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 airow can prevent adequate cooling that
could shorten motor life. Cleaning this area should be done as often as indicated in the Service
Schedule.
WARNING: Keep wet items away from inside parts of the treadmill. Electrical shock
could occur even if the treadmill is unplugged. A charge can remain after
unplugging the power cord.
To clean the motor components, you must loosen the two Phillips head screws that hold the motor
cover in place. Lift the cover straight up; the screws 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.
Fan and Heat Sink — Vacuum the fan and heat sink area of the motor controller.

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 oor
area underneath the unit. When nished, 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.
Running Belt Maintenance
Belt and Deck — Wipe the belt surface and the deck area with a clean dry towel to minimize
the effect of friction between the deck and the running belt. This should be done often to prevent
premature wear of the deck, running belt, and the drive motor system. See the Service Schedule at
the end of this chapter.
The running belt may become loose and slip on the drive roller with each foot plant. If it does, follow
the Tension and Center the Belt procedure below. See the Service Schedule in this chapter for a
minimum schedule for checking the belt tension.
