NOTE: For most people, one leg is stronger than the other, the running mat may tend to

move to that side because of the extra pressure exerted by the stronger leg.

If this occurs then either dismount the treadmill and allow the mat to track back to the middle,

or exert pressure to the side of the mat with the other leg, to track the mat back to the middle.

Or adjust the mat to compensate following the instructions for mat moves right or left.

MAT TOO LOOSE

If your mat appears to be loose, simply tighten both screws by an equal amount of

clockwise at a time, then test.

MAT TOO TIGHT

If it appears tight, simply loosen both screws by an equal amount of

time, then test.

MAT STICKY (DOES NOT RUN SMOOTHLY)

You may feel after a period of time (depending on how often you use the machine)

that the mat feels sticky .

We recommend you apply a light covering of Silicone between the mat and the running board.

This procedure may be repeated as necessary.

WALKING MAT AND DECK LUBRICATION

This treadmill is equipped with a pre-lubricated, maintenance deck system. The mat/deck friction

may play a major role in the function and life of your treadmill, this requires periodic lubrication.

We recommend a periodic inspection of the deck. If the deck appears worn, please contact

our service department.

We recommend lubrication of the deck according to the following timetable:

Light use ( less than 3 hours per week ) every 8 months

Medium use ( 3-5 hours per week ) every 4 months

Heavy use ( more than 5 hours per week ) 2 months
