MAINTENANCE

Cleanliness  of  your  treadmill  and  its  operation  environment  will  keep  maintenance  problems  and  service  calls  to  a 

minimum. For this reason, we recommend that the following preventive maintenance schedule be followed.

AFTER EACH USE (DAILY)

Clean and inspect, following these steps:

•  Turn off the treadmill with the on/off switch, then unplug the power cord at the wall outlet.

•  Wipe down the running belt, deck, motor cover, and console casing with a damp cloth. Never use solvents, as they 

can cause damage to the treadmill.

•  Inspect the power cord. If the power cord is damaged, contact Horizon Fitness.

•  Make sure the power cord is not underneath the treadmill or in any other area where it can become pinched or cut.

•  Check the tension and alignment of the running belt. Make sure that the treadmill belt will not damage any other 

components on the treadmill by being misaligned.

EVERY WEEK

Clean underneath the treadmill, following these steps:

•  Turn off the treadmill with the on/off switch, then unplug the power cord at the wall outlet.

•  Fold the treadmill into the upright position, making sure that the lock latch is secure.

•  Move the treadmill to a remote location.

•  Wipe or vacuum any dust particles or other objects that may have accumulated underneath the treadmill.

•  Return the treadmill to its previous position.

EVERY MONTH - IMPORTANT!

•  Turn off the treadmill with the on/off switch, then unplug the power cord at the wall outlet.

•  Inspect all assembly bolts of the machine for proper tightness.

•  Turn off the treadmill and wait 60 seconds.

•  Remove the motor cover. Wait until all displays turn off.

•  Clean the motor and lower board area to eliminate any lint or dust particles that may have accumulated. Failure to 

do so may result in premature failure of key electrical components.

• Vacuum and wipe down the belt with a damp cloth. Vacuum any black/white particles that may accumulate around 

the unit. These particles may accumulate from normal treadmill use.

EVERY 6 MONTHS OR 150 MILES

It is necessary to lubricate your treadmill running deck every six months 

or 150 miles to maintain optimal performance. Once the treadmill reaches 

150 miles, the console will display the message “LUBE” or “LUBE BELT”. 

The treadmill will not operate while the message is showing. Hold Stop 

for 5 seconds to suspend message for 5 miles. Your treadmill came with 

a bottle of lubricant which can be used for two applications. If you need 

lubricant, contact Horizon Fitness. Only use lubricant provided by Horizon 

Fitness.

• Turn off the treadmill with the on/off switch, then unplug the power 

  cord at the wall outlet.

•  Loosen both the rear roller bolts. (For best results, place two removable 

  marks on both sides of the frame and note roller position). Once the 

  belt is loosened, take the bottle of lubricant and apply it to the entire 

  top surface of the running deck. Tighten both rear roller bolts 

  (matching up the marks for proper position) to original position. After 

  you have applied lubricant, plug in the power cord, insert the safety 

  key, start the treadmill and walk on the belt for two minutes to spread 

  the lubricant.

• Lubricate the air shocks with Teflon based spray.

• Once lubrication is complete, reset the console by pressing and holding ‘STOP’ and Speed ‘+’ buttons for 5 seconds.

Please contact Horizon Fitness with questions about applying lubricant to your treadmill.
