Troubleshooting If you have a problem with your treadmill, before you do anything else please check that all the cables have been connected correctly. Loose cables are very common and many problems can be solved by making sure the cables are properly connected. The following table details the most common problems and how to fix them.
Care & Maintenance Placement in your Home This treadmill should not be placed outdoors, in a garage or an outbuilding. Keep the treadmill in a dry place with as little temperature variation as possible. We recommend placing a mat beneath the treadmill, to protect both the treadmill and your flooring.

Care & Maintenance Lubrication An insufficiently lubricated deck will cause the belt, running deck and motor to wear out much quicker. How often you should lubricate depends on usage, we recommend the following: • Light use (less than 3 hours a week) - every 8 months • Medium use (3 to 5 hours a week) - every 4 months • Heavy user (more than 5 hours a week) - every 2 months Keeping the deck lubricated is the most important activity you can carry out to prolong the life of your treadmill.

Adjusting Running Mat Alignment The alignment of the mat has been pre-set at the factory, however, the mat can be caused to run out-of-line by a user’s running style (eg, more weight on one foot), or if it is placed on an uneven surface - so it may need adjusting from time to time.
