ARE THE SOUNDS MY TREADMILL MAKES NORMAL?
All treadmills make a certain type of thumping noise due to the belt riding over the
rollers, especially new treadmills. This noise will diminish over time, although may not
totally go away. Over time, the belt will stretch, causing the belt to ride smoother over
the rollers.
WHY IS THE TREADMILL I HAD DELIVERED LOUDER THAN THE ONE AT
THE STORE?
All fitness products seem quieter in a large store showroom because there is generally
more background noise than in your home. Also, there will be less reverberation on a
carpeted concrete floor than on a wood overlay floor. Sometimes a heavy rubber mat
will help reduce reverberation through the floor. If a fitness product is placed close to a
wall, there will be more reflected noise.
WHEN SHOULD I BE WORRIED ABOUT A NOISE?
As long as the sounds your treadmill makes are no louder that a normal conversational
tone of voice, it is considered normal noise. If your treadmill is louder than this, Please
contact your local dealer for further assistance.

WHAT KIND OF ROUTINE MAINTENANCE IS REQUIRED?
We use sealed bearings throughout our treadmill so lubrication is not needed. The most
important maintenance step is to simply wipe your perspiration off the treadmill after each
use.
HOW DO I CLEAN MY HORIZON FITNESS TREADMILL?
Clean with soap and water cleaners only. Never use solvents on plastic parts.
