Maintenance and Tips
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 comes pre-lubricated from the factory. The TR800B and
TR1200B should be lubricated every 50 hours of use. The TR5000B comes with
a maintenance free belt and doesn’t require lubrication.
To lubricate, unplug your treadmill. Slide your hand under the belt and lift the
belt away from the deck. Apply about a dozen sprays toward the center of the
belt from each side. Rotate the belt 1/3 and repeat this application. Rotate
another 1/3 and repeat once more. Plug the treadmill in and walk for a few
minutes to disperse lube evenly.
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.
