Cleaning and maintenance

WARNING

• 

Before cleaning and maintenance, remove the 

mains plug from the wall socket.

• 

Do not use solvents to clean the equipment.

-

Do not block the ventilation openings. Keep the 

ventilation openings clear from dust, dirt and other 

obstructions.

-

Clean the equipment with a soft, absorbent cloth 

after each use.

-

Clean the visible parts of the equipment with a 

vacuum cleaner with a small suction nozzle

-

Regularly check that all screws and nuts are tight.

Belt and Running Deck 

Your treadmill uses a very high-efficient low-friction 

bed. Performance is maximized when the running deck 

is kept as clean as possible. Use a soft, damp cloth or 

paper towel to wipe the edge of the belt and the area 

between the belt edge and frame. Also reach as far as 

practical directly under the belt edge. This should be 

done once a month to extend belt and running deck 

life. Use water only - no cleaners or abrasives. A mild 

soap and water solution along with a nylon scrub brush 

will clean the top of the textured belt. Allow the belt to 

dry before using.

Lubrication (fig. F-4)

The running belt must be checked for lubrication 

condition regularly. Therefore the treadmill comes with 

a 300 hours reminder function. The “TIME WINDOW” 

will display “OIL” and will make an acoustic beeping 

sound every 10 seconds to remind you. Follow the 

below checking procedure and eliminate the “OIL” 

message and acoustic warning signal by pressing and 

hold the “STOP” button for at least 3 seconds during 

this warning signal.

CAUTION

•  We recommend to check the running belt 

lubrication at least once every month, as more 

factors than time can be effective to the lubricant 

conditions. 

• 

Only lubricate the running belt if necessary. If 

you apply too much lubricant, the running belt 

will slip easily due to lack of friction.

WARNING

• 

Before lubrication, remove the mains plug from 

the wall socket.

-

Stand steadily on the running belt.

-

Take hold of the front handlebar and push the 

running belt with your feet so that it slides back and 

forth. The running belt must move smoothly and 

evenly without making sound.

-

If the running belt does not move smoothly and 

evenly or if the running belt does not move at all, 

touch the underside of the running belt with your 

fingertips to check the lubrication:

•  If you feel lubrication or your fingertips are shiny, 

there is sufficient lubrication on the running belt.

•  If you do not feel lubrication or your fingertips 

are dusty or rough, apply lubricant (15-20 ml) 

in the middle of the running deck under the 

running belt and let the equipment operate at 

5km/h for at least 5 minutes.

• 

After lubrication, do not fold the equipment 

before having done a workout for 20 minutes 

with a speed of at least 5 km/h. The lubricant will 

be spread evenly over the running belt.

Belt Dust

This occurs during normal break-in or until the belt 

stabilizes. Wiping excess off with a damp cloth will 

minimize build-up.

General Cleaning

Dirt, dust, and pet hair can block air inlets and 

accumulate on the running belt. On a monthly basis: 

vacuum underneath your treadmill to prevent buildup. 

Twice a year, you should remove the black motor hood 

and vacuum out dirt that may accumulate. 

UNPLUG POWER CORD BEFORE THIS TASK.

Belt adjustments

Adjustment must be made from the rear roller. The 

adjustment bolts are located at the end of the step rails 

in the end caps.

-

Tighten the rear roller bolts (clockwise) only enough 

to prevent slippage at the front roller. Turn both 

running belt tension adjustment bolts in increments 

of 1/4 turn each and inspect for proper tension by 

walking on the belt at a low speed, making sure the 

belt does not slip. Keep tensioning the bolts until 

the belt stops slipping.

-

If you feel the belt is tight enough, but it still slips, 

the problem may be a loose Motor drive belt under 

the front cover.

-

Do Not Over-tighten

Over tightening will cause belt damage and 

premature bearing failure.

Running belt tracking adjustment

The performance of your treadmill is dependent on 

the frame running on a reasonably level surface. If 

the frame is not level, the front and back roller cannot 

run parallel, and constant belt adjustment may be 

necessary.
