TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE

LUBRICATION
Lubricating under the running belt will ensure superior performance and extend its life expectancy. After the first 25 hours of use (or 2-3 months) apply some lubricant, and repeat for every following 50 hours of use (or 5-8 months).

How to check running belt for proper lubrication
Lift one side of the running belt and feel the top surface of the running deck. If the surface is slick to the touch, then no further lubrication is required. If the surface is dry to the touch, apply some lubricant.

How to apply lubricant
Lift one side of running belt. Pour some lubricant under the centre of the running belt on the top surface of the running deck. Run on the treadmill at a slow speed for 3 to 5 minutes to evenly distribute lubricant.

NOTE: DO NOT over lubricate running deck. Any excess lubricant that comes out should be wiped off.

EMERGENCY STOP

Before beginning a workout session ensure that the Safety Tether Key is properly placed onto the Computer Console and the Safety Clip is securely attached to an article of your clothing.

Replaced the Safety Tether Key onto the Computer Console. Press the START button to begin exercise again.

BELT ADJUSTMENT
The running belt is pre-adjusted to the running deck at the factory, but after prolonged use it can stretch and require readjustment. To adjust the belt, turn on the main power switch of the treadmill and let the belt run at a speed of 8-10 KPH. Use the Allen Wrench provided to turn the rear roller adjustment bolts in order to centre the belt.

1. If the running belt is shifting to the left, turn the left adjustment bolt 1/4 turn clockwise, and the running belt should start to correct itself.
2. If the running belt is shifting to the right, then turn the right adjustment bolt 1/4 turn clockwise, and the belt should start to correct itself. Keep turning the adjustment bolts until the running belt is properly centered.

3. If the running belt is slipping during use, turn off and unplug the treadmill. Using the Allen Wrench provid-ed, turn both left and right rear roller adjustment bolts 1/4 turn clockwise, then turn the main power switch back on and run the treadmill at a speed of 8-10 KPH. Run on to the running belt to determine if the belt is still slipping. Repeat this procedure until the belt no longer slips.
