    1. INTRODUCTION The RTM 600 is the only treadmill to offer a true zero starting speed, 1/10 mph speed increments over a range of 0-10 mph, plus powered incline and decline in both forward and reverse direc- tions. Extremely versatile, it’s perfect for exercise with acute post-operative, neuro, pediatric, car- diopulmonary, respiratory, seniors and orthopedic/sports medicine patients in need of strength- ening and aerobic conditioning.

Be sure to adhere to the hours of usage guidelines in Figure 8.3.
  • Page 23: Daily Maintenance

    Quarterly MaIntenance lubricate treadbelt and slider deck The Biodex Lubricant Kit is designed to reduce friction between the treadbelt and the slider deck. It is required for all institutional treadmills. Proper and timely application of the lubricant will prevent premature failures due to excessive wear and load. Items affected by inadequate lubrica- tion are the treadbelt, slider deck, motor, and motor controller.
  • Page 24: Annually Or Every 1,000 Hours

    Using the large syringe provided, squirt one-half tube of the lubricant underneath the center of the treadbelt. Walk 10 steps on the RTM 600 at a speed of 1.0 mph. This will moisten an 8” track underneath the center of the entire treadbelt.
  • Page 25 CAUTION: Before testing treadbelt tension as described below, turn the RTM 600 OFF and unplug the system. Moving parts on the RTM 600 can cause serious injury. Do not attempt to determine treadbelt tension while the belt is moving.
  • Page 26 If belt hesitates during heel strikes, additional tightening is required. To check over tight- ening, set RTM 600 to .5 mph and, while holding rail, resist until belt stops. If drive roller continues to rotate with the belt stopped, further adjustment is not necessary. If drive roller stops when belt is stopped, belt is too tight.

    NOTE: The above faults indicate an issue with your treadmill. For fault 64-Safety Lanyard Removed, verify lanyard is still attached in its proper location. For all other faults, please contact Biodex Support Services department and provide the fault code. You will be instructed on how to proceed.
