MAINTENANCE
ATTENTION: Some maintenance activities described may be beyond the scope of some users.
For procedures that you are not comfortable with or have the tools or experience for, have the
unit serviced by a service centre or qualified technician. • To prevent electrical shock, switch OFF
and unplug the equipment before cleaning or performing any maintenance tasks. • Before each
use, check the running belt for wear.
CLEANING
The equipment can be cleaned with a soft cloth and mild detergent. Do not use abrasives, solvents or harsh chemicals.
Be careful not to get excessive moisture on the display panel as this may damage it and create an electrical hazard.
After each use, wipe the unit of any sweat, dirt or liquids. Pay extra attention to the edges of the belt, where it meets the
running boards on each side of the running belt – keeping this area clean will help prolong the life of the unit and maintain
its performance. Keep the equipment, especially the display console, out of direct sunlight to prevent damage to the screen.
MAINTENANCE
BELT LUBRICATION
Lubricating the running belt will ensure superior performance and extend service life. After the first 25 hours of use
(or 2 to 3 months) apply some lubricant, and repeat for every following 50 hours of use (or 5 to 8 months) or more
frequently if under extended regular usage. 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 lubrication is required. If the surface is dry to the touch, apply some lubricant.
How to apply lubricant:
1.
Lift one side of running belt.
2.
Pour several drops of the supplied lubricant to the top
surface of the running deck, under the centre of the
running belt.
3.
Run the equipment at a slow speed for 3 to 5 minutes to
evenly distribute lubricant.
NOTE: Do not over lubricate. Wipe away any excess lubricant from the running belt.
BELT ALIGNMENT AND TENSION ADJUSTMENT
The running belt is pre-adjusted to the running deck at the
factory, but after prolonged use it can stretch and require re-
tensioning. To adjust the belt, turn on the main power switch
of the equipment and let the belt run at a speed of 6km/h. Use
the Allen key provided to turn the rear roller adjustment bolts to
center the belt. If the running belt is shifting to the left, turn the
left adjustment bolt 1/4 turn to the right, and the running belt
should start to correct itself.
If the running belt is shifting to the right, then turn the right
adjustment bolt 1/4 turn to the left, and the belt should start to
correct itself. Keep turning the adjustment bolts until the running
belt is properly centered.
If the running belt is slipping during use, turn off and unplug the
equipment. Using the Allen key provided, turn both left and right
rear roller adjustment bolts 1/4 turn to the right, then turn the
main power switch back on and run the equipment at a speed
of 6km/h. Run on to the running belt to determine if the belt is
still slipping. Repeat this procedure until the belt no longer slips.
