End of service life and disposal of the device
11.1 Cleaning the device
First switch off the device and unplug it from the wall socket.
The frame, the handles and the operating console (including the buttons) may be cleaned with a damp cloth.
Use lukewarm water, possibly with a domestic cleaning product (no abrasive products, alcohol solution or other
aggressive cleaning agents). The running surface may be cleaned with a damp sponge; again, use lukewarm
water for this. After cleaning, allow to dry thoroughly before using the treadmill once again. The EN-Motion has
a maintenance-free band. It is therefore not necessary to wax the deck and running surface of your treadmill.
11.2 Maintenance
Taking good care of your treadmill and its surroundings minimises maintenance problems and servicing
requirements.
We recommend the following preventive maintenance schedules:
11.2.1
Daily maintenance
•
Switch off the treadmill using the On/Off switch and unplug it from the wall socket.
•
Wipe down the running surface, deck, motor cover and console with a damp cloth. Never use solvents as
these can damage the treadmill.
•
Check the mains cable. If the cable is damaged, contact your supplier.
•
Make sure that the cable does not pass beneath the treadmill or anywhere else it could get damaged.
•
Check the tension and alignment of the running surface. Make sure that the running surface is not
damaging other parts of the band through misalignment.
•
Check the running surface and all other moving parts for wear or perceptible defects such as damage or
small tears.
•
Sigma chest strap: after use, carefully clean the transmitter with a mild soap solution and rinse with clean
water, then dry thoroughly.
11.2.2
Weekly maintenance
Clean the control panel and the exterior of the treadmill.
Check that the (patient) stop function is working.
Clean beneath the treadmill by following the steps below:
•
Switch off the treadmill using the On/Off switch and unplug it from the wall socket.
•
Move the treadmill to a different position.
•
Remove the dust which has collected beneath the treadmill using a broom or vacuum cleaner.
•
Ditto for the running surface.
•
Return the treadmill to its original position.
11.2.3
Regular maintenance
The regular maintenance depends on the intensity of use. Given an average use of 8 hours a day, 5 days a
week, we would advise you to carry out the following maintenance on a regular basis (monthly):
•
Check that all the mounting bolts are tightened properly.
•
Check the various visible parts, such as the band and the running surface, for wear.
•
If necessary, lightly lubricate the visible rotating parts with machine oil.
11.2.4
Annual maintenance
Each year, you should arrange for your device to be examined by a service technician who has been
authorised by Enraf-Nonius (see also point 11.3).
In the event of possible damage or defects noted by you during one of the checks above, you must ensure that
the device can no longer be used until the said damage or defects have been completely rectified.
