Belt/Deck Lubrication Procedure
Do not lubricate with other than lubricants which are suitable for
treadmills. Your treadmill comes with one tube of lubricant and extra
tubes can be ordered directly from your authorized dealer. There are
commercially available lube kits.
These kits come with an application wand that makes the application of
lube easier. The proper kit should be silicon based, NOT paraffin wax.
Keeping the deck lubricated at the recommended intervals ensures the longest life possible for your
treadmill. If the lubricant dries out, the friction between the belt and deck rises and places undue
stress on the drive motor, drive belt and electronicmotor control board, which could result in
catastrophic failure of these expensive components. Failure to lubricate the deck at regular intervals
may void the warranty. The belt & deck come pre-lubricated and subsequent lubrication should
beperformed every 180 hours of use. The console has a built inlubrication reminder indicator that
lights every 180 hours of use.
Use the Lubricant to lubricate the deck beneath the belt. If you can reachunder the belt approximately
6” on each side, use the following procedure: Unplug the electrical cord. At the middle of the deck, lift
up on the belt and reach under with the tube of lubricant. Squirt most of the lubricant on the deck
surface.Repeat the process on the opposite side. Plug the electrical cord back into the outlet and walk
on the belt at a moderate speed for five minutes.
If unable to perform the above procedure, it will be necessary to loosen the walking belt. Using the 6
mm Allen wrench supplied, loosen the two rear roller adjustment bolts -- located in the rear end caps
–
enough to get your hand under the belt (5
–10 turns). Make sure to loosen both bolts the same
amount of turns and also remember how many turns, because when finished you will need to tighten
the bolts back to the point they were before.
Once the belt is loose, wipe the deck with a clean lint free cloth to remove any dirt. Apply the whole
tube of lubricant onto the deck surface about 45 cm (18 inches) from the motor cover. Squeeze out the
contents of the tube across the deck (parallel to the motor cover) in about a one-foot line, like
toothpaste on a toothbrush. The one-footline should be in the middle of the deck at approximately
equal distance from both side edges of the belt. You want the lubricant to be applied about the spot
that your feet would hit the belt as you arewalking. This should be about 18 inches from the motor
cover, but you may want to walk on the treadmill before loosening the belt to note where your feet land
on the belt. If you mostly use the treadmill for running, the spot where your feet land may be different
from walking. Once the lubricant is applied, tighten the rear roller bolts the same amount of turns as
when you loosened them. Run the treadmill at about 5 kmph (3 mph) without walking on it for about a
minute or two to make sure the belt stays in the middle of the deck. If the belt tracksto one side then
follow the belt tracking instructions to remedy. Now the deck is lubricated andyou should walk, not run,
on the treadmill immediately for at least 5 minutes to ensure the lubricant is evenly distributed. If you
purchase a silicone based lube kit, follow the instruction that comes with it to apply the lubrication.
