GENERAL MAINTENANCE
Daily Maintenance
As required, clean all exterior surfaces, upholstery and restraining straps. Specialized vinyl
cleaners or protectants are recommended for upholstery and cushions. Otherwise, use a solution
of warm water and mild detergent.
NOTE: DO NOT use solutions containing ammonia.
Hardware computer components should be wiped clean as needed using a soft rag dampened
with alcohol.
Quarterly: Lubricate Treadbelt and Slider Deck
The Biodex Lubricant Kit is designed to reduce friction between the treadbelt and the slider
deck. It is required for all institutional treadmills. Proper and timely application of the lubricate
will prevent premature failures due to excessive wear and load. Items affected by inadequate
lubrication are the treadbelt, slider deck, motor, and motor controller.
Annually or Every 1,000 Hours: Reverse Exact-Track Bed
Reverse the Exact-Track bed. The treadmill bed is double sided, allowing it to be reversed and used
over. Once both sides have been used, the bed must be replaced.
Annually or Every 1,000 Hours: Replace Treadbelt
Inspect treadmill for cracks or tears. If none are found, continue to use. If any cracks or tears are
apparent, replace treadbelt.
