Adjust the belt tension if necessary.
Lubrication
The StairMaster
®
Stepmill
®
7000 PT exercise system has six components that
require periodic lubrication: the drive chain, the two step chains, the two bearing
plates and the step hinges. These parts are shown in the figure below. You will
need to remove the side covers to lubricate the chains and the bearing plates.
1. Place a protective mat on the floor while you are lubricating your
machine. A rubber floor mat is available from StairMaster Health & Fitness
Products, Inc.
