CAUTION:
Before you perform any care, cleaning, maintenance, repair or similar work on your training device, switch off
the power and remove the power cable from the electrical socket. Check before starting the planned work that
your exerciser is completely disconnected and switched off. Only when all work is fully completed, and the de
-
vice is completely re-assembled, may the training device be reconnected to the mains and switched on.
Before first use or after a long break from training
Check that the treadmill is safe. There must be no objects on or under the device. Make sure that there is a
continuous film of lubricant (silicone) on the running deck. If this is not the case, then use the supplied silicone
to apply a lubricant film.
Maintenance & Cleaning Intervals:
After each workout, clean the treadmill with a damp cloth to remove possible perspiration and / or other liquid
residues. Under no circumstances use solvents for this purpose. Dry the cleaned areas thoroughly.
Check the lubrication of the running belt: once a week
If your regular checks show that there is no longer enough lubrication, lubricate the belt immediately and shorten
the checking interval accordingly as necessary. If the treadmill has a folding mechanism and has been standing
upright for a long time, check whether there is still enough lubricant present.
Check the alignment of the belt: once a week
The alignment of the running belt must be checked regularly. Should you notice that the belt is running to one
side, this must be corrected immediately. Please read the corresponding section in the manual.
Clean the motor compartment: once a month
To clean the motor compartment, remove the motor cover bolts and cover.
CAUTION
: This work may only be performed when the training device is switched off and the power plug is re
-
moved. Vacuum the visible dust with the small nozzle of a vacuum cleaner. Never use detergent or compressed
air under any circumstances.
Check the mounting materials: once a month
Check the bolts and nuts at least once a month. Tighten, if necessary.
Why is maintenance of my treadmill so important?
For you to enjoy your treadmill for a long time, it is important to do some basic maintenance regularly and con
-
scientiously. The intervals of this work depend very much on the degree of utilisation of the device and there-
fore, the intervals may need to be shorter than specified.
What can happen if there is a lack of maintenance?
There is friction between the running belt and the running deck when in use. Any kind of friction means wear
and thus reduces the life of your training device. By lubricating between the belt and the deck with silicone this
friction is reduced, thus increasing the life of both parts. If the treadmill runs dry the running deck will get hot,
the surface of the running deck and the running belt may be destroyed. Friction can also lead to a static charge
which can discharge on body contact with the frame. This is not only unpleasant but can also destroy the elec-
tronics of the treadmill.
Why do I have to clean the motor compartment?
Due to movement of the running belt and ventilation of the motor, the treadmill attracts dust from the environ-
ment. This dust will be deposited both under and in the device. Without cleaning, the interior of the device would
at some point get so dusty that a short would be caused in the electronic components. To avoid this, regular
cleaning is necessary.
Damage caused by neglect or lack of maintenance and care are excluded from the
Warranty and Guarantee.
Costs for the repair of a non-maintained training device can therefore quickly amount to several hundred euros.
A high price that can be avoided by regular care and maintenance
