GENERAL MAINTENANCE
Belt/Deck
Your treadmill uses a very high-efcient low-friction deck. Performance is maximized when the deck is kept as clean as
possible. Use a soft, damp cloth, or paper towel, wipe the edge of the belt and the area between the belt edge and the
frame. Also reach as far as practical directly under the belt edge. This should be done once a month to extend belt and
deck life. A mild soap and water solution along with a nylon scrub brush will clean the top of the textured belt. Allow to
dry before using. This occurs during normal break-in or until the belt stabilizes. Sometimes the black dust from the belt
will appear on the oor behind the treadmill, this is normal.
General Cleaning
Dirt, dust, and pet hair can block air inlets and accumulate on the running belt. Please vacuum underneath your treadmill
on a monthly basis to prevent excess build-up of dirt that can get sucked up and get into the inner workings under the
motor cover. Once a year, you should remove the black motor hood and vacuum out dirt that may accumulate.
UNPLUG POWER CORD BEFORE THIS TASK.
Belt Adjustments
Tread-belt Tension Adjustment - Belt tension is not critical for most users. It is very important though for joggers and
runners in order to provide a smooth, steady running surface. Adjustment must be made from the rear roller with the 6
mm Allen wrench provided in the parts package. The adjustment bolts are located at the end of the step rails as shown
in the diagram below.
Tighten the rear roller only enough to prevent slippage at the front roller. Turn the tread-belt tension adjusting bolts 1/4
turn each and inspect for proper tension by walking on the belt and making sure it is not slipping or hesitating with each
step. When an adjustment is made to the belt tension, you must be sure to turn the bolts on both sides evenly or the
belt could start tracking to one side instead of running in the middle of the deck.
