thing. You can also position the treadmill in a vertical position on its front lift
bar to open up floor space when the treadmill is not is use.
To store the treadmill in a horizontal position, take the following steps:
1. Hold onto the handrail with one hand and with the other hand, loosen the
T-knobs from their upright locked position until the T-knob screw
disengages from the frame plate.
2. Lower the handrail onto the surface of the deck.
3. Align the T-knob screws with the lower hole in the side rail. Lock the
handrail into position by tightening both T-knobs securely.
4. Move to the front of the treadmill. Place both hands on the front lift bar.
5. Lift the front of the treadmill off the floor and on its wheels roll it to the
storage location. Note that the treadmill weighs approximately 60 pounds.
To avoid injury, ask for assistance before lifting the treadmill.
CAUTION: A special lubricant
exists between the treadmill’s
running belt and deck. Do not
clean between the deck and
running belt because you will
remove the lubricant.
CAUTION: Use proper lifting
techniques to avoid injury
when lifting the front of the
treadmill off the floor. The
903 treadmill weighs
approximately 60 pounds.
