Maintenance
Proper maintenance is very important to ensure a faultless and operational condition of the treadmill.
Improper maintenance can cause damage to the treadmill or shorten the life of the product and exceed the
LIMITED WARRANTY coverage.
Important: Never use abrasives or solvents to clean the treadmill. To prevent damage to the computer,
keep liquids away and keep it out of direct sunlight.
All parts of the treadmill must be checked and tightened regularly. Worn out parts must be replaced
immediately.
BELT ADJUSTMENT
You may need to adjust the running belt during the first few weeks of use. All running belts are properly set at
the factory, however it may stretch off the centre after use. Stretching is normal during the break-in period.
Also when you run, you may push off harder with one foot than with the other which can cause the belt to
move off-centre. This is normal and the running belt will centre when nobody is on the running belt. If the
running belt remains consistently off-centre then you will need to centre the running belt manually.
If the running belt feels as though it is slipping or hesitating when you plant your foot during a workout, the
tension on the running belt may have to be increased.
To centre the running belt or adjust the tension of the running belt, simply follow the instructions below.
Start the treadmill without anybody on the running belt, press the “Speed +” button until the speed reaches
6km/h. Observe whether the running belt is leaning toward the right or left side of the deck. If it is towards the
left side of the deck, use 6 Allen Key (104) to turn the left adjustment bolt clockwise ¼ of a turn and let the
running belt adjust to its new position. If it is still moving towards the left side of the deck continue to turn the
adjustment bolt in ¼ turn increments until the running belt is centred. If it is towards the right side of the deck,
use 6 Allen Key (104) to turn the right adjustment bolt clockwise ¼ of a turn and let the running belt adjust to
its new position. If it is still moving towards the right side of the deck continue to turn the adjustment bolt in ¼
turn increments until the running belt is centred. Once the belt has been centred, increase the speed to
12km/h to verify that it is running smoothly. If the above procedure is unsuccessful in resolving the issue then
you may need to increase the belt tension.
Note: Be careful not to tighten the running belt tension too much as you can create excessive
pressure on the front and rear roller bearings. An excessively tightened running belt may damage the
roller bearings that would result in bearing noise from the front and rear rollers.
