Lubrication
Bearings
Almost all of the bearings used in the treadmill are pre-lubricated and do not need to be greased
initially. On a yearly basis, lubricate the 4 bearings (front and rear shaft).
Running Belt
The teeth on the bottom of the running belt are pre-lubricated to aid in reducing noise. There is no
need to lubricate the teeth. If the belt is rubbing against the side of the drive pulleys, a small amount
of grease (i.e. Molykote or equal) on the edges of the belt slats will help reduce noise.
Drive Belt
As in the case of the running belt, the application of grease on the edge of the drive belt is only
needed to reduce belt squeak and should be used sparingly.
Incline System
The incline systems on WOODWAY treadmills are greased at the factory. If utilized for many hours or
in a very dusty environment, the system will need to be checked. If necessary, apply a small amount
of grease on the chains.
Note: Use a minimal amount of lubricant to prevent excess dirt and debris from sticking to the
machine after cleaning.

Adjustments and Calibration
Incline System
WOODWAY uses a linear DC motor driven lifting system. The motor drives the lifting scissors with
casters. This makes a maximum incline of 25% possible.
Running Belt
The running belt should not require adjustment. However, if the running belt or associated parts have
been changed, then belt tension should be checked and set to 8.5” (22 cm).
Mounting Feet
Tools needed: 2 ft. level,
¾” wrench (2 cm)
If the treadmill wobbles or seems unstable, mounting feet must be checked. Using the level, check
both ends of the treadmill. Loosen the tensioning nut and turn the foot until it is at the correct level.
Tighten the tensioning nut.
Note: When moving the treadmill, the frame may flex. If the treadmill wobbles, push the handrail to
one side or the other. This may straighten the frame without needing to adjust the mounting feet.
