GENERAL MAINTENANCE
WARNING: Always unplug your treadmill prior to cleaning in order to avoid
electrical hazards or shock.
Belt & Deck
Your treadmill uses a very high-efficient low-friction deck. Performance is maximized when the deck
is kept as clean as possible. Use a soft, damp cloth or paper towel, and wipe the edge of the belt and
the area between the belt edge and the frame. Also, reach as far as practical directly under the belt
edge. This should be done once a month to extend belt and bed life. A mild soap and water solution
along with a nylon scrub brush will clean the top of the textured belt. Allow to dry before using.
Belt Dust
This occurs during normal break-in or until the belt stabilizes. Sometimes the black dust from
The belt will appear on the floor behind the treadmill. This is normal.
General Cleaning
Dirt, dust, and pet hair can block air inlets and accumulate on the running belt. Please vacuum
underneath your treadmill monthly to prevent excess build-up of dirt that can get sucked up and get
into the inner workings under the motor cover. Once a year, you should remove the black motor hood
and vacuum out dirt that may accumulate. UNPLUG POWER CORD BEFORE THIS TASK.
Belt Adjustments
Tread-belt Tension Adjustment - Belt tension is not critical for most users. It is very important though,
for joggers and runners to provide a smooth, steady running surface. Adjustment must be made from
the rear roller with the 6 mm Allen wrench (132) provided in the parts package. The adjustment bolts
are located at the end of the step rails, as shown in the diagram below. Note: Adjustment is through
small hole in the end cap. Tracking / Tension Adjustment Tracking / Tension Adjustment.
Tighten the rear roller only enough to prevent
slippage at the front roller. Turn the tread-belt
tension adjusting bolts 1/4 turn each and inspect for
proper tension by walking on the belt and making
sure it is not slipping or hesitating with each step.
When an adjustment is made to the belt tension,
you must be sure to turn the bolts on both sides
evenly or the belt could start tracking to one side
instead of running in the middle of the deck.
DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN
–
Over tightening will cause belt damage and premature bearing failure. If
you tighten the belt a lot and it still slips, the problem could actually be the drive belt -located under
the motor cover - that connects the motor to the front roller. If that belt is loose, it feels similar to the
walking belt being loose. Tightening the motor belt should be done by a trained service person.
