Maintenance Instructions
26
WARNING! Before performing any maintenance to your treadmill, always unplug the power cord from
the surge protector.
CLEANING: Routine cleaning of your unit will extend the life of your unit.
WARNING! To prevent electrical shock, be sure the power to the treadmill is OFF and the unit is unplugged
from the wall electrical outlet before attempting any cleaning or maintenance.
AFTER EACH WORKOUT: Wipe off the console and other treadmill surfaces with a clean, water damp-
ened soft cloth to remove excess perspiration. USE NO CHEMICALS.
WEEKLY: Use of a treadmill mat is recommended for ease of cleaning. Dirt from your shoes contacts the
belt and eventually makes it to underneath the treadmill. Vacuum underneath treadmill once a week.
DECK LUBRICATION: The walking belt has been pre-lubricated at the factory. However, it is recommend-
ed that the walking board be checked periodically for lubrication to ensure optimal treadmill performance.
Every 30 days or 30 hours of operation, lift the sides of the walking belt and feel the top surface of the walk-
ing board as far under as you can reach. If you feel signs of silicone, no further lubrication is required. If it
feels dry to the touch, lubrication is needed. Ironman Fitness recommends “Lube N Walk” for cleaning and
lubricating the treadmill belt and deck. Ask your retailer or call Ironman Fitness at (800) 750-4766. You may
also use silicone such as “Napa 8300” (available at most NAPA Auto Parts stores).
TO APPLY LUBRICANT TO THE WALKING BOARD
1) Position the walking belt so that the seam is located on top and in the center of the center of the walking
board.
2) Insert the spray nozzle into the spray head of the lubricant can.
3) While lifting the side of the walking belt, position the spray nozzle between the walking belt and the board
approximately 6” from the front of the treadmill. Apply the silicone spray to the walking board, moving from
the front of the treadmill to the rear. Repeat this on the other side of the belt. Spray approximately 4 seconds
on each side.
4) Allow the silicone to ‘set’ for one minute before using the treadmill.
WARNING: Do not over-lubricate the walking board. Excess lubricant should be wiped off with a clean
towel.
