TROUBLESHOOTING, CARE AND MAINTENANCE General Instructions ⚠ WARNING Do not make any improper changes to the equipment. CAUTION ⚠ Damaged or worn components may affect your safety and the life of the equipment. Therefore, immediately replace damaged or worn components. In such a case, contact the contract partner.
Care and Maintenance The most important maintenance measure is the care of the running mat. This includes adjustment, re tensioning and lubrication of the running mat. Damage resulting from insufficient or neglected care is not covered by the warranty. You should therefore carry out maintenance checks at regular intervals.
5.3.2 Re-tensioning the Running Mat If the running mat slips over the rollers during operation (if this is the case, there is a noticeable jerk during running), the running mat must be re tightened. In most cases, the slipping is caused by stretching of the mat through use. This is perfectly normal. NOTICE Re-tensioning is carried out using the same adjusting screws that are used for adjustment.
Maintenance and Inspection Calendar To avoid damage from body sweat, the equipment must be cleaned with a damp towel (no solvents!) after each training session. The following routine tasks must be performed at the specified intervals: Part Weekly Monthly Quarterly Half-yearly Yearly Display console...
RECOMMENDED ACCESSORIES To make your training experience even more efficient and pleasant, we recommend that you add suiting accessories to your fitness equipment. This could be a floor mat, for example, which makes your fitness equipment stand more securely and also protects the floor from falling sweat, but it could also be additional handrails on some treadmills or silicone spray to keep moving parts in good shape.
