Running Belt Maintenance - CYBEX 625T Owner's Manual

To clean the motor components, you must loosen the two Phillips head screws that hold the motor
cover in place. Lift the cover straight up; the screws will stay in place. Use a vacuum attachment
or hand vacuum to clean the exposed elevation assembly, drive motor, lower electronics and the
surrounding areas.
Fan and Heat Sink — Vacuum the fan and heat sink area of the motor controller.
Also use a dry cloth for the areas that you can not reach with the vacuum cleaner. If the machine has
not been used for some time or is excessively dirty, use a dry cloth to wipe all exposed areas.
Carefully raise the rear of the treadmill and roll it back from its present position to vacuum the floor
area underneath the unit. When finished, return the treadmill to its normal position.
Contact Heart Rate Grips — Contaminants, such as hand lotions, oils or body powder, may come
off on the contact heart rate grips. These can reduce sensitivity and interfere with the heart rate
signal. It is recommended that the user have clean hands when using the contact heart rate. Clean
the grips using a cloth dampened with a cleaning solution containing rubbing alcohol.

Running Belt Maintenance

Belt and Deck — Wipe the belt surface and the deck area with a clean dry towel to minimize
the effect of friction between the deck and the running belt. This should be done often to prevent
premature wear of the deck, running belt, and the drive motor system. See the Service Schedule at
the end of this chapter.
The running belt may become loose and slip on the drive roller with each foot plant. If it does, follow
the Tension and Center the Belt procedure below. See the Service Schedule in this chapter for a
minimum schedule for checking the belt tension.
Tension and Center the Belt — If the belt is slipping under each step perform this procedure:
