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 than 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.
If the surface is dry to the touch, apply a suitable silicone lubricant.
We recommend you use a silicone based spray to lubricate your Lifespan Treadmill.
This can be purchased from your local sports Retailer or a local hardware store.
