Owner’s Manual: Maintenance 70
Maintenance
It is important to perform the minor maintenance tasks
described in this section. Failure to maintain the treadmill as
described here could void the Precor Limited Warranty.
To reduce the risk of electrical shock,
always unplug the unit from its power
source before cleaning it or
performing any maintenance tasks.
Inspection
Inspect the treadmill daily.
1. Look and listen for slipping belts, loose fasteners,
unusual noises, worn or frayed power cords, and any
other indications that the equipment may be in need of
service. If you notice any of these, obtain service.
Important: If you determine that the treadmill needs
service, make sure that the treadmill cannot be used
inadvertently. Turn the unit Off, and then unplug the
power cord from its power source. Make sure other
users know that the treadmill needs service.
2. Check for worn, frayed or missing safety lanyards.
Replace missing or worn safety lanyards immediately.
Do not exercise on the treadmill without attaching the
safety clip to your clothing.
To order parts or to contact a Precor authorized service
provider in your area, refer to Obtaining Service.
Cleaning the Equipment
Most of the working mechanisms are protected inside the
hood and base of the treadmill. However, for efficient
operation, the treadmill relies on low friction. To keep the
friction low, the unit’s running belt, staging platforms, and
internal mechanisms must be as clean as possible.
Precor recommends the treadmill be cleaned before and
after each workout. Use mild soap and water to dampen a
soft cloth and wipe all exposed surfaces. This helps remove
any dust or dirt.
CAUTION: Do not use any acidic cleaners. Doing so will
weaken the paint or powder coatings and void the Precor
Limited Warranty. Never pour water or spray liquids on any
part of the treadmill. Allow the treadmill to dry completely
before using.
