Cleaning Your Treadmill
When cleaning your treadmill spray a mild cleaning agent, such as a water and dishsoap solution,
on a clean cloth first and then wipe the treadmill with the damp cloth. Do not spray cleaning solution
directly on the treadmill. Direct spraying could cause damage to the electronics and may void the
warranty.
WARNING: Serious injury or death can occur. To avoid injury or death the following
procedure must be followed. To prevent electrical shock, be sure that power
is shut off and the treadmill is unplugged from the electrical outlet before
performing any cleaning or maintenance procedures.
After Each Use — Wipe up any liquid spills immediately. After each workout, use a cloth to wipe up
any remaining perspiration from the handrails and painted surfaces.
Be careful not to spill or get excessive moisture between the edge of the display panel and the
console, as this might create an electrical hazard or cause failure of the electronics.
As Needed — Vacuum any dust or dirt that might accumulate under or around the treadmill. Motors
are especially susceptible to dust and dirt, and restricted airflow can prevent adequate cooling that
could shorten motor life. Cleaning this area should be done as often as indicated in the Service
Schedule.
WARNING: Serious injury or death can occur. To avoid injury or death the following
procedure must be followed. Keep wet items away from inside parts of the
treadmill. Electrical shock could occur even if the treadmill is unplugged.
Do not touch components on the lower board. A charge can remain after
unplugging the power cord.
To clean the motor components, you must loosen the four Phillips head screws that hold the motor
cover in place. Lift the cover straight up; the screws and side covers will stay in place. Use a vacuum
attachment or hand vacuum to clean the exposed elevation assembly, drive motor, lower electronics
and the surrounding areas.
Also use a dry cloth for the areas that you can not reach with the vacuum cleaner. If the machine has
not been used for some time or is excessively dirty, use a dry cloth to wipe all exposed areas.
Carefully raise the rear of the treadmill and roll it back from its present position to vacuum the floor
area underneath the unit. When finished, return the treadmill to its normal position.
Contact Heart Rate Grips — Contaminants, such as hand lotions, oils or body powder, may come off
on the contact heart rate grips. These can reduce sensitivity and interfere with the heart rate signal.
It is recommended that the user have clean hands when using the contact heart rate. Clean the grips
using a cloth dampened with a cleaning solution containing rubbing alcohol. The grips are the only part
of the treadmill you should use a cleaning solution containing rubbing alcohol.
