CLEANING THE TREADMILL
Wipe the treadmill surfaces, especially the handlebars and meter from
dust with a damp cloth or towel. Do not use solvents.
Use a small vacuum nozzle to carefully vacuum around all visible
components (belt, running deck, side rails etc.). To clean the underside of
the treadmill, carefully turn the treadmill on its side, or if your treadmill
is J6F, lift the running deck to the storage position.
ALIGNING THE RUNNING BELT
Monitor belt tracking during exercise and make adjustments as needed.
The belt should run in the centre of the treadmill. Alignment is not
usually needed, provided
:: the treadmill is placed on an even, solid and horizontal surface
and the belt is correctly tensioned
:: the alignment of the belt is correct
It is, however, possible for the belt to be pushed to one side due to the
users running style (e.g. more weight on one foot). The alignment of the
belt is adjusted by turning the two bolts at the back of the treadmill.
Align the belt according to the following instructions:
1. Turn the power switch on and increase the treadmills speed to
5 km/h (3 mph).
2. If the belt drifts to the left, turn the left adjustment bolt 1/8 turn
clockwise and the right adjustment bolt 1/8 turn anticlockwise.
Do not turn more than 1/8 at the time as already very small
adjustments effect the alignment.
:: If the belt drifts to the right, turn the right adjustment bolt 1/8
turn clockwise and the left adjustment bolt 1/8 turn anticlockwise.
3. If the belt remains centered the adjustment is correct. If not,
continue to make small adjustments as above until the belt is
correctly aligned.
If the belt is allowed run across to one side for long periods of time the
edges of the belt may be damaged and the treadmill may not continue
to operate correctly. Any damage to the belt caused by the lack of
necessary adjustment will not be covered by the warranty.
MAINTENANCE ::
CAUTION! Do not attempt any servicing or adjustment
other than those described in this manual. Any other servicing must
be performed by an authorized service representative.
Check the tightness of all xing screws once a year. Do not overtighten.
LUBRICATING THE RUNNING DECK
Lubrication is the most important service activity for the treadmill.
This is absolutely essential, if the friction of the running deck increases
noticeably or the motor begins to heat up; increased friction is indicated
by jerky movement of the belt or by error code 15 appearing on the
display. Insuf cient lubrication will cause the belt, running deck and
motor to wear out and break. The running belt is factory treated with
wax, which signi cantly reduces the need for additional lubrication. The
need for relubrication depends to a great extent on the running styles and
weight of the user: heavy user weight and slow speed put particular
strain on the device and therefore demand greater lubrication. We
recommend you check the lubrication after every 50 hours of use. Use
only T-Lube lubricant to lubricate the treadmill. Contact your local
Tunturi distributor for further supplies of T-Lube.
:: Attach the nozzle to the T-Lube container.
:: Let the treadmill run at 5 km/h (3 mph).
:: Push the nozzle completely into the lubrication pipe. Spray T-
Lube into the pipe, at the same time pulling the nozzle out of the
pipe until the marking on the nozzle appears. The lubrication
should last for 2-3 seconds. Repeat the lubrication on the other
side of the treadmill.
:: The treadmill is instantly ready for use.
NOTE! The device must never be lubricated with silicone!
