The T60 is built for use in the light commercial environment - 8 hours a day and seven
days a week. However, as a club manager or owner, you are responsible for cleaning and
maintaining the unit’s integrity. If you fail to maintain the treadmill as described below, it
could affect or void the Johnson limited warranty.
DANGER — To reduce the risk of electrical shock, always unplug the treadmill from
its power source before cleaning it or performing any maintenance tasks.
1) Use a soft, clean cotton cloth. DO NOT use paper towels to clean surfaces on the
treadmill. DO NOT use ammonia or acid based cleaners. DO NOT use abrasive
cleaners. DO NOT apply cleaners directly to equipment surfaces.
2) Wipe the console and side rails after every use.
3)
Brush away any wax deposits from the deck and belt area. This is a common occurrence
until the wax is worked into the belt material.
4) Be sure to remove any obstructions from the path of the elevation wheels including
power cords.
5) Monthly, unplug the treadmill and remove the motor cover. Check for debris and
clean with a dry cloth or small vacuum nozzle. DO NOT plug the unit in until the
motor cover has been reinstalled.
4) To Press QUICK START and speed up the SPEED up to 6.4 kph / 4 mph during the belt
adjustment.
5) After the belt adjustment, let the treadmill run for 5 minutes to test. If necessary,
repeat the procedure until the belt is centred.
If the belt moves to the left, turn the left tension bolt a 1/4 turn clockwise, and then
turn the right tension bolt - turn counter-clockwise to start the belt tracking back to
centre of the roller.
If the belt moves to the right, turn the right tension bolt a 1/4 turn clockwise, and
then turn the left tension bolt - turn counter-clockwise to start the belt tracking back to
centre of roller.
Repeat these adjustments until the belt appears centred. Allow the belt to continue
running for several minutes to be sure that the tracking is stabilised.
NOTE: Do not exceed one full turn of the adjusting screws in either direction. If,
after one full turn, the belt does not track properly, contact your Johnson Dealer.
TENSIONING THE BELT
Check the tension of the belt. The belt should be very snug. When a person walks or
runs on the belt it should not hesitate or slip. If this occurs, tighten the belt by turning
both tension bolts a -turn clockwise. Repeat if necessary, but NEVER TURN the tension
bolts over a 1/4 turn at a time. If, after tensioning the belt, the belt still hesitates or
slips, please contact your Johnson Dealer.
CAUTION! Over-tightening the belt will severely shorten the life of the belt and
cause damage to other components.
CENTERING THE BELT
The T60 is built with a crowned roller to ensure proper tracking of the belt in the
centre of the deck. When you run or walk, you may push off harder with one foot
than the other. This uneven deflection can cause the belt to move off centre.
Occasionally, the belt may need further adjustment to keep it centred. To centre
the belt, use the enclosed 8mm Allen wrench to adjust the rear roller position.
CAUTION! Please follow the centring belt procedure tips before you begin.
1) Do not wear loose clothing or loose jewellery while making this adjustment.
2) Never turn the bolts more than 1/4 turn at a time.
3) Tighten one side and loosen the other side to prevent from over-tightening or loosing
the belt. Over-tightening the belt will significantly shorten the life of the belt.
1/4 TURN
NOTE: Safety of the equipment can be maintained only if the equipment is examined
regularly for damage or wear. Keep the equipment out of use until defective parts are
