Maintenance
Proper maintenance is very important to ensure your treadmill is always in top working condition. Improper
maintenance could cause damage or shorten the life of your treadmill and exceed the LIMITED WARRANTY
coverage.

Important:

After each workout:
Wipe off the console and other treadmill surfaces with a clean, water dampened soft
cloth to remove excess perspiration
4.
Weekly:
Use of a treadmill mat is recommended for ease of cleaning. Dirt from your shoes contacts the
belt and eventually makes it to underneath the treadmill.
Vacuum the underneath treadmill regularly.
Belt Adjustment:
Belt adjustment and tension performs two functions: adjustment for tension and centering. The running belt has
been adjusted properly at the factory. However transportation, uneven flooring or other unpredicted reasons
could cause the belt to shift off center resulting in the belt rubbing with the plastic side rail or end caps and
possibly causing damage. To adjust the belt back to its proper position please follows the directions below:
1. Walking belt has shifted to the left:
First unplug the power cord from the surge protector. Using the hex key provided, turn the left rear roller
adjustment bolt 1/4 turn in the clockwise direction. Plug the power cord back into the surge protector and run the
treadmill at 2.5 kph. You should see the belt start to correct itself, moving back towards the center. Repeat the
above procedure until the walking belt is centered. It may be necessary to set walking belt tension once you have
completed this procedure if the belt feels like it is slipping while walking. Refer below to the “Walking belt slipping”
instructions.
2. Walking belt has shifted to the right:
First unplug the power cord from the surge protector. Using the hex key provided, turn the right rear roller
adjustment bolt 1/4 turn in the clockwise direction. Plug the power cord back into the surge protector and run the
treadmill at 2.5 kph. You should see the belt start to correct itself, moving back towards the centre. Repeat the
above procedure until the walking belt is centered. It may be necessary to set walking belt tension once you have
completed this procedure if the belt feels like it is slipping while walking. Refer below to the “Walking belt slipping”
instructions.
3. Walking belt is slipping:
First unplug the power cord from the surge protector. Using the hex key provided, turn both the left and right rear
roller adjustment bolts the same distance, usually a 1/4 turn in the clockwise direction. Plug the power cord back
into the surge protector and run the treadmill at 2.5 kph. You should now walk on the belt to determine if the belt
is still slipping. Repeat the above procedure until the walking belt is not slipping. The tension should be just tight
enough not to slip
WARNING! Do not over tighten rollers! This will cause premature roller bearing failure!
