5-2 Preventative Maintenance Cardiac Stress Treadmills Service Manual
Cleaning the Treadmill Surfaces
Follow these steps to clean the treadmill after servicing or as required:
1. Elevate the treadmill to maximum height and vacuum the floor under
it to prevent excess dust and dirt from interfering with operation.
2. Clean the treadmill exterior with a damp sponge, then dry thoroughly.
Caution! Never wipe the deck under the belt, even when replacing a
belt. Wiping can damage the surface.
Do not use detergents or cleaning agents on any part of the
deck.
Do not let liquid enter the treadmill interior. If it does,
inspect and test the equipment for safety before using it
again.
Disinfection
Disinfection, when necessary, is the responsibility of the individual
facility, which should follow its own established procedure. Do not use
liquids on the deck surface.
Vacuuming Under the Treadmill Hood
Dust and dirt beneath the hood can restrict the air flow needed to cool the
unit and dissipate heat from the drive motor and drive board on the AC
Drive Module. To prevent damage to components, periodically vacuum
the mechanical drive and the area behind the AC Drive Module.
Frequency
Treadmill use and environment determine how much dust accumulates
and how frequently you need to vacuum the components. Inspect the
internal components at least every six months. Adjust the inspection
schedule as needed If significant accumulations occur more frequently,
vacuum as needed.
Warning! To avoid electric shock, turn off the treadmill circuit
breaker and unplug the treadmill and stress monitor power
cords before removing the hood. Before working near
components, wait at least two minutes from the time you
unplugged the power cord. Be sure the red LED on the
drive board on the AC Drive Module is off.
The power control on the stress monitor does not turn off
electrical current to the treadmill.
Caution! Use extreme caution to avoid physical damage to the
internal components. Avoid static discharge, which can
damage the electronic components.
1. Remove the hood as described in “Removing the Treadmill Hood” on
page 4-3.
