Weslo CARDIO STRIDE 4.0, User Manual

MAINTENANCE

Regular maintenance is important for optimal per-

formance and to reduce wear. Inspect and properly 

tighten all parts each time the treadmill is used. 

Replace any worn parts immediately.

Regularly clean the treadmill and keep the walking 

belt clean and dry. Wipe exterior parts of the treadmill 

with a damp cloth and a small amount of mild soap. 

IMPORTANT: Do not spray liquids directly onto the 

treadmill. To avoid damage to the console, keep 

liquids away from the console. Then, thoroughly dry 

the treadmill with a soft towel.

LUBRICATING THE WALKING PLATFORM

Before the treadmill is used, the walking platform 

should be lubricated. Open the included lubricant 

packet. Reach under one side of the walking belt as far 

as you can, and apply half of the lubricant to the walk-

ing platform. Then, reach under the other side of the 

walking belt and apply the remaining lubricant. After 

you have applied the lubricant, walk on the tread-

mill for a few minutes to spread the lubricant.

TROUBLESHOOTING

Most treadmill problems can be solved by follow-

ing the simple steps below. Find the symptom that 

applies, and follow the steps listed. If further assis-

tance is needed, see the front cover of this manual.

SYMPTOM: THE CONSOLE DOES NOT FUNCTION 

PROPERLY

a.   Replace the batteries in the console (see assembly 

step 9 on page 10).

b.  

 Look under the left 

side of the Frame 

(10) and locate the 

Reed Switch (14). 

Next, locate the 

Magnet (22) on the 

Flywheel (23). Turn 

the Flywheel until the 

Magnet is aligned 

with the Reed Switch. 

Move the Reed 

Switch so that there 

is a 1/8" (3 mm) gap 

between the Reed 

Switch and the 

Magnet.

c.   Make sure that the handrail wire is plugged fully 

into the wire on the console (see assembly step 10 

on page 11).

d.   The console, like most electronics, is susceptible to 

static electricity build-up caused by certain types of 

clothing or by the operation of the treadmill. If the 

display is blank or gives incorrect readings, apply 

an anti-static spray to the handrail. Anti-static spray 

is available where laundry supplies are sold.
