Belt Lubrication
Use only 100% silicone and avoid using aerosol silicone sprays which include
additives and petroleum distillates. One ounce of silicone should be used for
each application. LifeSpan offers 100% silicone lubricant that can be ordered at
www.LifeSpanFitness.com.
The walking belt should be lubricated every 50 hours of use or three months.
To lubricate, unplug your treadmill.
1. Start toward the front of the treadmill, slide your hand under the belt and lift
it away from the deck.
2. Slide tube under the belt as close to the center as possible.
3. Apply controlled pressure to the squeeze bottle as you slowly pull back the
tube towards the belt edge.
4. Repeat on opposite side. (Use 1/2 oz. per side)
5. Use treadmill for 3-5 minutes to disperse lube.
Note:
When lubricating the belt, make sure the treadmill is on a
surface that can be easily cleaned. After lubricating clean
any excess silicone off the walking surface of the belt and
side rails.
