PROCEDURE
STEP 1: Cleaning the deck and belt:
Using the stick or ruler, slide a towel under the middle of the running belt from
one side of the frame to the other.
Hold the edges of the towel, pull from head-roller down to the tailroller, then pull
the belt down to wipe the remaining of the belt. TIP: Careful when removing the
towel, it will be dirty. Fold the dirty towel and shake into trash.
STEP 2: Re-waxing the deck and belt:
Lift the left side (facing the display) of the belt, about 12 inches down from the
motor shroud (see above figure). Hold the belt up such that the width of the belt
is elevated from the deck.
Gently place one level teaspoon of wax powder on the deck about two inches
from the edge, and blow the wax steadily under the belt, so that the wax powder
is spread evenly across the deck (see above figure). Gently place a second
level teaspoon of wax 18 inches down the belt.
Repeat the above step to the right side of the belt and deck.
STEP 3: Walking the wax in:
Start the treadmill at 1 mph and walk on all sections of the belt and deck for 1
minute to ensure the wax has been evenly distributed and worked-in properly.
STEP 4: Clean-up:
Remove any excess wax with diluted cleaner (409) and towel, or bristle brush.
STEP 5: Clear RE WAX prompt:
Engage Settings or Configure Modes. Press and hold the “0”, “1” or(2) &
START” keys down, release the “1” or (2) key only. Display will beep and
display SETTINGS or CONFIGURE momentarily (depending if the 1 or 2 key
was released), then UNITS will be displayed.
Press the Incline Down Key (elevation) until LSTDCK is displayed. Press and
release the HEART Key, this will automatically transfer the accumulated
miles/kilometers into the LSTDCK, press the ENTER Key to save.
