OWNER'S MANUAL • T4F/T5F
M A I N T E N A N C E
The equipment is safe to use only when
periodically maintained and inspected for faults
and wear.
C AU TI O N !
Do not attempt any
servicing or adjustment other than those described
in this manual. Any other servicing must be
performed by an authorized service representative.
Check the tightness of all fi xing screws once a year.
Do not overtighten. Defective components must
be immediately replaced; the equipment must not
be operated with any defective components.
LUBRICATING THE RUNNING DECK
Lubrication is the most important service activity
for the treadmill. This is absolutely essential, if the
friction of the running deck increases noticeably
or the motor begins to heat up; increased friction
is indicated by jerky movement of the belt.
Insuffi cient lubrication will cause the belt, running
deck and motor to wear out and break. The need
for re-lubrication depends to a great extent on the
running styles and weight of the user: heavy user
weight and slow speed put particular strain on the
device and therefore demand greater lubrication.
The running deck requires periodic lubrication.
With average usage (30 minute workout session 3
times a week), lubricate every four to six months.
You may adjust the timing of the lubrication based
on the intensity of the treadmill use level. To check
the lubrication level, simply lift the running belt,
and put your hand as far into the center of the
belt as you can reach. If your hand shows signs of
lubricant (some wetness), then it does not need
additional lubrication. If the board feels dry and
there is very little evidence of lubricant on your
hand, then additional lubrication should be added
as instructed:
1.
Stop running belt so belt seam is located on the
top and in the center of the deck.
2 .
Insert nozzle into spray head of lubricant can.
3.
Lift running belt.
4 .
Position nozzle between the belt and the board
approximately 200 mm (8") from the front of the
treadmill.
5.
Apply T-Lube from the front to the rear of the
treadmill on each side of the treadmill. Try to reach
the spray as far into the center of the running deck
as possible.
6 .
The treadmill is instantly ready for use.
N OTE !
Lubricate your treadmill only with T-Lube
lubricant. Contact your local Tunturi distributor
for supplies of T-Lube.
CLEANING THE TREADMILL
Wipe the treadmill surfaces, especially the
handlebars and meter from dust with a damp cloth
or towel. Do not use solvents. Use a small vacuum
nozzle to carefully vacuum around all visible
components (belt, running deck, side rails etc.).
To clean the underside of the treadmill, lift the
running deck to the storage position.
N OTE !
Also keep the area near the treadmill clean.
While in use, the treadmill gathers dust that may
cause problems in the operation of the equipment.
ALIGNING THE RUNNING BELT
Monitor belt tracking during exercise and make
adjustments as needed. The belt should run in the
center of the treadmill. Alignment is not usually
needed, provided
•
the treadmill is placed on an even, solid
and horizontal surface and the belt is correctly
tensioned
•
the alignment of the belt is correct
It is, however, possible for the belt to be pushed to
one side due to the user's running style (e.g. more
weight on one foot). The alignment of the belt is
adjusted by turning the two bolts at the back of the
treadmill.
Align the belt according to the following
instructions:
1.
Turn the power switch on and increase the
treadmill's speed to 5 km/h (3 mph).
2
. If the belt drifts to the left, turn the left
adjustment bolt 1/4 turn clockwise and the right
adjustment bolt 1/8 turn anti-clockwise. If the belt
drifts to the right, turn the right adjustment bolt
1/4 turn clockwise and the left adjustment bolt 1/4
turn anti-clockwise.
3.
If the belt remains centered the adjustment is
correct. If not, continue to make small adjustments
as above until the belt is correctly aligned. If the
belt is allowed run across to one side for long
periods of time the edges of the belt may be
damaged and the treadmill may not continue to
operate correctly. Any damage to the belt caused
by the lack of necessary adjustment will not be
covered by the warranty.
ADJUSTING THE BELT TENSION
The belt must be tensioned if it begins to slip on
the rollers. In normal use, however, keep the belt
as loose as possible! The belt tension is adjusted by
turning the same screws as used for aligning the
running belt. If turning the screws will not effect
the belt tension, please contact your local Tunturi
dealer.
1.
Increase the treadmill's speed to 5 km/h (3
mph).
2 .
Turn both adjustment screws an equal amount,
1/4 turn clockwise.
3.
Try to slow the belt down by holding onto the
