LUBRICATION INSTRUCTIONS
Why lubricate?
Your treadmill comes pre-lubricated from our factory. As the
lubrication dissipates, the friction between the running belt and
the deck will rise and place undue stress on the drive motor, drive
belt and electronic motor control board, which, over time, will result in
catastrophic failure of these important and expensive components.

BELT TENSION AND ALIGNMENT ADJUSTMENT
Proper belt adjustment is important for smooth and safe operation of the treadmill. If the belt is too
loose, you will feel a slight hesitation each time you take a step. The adjustment screws must be
tightened evenly in order to adjust the belt properly. The adjustment screws are located at the rear
of the treadmill in the end caps.
Both adjustment screws should be tightened 1/4 turn in a clockwise direction with a wrench and the
belt checked for slipping after each adjustment. If the belt continues to slip, repeat this process until
the belt stops slipping. Make sure to only turn the adjustment screws 1/4 turn each time until the
slipping stops. This will insure that you do not over-tighten the rollers. Over-tightening the rollers
may cause serious damage to the treadmill.
Belt Alignment
If the belt tracks too close to one side, loosen the adjustment screw on the opposite side,
turning it counterclockwise 1/4 turn. Restart the treadmill and run it at 4 mph / 8 kph for 1 to 2
minutes to ensure the belt will stay in the center. Repeat the procedure if necessary.
If noises develop or malfunctions occur, stop using treadmill and contact BODYCRAFT
Lubrication of the deck is very important to your treadmill
A.
Lubricate your running deck area every 6 months or when belt is
surging / tripping breaker to maintain optimal performance.
B. Wipe entire deck surface with a clean, lint free cloth.
C. While lifting the side of the running belt, gently position the
nozzle between the running belt and the running deck from the
front of the treadmill to the rear. NOTE: If you lubricate too
much, the running belt may slip or liquid may flow out from
the machine. Only use 1/4 of bottle (.5 oz) per lubrication.
D. Repeat the above procedure on the other side of the belt.
E. Then walk on the treadmill from front to back it for at least 2-3
minutes to let the lubricant spread evenly across the running
deck and underside of the running belt.
F. Check the belt whether it is off-center or slips. If it does, go to
page 16 to center the belt or adjust the belt tightness until the belt
has been tightened properly.
G. Wipe off any excess lube that appears past running belt area.
NOTE:
Lubricant is necessary when the deck becomes dry to maintain
your treadmill's warranty and keep in a good working condition.
