TO SETTING TREAD-BELT TRACKING
A 6 mm Allen wrench is provided for this adjustment. Make
tracking adjustments on the left side bolt. Set belt speed at 3
mph. Be aware that a small adjustment can make a dramatic
difference which may not be apparent right away.
If the belt is too close to the left side, then turn the bolt only a 1/4
turn to the right (clockwise) and wait a few minutes for the belt to
adjust itself.
Continue to make 1/4 turns until the belt stabilizes in the center of the running deck.
If the belt is too close to the right side, turn the bolt counter-clockwise. The belt may require periodic tracking adjustment
depending on use and walking/running characteristics. Some users may affect tracking differently. Expect to make
adjustments as required to center the tread-belt. Adjustments will become less of a maintenance concern as the belt is used.
Proper belt tracking is an owner responsibility common with all treadmills.
ATTENTION:
DAMAGE TO THE RUNNING BELT RESULTING FROM IMPROPER TRACKING / TENSION ADJUSTMENTS
IS NOT COVERED UNDER THE WARRANTY.

BELT/DECK LUBRICATION

Keeping the deck lubricated at the recommended intervals ensures the longest life possible for your treadmill. If the lubricant
dries out, the friction between the belt and deck rises and places undue stress on the drive motor, drive belt and electronic
motor control board, which could result in catastrophic failure of these expensive components. Failure to lubricate the deck
at regular intervals may void the warranty. The belt and deck come pre-lubricated and subsequent lubrication should be
performed every 180 hours of use.
The belt & deck come pre-lubricated. The console has a built in lubrication reminder indicator that lights every 180 hours of
use. To lubricate the deck with the tube of lubricant supplied it will be necessary to loosen the walking belt. Using the 6 mm
Allen wrench supplied, loosen the two rear roller adjustment bolts -- located in the rear end caps – enough to get your hand
under the belt (5 –10 turns). Make sure to loosen both bolts the same amount of turns and also remember how many turns,
because when finished you will need to tighten the bolts back to the point they were before.
Once the belt is loose, wipe the deck with a clean lint free cloth to remove any dirt. Apply the whole tube of lubricant onto the
deck surface about 45 cm (18 inches)
to the motor cover) in about a one-foot line, like toothpaste on a toothbrush. The one-foot line should be in the middle of the
deck at approximately equal distance from both side edges of the belt. You want the lubricant to be applied about the spot
that your feet would hit the belt as you are walking. This should be about
may want to walk on the treadmill before loosening the belt to note where your feet land on the belt. If you mostly use the
treadmill for running, the spot where your feet land may be different from walking.
Once the lubricant is applied, tighten the rear roller bolts the same amount of turns as when you loosened them. Run the
treadmill at about 5 kmph (3 mph)
the deck. If the belt tracks to one side then follow the belt tracking instructions to remedy. Now the deck is lubricated and you
should walk, not run, on the treadmill immediately for at least 5 minutes to ensure the lubricant is evenly distributed. If you
purchase a silicone based Lube-N-Walk kit, follow the instructions that come with it to apply the lubrication.
