Maintenance Instructions
WARNING! Before performing any maintenance to your treadmill, always unplug the
power cord from the surge protector.
CLEANING: Routine cleaning of your unit will extend the life of your unit.
WARNING! To prevent electrical shock, be sure the power to the treadmill is OFF and the unit is
unplugged from the wall electrical outlet before attempting any cleaning or maintenance.
AFTER EACH WORKOUT: Wipe off the console and other treadmill surfaces with a clean,
water dampened soft cloth to remove excess perspiration. USE NO CHEMICALS.
WEEKLY: Use of a treadmill mat is recommended for ease of cleaning. Dirt from your shoes
contacts the belt and eventually makes it to underneath the treadmill. Vacuum underneath
treadmill once a week.
DECK LUBRICATION: The walking belt has been pre-lubricated at the factory. However, it is
recommended that the walking board be checked periodically for lubrication to ensure optimal
treadmill performance. Every 30 days or 30 hours of operation, lift the sides of the walking belt
and feel the top surface of the walking board as far under as you can reach. If you feel signs
of silicone, no further lubrication is required. If it feels dry to the touch, lubrication is needed.
Ironman Fitness recommends “Lube N Walk” for cleaning and lubricating the treadmill belt and
deck. Ask your retailer or call Ironman Fitness at (800)750-4766.
TO APPLY LUBRICANT TO THE WALKING BOARD
1.) Take foam wand applicator, without lube, and insert it in between the walking belt and deck,
exposing the two plastic tabs at either end of the walking belt. Take both tabs and run the
wand back and fort along the entire length of your deck. Remove the applicator and prepare for
lubrication.
2) Apply about a dime's worth of lubrication onto the side of the applicator wand that was not
used for removing dirt and debris (step 1). You can add more or less lubricant, depending on
your lubrication schedule.
3) Insert the wand between the walking belt and deck, exposing the two white plastic tabs at
either end of the walking belt.
4) Take both of the tabs and run the wand back and forth along the entire length of your deck.
You are done until your next scheduled lubrication date.
5) Allow the silicone to ‘set’ for one minute before using the treadmill.
WARNING: Do not over-lubricate the walking board. Excess lubricant should be wiped
off with a clean towel.
