Belt/Deck/Roller Lubrication
The mat/deck friction may play a major role in the function and life of your treadmill and that is why we
recommend you constantly lubricate this friction point to prolong the useful life of your treadmill. Lubrication
is provided with this unit. You should apply lubrication after approximately the first 50 hours of operation. We
recommend lubrication of the deck according to the following timetable:
o
Light use (less than 3 hours per week) every 6 months
o
Medium use (3-5 hours a week) every 3 months
o
Heavy use (more than 5 hours per week) every 6-8 weeks
See below procedures for lubricating:
1. Use a soft, dry cloth to wipe the area between the belt and deck.
2. Spread lubricant onto the inside surface of belt and deck evenly (make sure the machine is turned
off and power is disconnected).
3.
Periodically lubricate the front and rear rollers to keep them at their peak performance. If the
treadmill belt/deck/roller is kept reasonably clean it is possible to expect over 1200 hours before
relubricating is necessary.
4. How to check the running mat for proper lubrication:
1. Disconnect the main power supply.
2. Fold the treadmill up into the storage position.
3. Feel the underside surface of the running mat.
If the surface is slick when touched, then no further lubrication is needed.
If the surface is dry to the touch, apply a suitable silicone lubricant.
We recommend that you use a silicone based spray to lubricate your Lifespan treadmill. This can be
purchased directly from us or any hardware store.
