a dry place with as little temperature variation as possible. We recommend placing a mat beneath
the treadmill, to protect both the treadmill and your flooring.

Always place the equipment in a dry environment.
Use a warm, damp cloth to keep the product clean.
No wet cleaning of electrical components. Unplug before any care and maintenance.
The safety level of the equipment can be maintained only if it is regularly examined for damage
and wear. This includes any ropes, pulleys, nuts, bolts, moving parts, bushes, chains, wheels,
bearings & connection points etc.
Ensure that you inspect the product regularly-at least once a week is recommended.
Ensure that all fixings are tight before use.

An insufficiently lubricated deck will cause the belt, running deck and motor to wear out much
quicker. How often you should lubricate depends on usage, we recommend the following:

•
Medium use (3 to 5 hours a week) –every 4 months
