NOTE: Only use the included bottle of silicone lubricating oil to lubricate
the running belt. Do not use any other kinds of lubricants or silicone sprays.
HOW TO LUBRICATE THE RUNNING BELT
1. Make sure that the treadmill is switched off and
unplugged, and that the belt is no longer moving.
2. Remove the lid from the bottle of lubricating oil.
Carefully remove the protective paper covering from
its top. Replace the lid. See Figure 1.
3. Pull the small applicator tip up to open the bottle.
4. Lubrication must be applied under the belt. Lift one
side of the belt high enough that you can reach under
it with the end of the applicator tip. See Figure 2.
5. Apply lubricating oil under the belt in a zig-zag
pattern, from the front to the back of the treadmill.
See Figure 3.
6. Do not apply more than 2–3 ml of oil. If too much oil is
applied it can lead to the running belt slipping. If this occurs, use a dry
cloth to remove the excess oil from the running deck.
7. After applying the lubrication, let the running belt run without any load
(no one on the treadmill) at a speed of 2.5 mi/hr for 5 minutes to evenly
distribute the lubricating oil.

MAINTENANCE AND CARE
WARNING:
• Switch off the power and remove the power cord from the electrical
outlet before lubricating the running belt.
• Keep the bottle of lubricating oil out of reach of children and pets at all
times to prevent accidental ingestion. In case of ingestion, contact your
physician or local poison control center immediately.
LUBRICATING THE RUNNING BELT
The most important maintenance for a treadmill is regular, timely
lubrication and care and maintenance of the running belt.
• The running belt must be lubricated if a significant increase in friction is
noted. This will be apparent if the belt makes jerking movements during
training.
• Insufficient lubrication and the resulting increase in friction will
inevitably lead to an increase in wear and cause damage to the
treadmill’s running belt, deck, motor, and circuit board.
• How often you use the treadmill will generally determine how often
you must perform maintenance. Typically, treadmills will only need to
be lubricated every few months. However, as use-time will vary greatly
from person to person, we recommend you keep a maintenance log and
set a specific day each week in the first 6 months of use to check the
lubrication of the running belt.
• To check the belt lubrication, lift the front third of the belt and feel with
your hand for lubrication under 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 it in your
maintenance log accordingly. Over time, you will be able to see how often
lubrication is needed.
NOTE: Even if you choose not to keep a maintenance log, you must check
the lubrication of the running belt at least once a week.
• If the treadmill is not used for a long period, you must check the
lubrication of the belt before use and lubricate it if necessary.
