BELT/DECK LUBRICATION PROCEDURE
Do not lubricate with other than approved lubricant. Your treadmill comes with one
tube of lubricant and extra tubes can be ordered directly from your authorized
dealer.
The console has a built in lubrication reminder indicator that lights every 180 hours
of use.
At the middle of the deck, lift up on the belt and reach under with the tube of
lubricant. Squirt most of the lubricant on the deck surface. Repeat the process on
the opposite side. Plug the electrical cord back into the outlet and walk on the belt at a moderate speed for five
minutes.
If unable to perform the above procedure, it will be necessary to loosen the walking belt. Using the 6 mm Allen
wrench supplied, loosen the two rear roller adjustment bolts -- located in the rear end caps – enough to get your
hand under the belt. Make sure to loosen both bolts the same amount of turns and also remember how many
turns, because when finished you will need to tighten the bolts back to the point they were before.
Once the belt is loose, wipe the deck with a clean lint free cloth to remove any dirt. Apply the whole tube of
lubricant onto the deck surface about 45 cm from the motor cover. Squeeze out the contents of the tube across
the deck (parallel to the motor cover) in about a one-foot line, like toothpaste on a toothbrush. The one-foot line
should be in the middle of the deck at approximately equal distance from both side edges of the belt. Once the
lubricant is applied, tighten the rear roller bolts the same amount of turns as when you loosened them. Run the
treadmill at about 5 km/h without walking on it for about a minute or two to make sure the belt stays in the
middle of the deck.

ADJUSTING THE SPEED SENSOR
1.
Remove the motor cover hood by loosening the 4 screws that hold it in place
(you do not need to remove them completely).
2.
The speed sensor is located on the left side of the frame, right next to the
front roller pulley (the pulley will have a belt around it that also goes to the
motor). The speed sensor is small and black with a wire connected to it.
3.
Make sure the sensor is as close as possible to the pulley without touching it.
You will see a magnet on the face of the pulley; make sure the sensor is
aligned with the magnet. There is a screw that holds the sensor in place that
needs to be loosened to adjust the sensor.
Re-tighten the screw when finished.
