SIX MAINTENANCE
Lubricating
The running belt must be lubricated with specially configured methyl silicone oil after used for a
period of time.
1. Advice:
When use time a week is less than 3 hours, it should be lubricated once in five months.
When use time a week is between 4-7 hours, it should be lubricated once in two months.
When use time a week is more than 7 hours, it should be lubricated once in one month.
It can’t be over
-lubricated. It is not the more lubricant, the better. Remember: proper lubricating
is the important fa
ctor to increase the treadmill’s service time.
2. Lubricating methods
For the methods to examine whether it is needed lubricant, you only need catch up the running
belt and touch the central part of the back of the belt with hand as nearly as possibly. If the belt
is with silicon resin (a bit sense of dampness) inside, this means no lubricant is needed; if the
running board is dry and you feel no silicon resin inside, this means lubricant is
A.
Steps for coating the running board with lubricant: (see the picture)
B.
Stop the rotation of the running belt and fold the machine.
C.
Pick up the belt of the back of the body frame:
Stretch the oil holder as nearly as possible into the moving place of the belt, coat the inner side
of the belt with silicone oil and coat both sides of the belt with silicone resin, and then operate
the treadmill at the speed of 1K M/H so as to evenly coat the silicone resin; and step on the belt
from left to right for a few minutes, then the silicone resin will be completely absorbed by the belt.
3. Running belt tension adjustment
All treadmills’ belts should be adjusted before leaving the factory and after the installation,
however, after it is used for a period, looseness may occur. For example: when users are running,
it may occur pause and slip, if which happens, adjust the belt and bolts synchronously from both
the left and right side in a clockwise direction and with semicircle as the unit; if the running belt is
too loose, it may occur slip between the belt and the roller when treading on the belt; but if too
tight, it will be easy to increase the motor load and damage motor, running belt, roller, etc.
