Belt Lubrication
Use only 100% silicone and avoid using aerosol silicone sprays which include
additives and petroleum distillates. One ounce of silicone should be used for
each application. LifeSpan offers 100% silicone lubricant that can be ordered
at www.LifeSpanFitness.com.
The walking belt should be lubricated with one fluid ounce every 50 hours of
use or three months, whichever comes first.
To lubricate, unplug your treadmill.
1.
Power off your treadmill and unplug it from the power outlet.
2.
Starting toward the front (motor end) of your treadmill, slide your hand
underneath the belt and create separation between the deck and belt.
3.
Slide the lube tube as close to the center of the deck as possible.
4.
While gently applying controlled pressure to the squeeze bottle, apply
approximately ½ oz (1/8 of bottle) to the underside of belt. Apply as close
to the middle of the belt as possible, since this is where your feet make
contact.
5.
Move the belt with your hands or feet so that you apply a full ounce on
the entire inner surface of the belt.
6.
Plug in treadmill, power it on, and run the belt without walking on it at
3 mph for 3 minutes to disperse treadmill lubricant evenly.
When lubricating the belt,
make sure the treadmill is on
a surface that can be easily
Note:
cleaned. After lubricating
clean any excess silicone
off the walking surface of
the belt and side rails.
