5. Cleaning and maintenance
5.1 CLEANING
• After each use, wipe sweat from the device with a slightly wetted cloth.
• Never allow moisture or humidity to reach the computer or other electrical or electronic components.
• Do not use abrasives or solvents.
5.2 MAINTENANCE
• Before and after each training session, check that the device is in perfect condition. Also check that
all fastening parts and protective covers are in place and intact. Tighten bolts and nuts if necessary.
5.3 LUBRICATING
For proper functioning and long life of the device, the running belt must be adequately lubricated with
silicone oil. There are thin tubes on the underside of the device as a lubrication system.
5.3.1 Lubrication and inspection intervals
• Refill with silicone oil after the first 25 hours of operation (or 2-3 months).
• Check the lubrication regularly.
• Top up with silicone oil at least every 50 operating hours (or 5-8 months).
• Run on the treadmill at a slow speed for 3 to 5 minutes to evenly distribute lubricant.
5.3.2 Checking lubrication
• Make sure that the electrical supply plug of the device is disconnected.
• Lift the running belt on one side. Run your finger over the top of the running deck under the running
belt.
- If the running deck feels slightly oily, the lubrication is sufficient
- However, if the running deck feels dry, you need to top up with silicone oil.
