Care, cleaning & maintenance
WARNING
Turn off your training device before you carry out care, cleaning, maintenance, repair or similar work and remove
the power cord. Always check that the equipment is completely disconnected from the mains and switched off
before starting work. Only reconnect you device when all work is completed and your device has been completely
put back together.
Before first use or after a long break from training
Make sure that the treadmill is standing firmly on the ground, there should be no objects on or underneath the device. Make
that there is an even film of lubricating (silicone) on the running deck. If this is not the case, then apply a film of silicone
provided by the distributor.
Maintenance & Cleaning Intervals:
After each workout, clean the treadmill with a damp cloth to remove any perspiration and / or other liquid residues. Under
no circumstances use solvents for this purpose. Dry the cleaned areas thoroughly.
Checking the lubrication of the running belt: once a week
If you notice that there is no longer sufficient lubrication, it must immediately be lubricated and checked more often. If the
treadmill has a folding mechanism and has been standing upright for a long time, check whether there is still enough lubri-
cation.
Checking the belt run: once a week
The operation of the running belt must be checked regularly. If you notice that the belt is running to one side, it must be
corrected immediately. Please read the corresponding section this Manual.
Cleaning the Motor Compartment: once a month
To clean the motor compartment, loosen the engine cover bolts and lift it up.
WARNING: Only do this when the device is switched off and the mains cable is removed. Vacuum the visible dust
with a small nozzle of a vacuum cleaner. Do not use under any circumstances use detergent or compressed air.
Checking the fixings: once a month
Check the screws, bolts and nuts at least once a month and tighten them, if necessary.
Why is maintenance of my treadmill so important?
ENG
In order for you to have long-term enjoyment with your treadmill, it is important to do some basic maintenance regularly and
thoroughly. The intervals required for this work depend very much on how much the device is used. For this reason, the
maintenance may need to be carried out at much shorter intervals than the ones recommended.
What can happen if there is a lack of maintenance?
There is friction between the running belt and the running deck when in use. Any kind of friction means wear and thus
reduces the life of your training device. By lubrication with silicone between the belt and deck the friction is reduced, thus in-
creasing the life. If the treadmill runs dry, the running board will overheat. The surface of the running board and the running
belt will both be damaged. The friction can become so high that it leads to a static charge on the frame which can discharge
through the body on contact. This is not only unpleasant, but can also destroy the electronics of the treadmill.
Why do I have to clean the engine room?
Movement of the running belt and ventilation of the motor, draws in dust from the environment. The dust gathers both under
and in the device which can lead eventually to the interior of the device becoming so dusty that it causes a short to electro-
nic components. To avoid this is, regular cleaning is necessary.
Damage caused by failure or lack of maintenance and care are excluded from the warranty and guarantee
The costs of repairing a training device which has not been properly maintained can quickly amount to several hundred
euros.
A high price that can be avoided by regular care and maintenance.
