Pay particular attention to the fixing knobs and make sure they are tight.
Always replace the mat if worn and any other defective parts.
If in doubt do not use the treadmill and contact our helpline.
TAKE CARE TO PROTECT CARPETS AND FLOOR in case of leakages. This product is a machine
that contains moving parts which have been greased / lubricated and could leak.

4 Belt/Deck/Roller Lubrication:

The mat/deck friction may play a major role in the function and life of your treadmill and that is why we
recommend you constantly lubricate this friction point to prolong the useful life of your treadmill.
Lubrication is provided with this unit. You should apply the enclosed lubrication after approximately the
first 50 hours of operation. We recommend lubrication of the deck according to the following timetable:
Light use (less that 3 hours per week) every 6 months
Medium use (3-5 hours a week) every 3 months
Heavy use (more than 5 hours per week) every 6-8 weeks.
See below procedures for lubricating:
1.
Use a soft, dry cloth to wipe the area between the belt and deck.
2.
Spread lubricant onto the inside surface of belt and deck evenly (make sure the machine is turned
off and power is disconnected).
3.
Periodically lubricate the front and rear rollers to keep them at there peak performance.
If the treadmill belt/deck/roller is kept reasonably clean it is possible to expect over 1200 hours before
additional re-lubing is necessary.

5 How to check the running mat for proper lubrication:

1.
Disconnect the main power supply.
2.
Fold the treadmill up into the storage position.
3.
Feel the back surface of the running mat.
If the surface is slick when touched, then no further lubrication is needed.
