Treadmill Use and Maintenance

2024-10-18

I. Working Principle of Treadmill

The working principle of a treadmill is mainly to drive the running belt to rotate through a motor, thereby simulating the movement during running. When we exercise on a treadmill, the running belt will rotate according to our pace speed and strength, enabling us to achieve the effect of running exercise on the treadmill.

II. Maintenance & Care

1. General cleaning will help prolong the life and performance of your treadmill. Keep the unit clean and maintained by dusting the components on a regular basis. Clean
both sides of the running belt to prevent dust from accumulating underneath the belt. Keep your running shoes clean so that dirt from your shoes does not wear out the
running board and belt. Clean the surface of the running belt with a clean damp cloth.

2. To better maintain the treadmill and prolong its life it is suggested that the machine be powered off for 10 minutes every 2 hours and fully powered off whenever not in use.

3. A loose Running Belt will result in the runner sliding off when running, while too tight of a Running Belt will result in decrease to the motors performance and also create more friction between the roller and running belts. The most suitable tightness for the belts is pulled out 50-75mm from the Running Board.

III. Lubrication the Treadmill

RUNNING BELTS & TREADMILL LUBRICANT:

Lubricating the running board and running belt is essential as the friction between the two affects the life span and function of the treadmill, therefore it is suggested that the running board and belt be inspected regularly.

WARNING: Always unplug the treadmill from the electrical outlet before cleaning, lubricating or repairing the unit.

How to Lubricate:

1. Raise the belt up on one side and apply lubricant to the running deck. Use a rag to thoroughly wipe the lubricant over the running deck. Repeat this process for the other side.

2. The moving parts should turn freely and quietly. Abnormality of moving parts will affect the safety of the equipment. Inspect and tighten bolts regularly.

To better maintain the treadmill and prolong its lifespan, it is suggested that maintenance be done on a regular basis.
