CLEANING & GENERAL MAINTENANCE
1. Wipe down the Electrostride after exercise. Clean only with a damp cloth. Do not
use chemical or solvent cleaners.
2. Inspect for visible damage before use. Do not use if damaged.
3. Inspect and tighten all external bolts periodically (do not remove the motor hood).
4. Only use with the original parts and accessories provided by the manufacturer.
5. Never remove the motor hood, other than to perform cleaning and maintenance
procedures described in this manual, unless instructed to do so by an authorized
service representative. Servicing other than the procedures in this manual should
be performed by an authorized service representative only.
6. Never insert or drop any object into any opening.
LUBRICATING THE TREADMILL BELT
The most important maintenance work to do to a treadmill is regular and timely
lubrication and care and maintenance of the belt. Damages or defects caused by failure
or lack of maintenance and care are in no way covered by the warranty.
• The treadmill belt must always be lubricated if a significant increase of friction is
detected. This will become apparent if the belt makes jerking movements during
training or if the error message E1 appears in the display.
• Insufficient lubrication or care and the resulting increase in friction will inevitably
lead to an increase in wear and cause damage to the treadmill belt, deck, motor and
circuit board.
• How often you use the treadmill will generally determine how often you must
perform maintenance. As this varies from person to person, we would recommend
that you keep a maintenance log. You should set a specific day every week in the
first 6 months of use to check the treadmill belt lubrication.
• Lift up the front third part of the belt and feel with your hand if there is still
lubrication in the middle of the belt. If lubrication is present, then write “OK” next
to the date in your maintenance log. If there is little or no lubrication present, then
lubricate the belt and record this in your maintenance book accordingly. Over time,
you will be able to see how often lubrication is required.
•
Even if you choose not to keep a maintenance log, you must check the
lubrication of the treadmill belt at least once a week.
• If the treadmill is not used, or if the treadmill remains folded-up for a long period,
you must check the lubrication of the belt before use and lubricate it if necessary.
CAUTION: Only use the included bottle of silicone oil to lubricate the treadmill
belt. Do not use any other kinds of silicone or lubricants. We do not recommend the
use of silicone sprays at any time.
To lubricate the belt:
1. Remove the normal screw bottle top from the included bottle of
maintenance oil. See Figure 1.
2. Screw on the attached applicator tip. See Figure 2.
3. Before lubricating the belt, make sure that the treadmill is
switched off and unplugged and that the belt is no longer moving.
4. Lift up the belt. See Figure 3.
5. The belt should be lubricated from both sides. Lift up the belt
from one side high enough so that you can reach the middle of
the belt with the end of bottle’s applicator tip.
6. Apply a wavy line of silicone oil from the middle of the belt
towards the sides. You should apply three to four lines of
silicone oil running from the middle of the belt to the sides. See
Figure 4.
7. For each weekly lubrication, you should not apply more than
10-20ml of silicone oil. If too much silicone is applied, this may
lead to the treadmill belt slipping. If this occurs, remove the
excess oil from the deck and drive rollers with a dry cloth.
8. After completing the weekly lubrication process, let the belt run
without any load at a speed of 2.5 mi/hr for 5 minutes to evenly
distribute the silicone oil.
CAUTION: After lubricating the belt, do not fold up the treadmill for at least 3 days.
