WARNING: ALWAYS UNPLUG THE TREADMILL FROM THE ELECTRICAL OUTLET
BEFORE CLEANING, LUBRICATING OR SERVICING THE UNIT.
CLEANING
General cleaning of the treadmill will prolong the life of the treadmill and improve
performance. Keep the unit dean by dusting regularly. Be sure to dust the exposed part of
the desk on either side of the walking belt and also the side rails. For best performance,
we recommend your treadmill be placed on a treadmill mat. Along with reducing noise, a
treadmill mat will help to keep dust debris away from your treadmill's critical components.
Clean the top of the belt with a wet, soapy cloth. Be careful to keep liquid away from
inside the motorized treadmill frame or underneath the belt.
WARNING : ALWAYS UNPLUG THE TREADMILL FROM THE ELECTRICAL OUTLET
BEFORE REMOVING THE MOTOR COVER.
At least once a year remove the
motor cover and vacuum under the motor cover.
WALKING BELT AND DECK LUBRICATION
It's important to take good care of your treadmill
deck (the walking surface underneath the belt),
because the belt/deck friction may affect the
function and life of your treadmill and requires
periodic lubrication.
Provided with the treadmill is a small sample bottle of lubrication oil. Just lift the belt and
spread from the centre of the deck to the edge where the belt touches the deck, do this to
both sides of the treadmill. If you run or jog your stride widens, so spread to the front of
the deck to reduce friction in this area. Use the following timetable as a guide to lubricate
the deck. Silicone spray can also be used as a belt and deck lubricant following the same
instruction.
Note: In tropical areas you may have to lubricate more often due to humidity.
