MAINTENANCE
HOW TO MAINTAIN YOUR TREADMILL:
Proper maintenance is very important to ensure your treadmill is always in top working condition. Improper
maintenance could cause damage or shorten the life of your treadmill.
• Important: Never use abrasives or solvents to clean the treadmill. To prevent damage to the computer, keep
liquids away and keep it out of direct sunlight.
• Inspect and tighten all parts of the treadmill regularly. Replace any worn parts immediately.
BELT ADJUSTMENT:
The running belt has been properly adjusted at the factory. However transportation, uneven flooring or other
unpredicted reasons could cause the belt to shift off center resulting in the belt rubbing with the plastic side rail or end
caps and possibly causing damage. To adjust the belt back to it’s proper position please follow the directions below:
1. If your belt tends to walk to the right, rotate the right tension bolt clockwise. We recommend adjustments of
1/4 turn at a time, and follow with a test. If your belt continues to walk to the right, simply adjust the left belt
tension bolt by turning it 1/4 turn counterclockwise, and follow with a test.
2. If your belt tends to walk to the left, rotate the left tension bolt clockwise 1/4 turn at a time, and follow with a
test. If the belt continues to walk to the left, simply adjust the right tension bolt counterclockwise.
3. If your belt appears to be loose, simply tighten both bolts evenly 1/4 turn. If it appears tight, simply loosen
both bolts evenly 1/4 turn.
Right and left tension bolts are located at the rear of the treadmill.
DECK LUBRICATION:
The walking belt has been pre-lubricated at the factory. However, it is recommended that the walking board be
checked periodically for lubrication to ensure optimal treadmill performance. Your treadmill should not have to be
lubricated usually within the first year or 500 hours of use.
Every 3 months of operation lift the sides of the walking belt and feel the top surface of the walking board as far as you
can reach. If you feel signs of silicone, no further lubrication is required. If it feels dry to the touch, follow the
instructions below.
Please use a non-petroleum based silicone.
