BELT/DECK LUBRICATION
First, you want to clean between the belt and deck to remove any debris that may be
trapped. Use a clean, non-fraying rag, t-shirt, or light towel. Halfway between the end of
the treadmill and motor cover, shove the garment under the belt until you can grasp it on
both sides of the belt. Drag the garment the length of the entire belt 1-2 times. Remove
the garment.
Do not lubricate with anything other than approved lubricant. Your treadmill comes with
one tube of “Lube” and extra tubes can be ordered directly from or your authorized dealer.
You may also use a Lube-n-Walk kit that can be purchased through both aforementioned
sellers.
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 electronic motor 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 be performed
every 90 hours of use or if you notice that the deck is dry. It is recommended that you
reach between the belt and deck to verify there is lubrication present, every other month.
If you check and there isn’t any lubrication present, follow the procedure below even
though the “Lube” indicator isn’t lit on the console. Otherwise, lubricate when the console’s
lubrication reminder lights after 90 hours of use. Use the following procedure to apply
the silicone lubricant:
1. Turn the power switch off and unplug the power cord from the wall outlet.
2. Measure 18” from the edge of the motor cover; kneel down and reach under the belt
approximately 4- 6” from one edge. Squirt a line of lubricant about 1/8” wide x 15”
long in an “S” pattern perpendicular to the motor cover.
3. Repeat the process on the opposite side.
4. Plug the electrical cord back into the outlet and turn the power switch on.
5. Walk on the belt at a moderate speed for five minutes to evenly distribute the
silicone lube.
6. If the “Lube” message appears on the console, perform the following procedure to
reset the message:
