MAINTENANCE
21
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 clean by dusting regularly. Be sure to dust the exposed part of the deck 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.
Use the following timetable as a guide to lubricate the deck :
Type of user Exercising hours per week Number of times
Light user less than 3 hours Annually
Medium user 3-5 hours Every six months
Heavy user More than 5 hours Every three months
