• We recommend to perform each of the following excercises 10 times and to repeat the complete cycle up to five times. Then make your training according to your personal fitness level.

• After training, also do stretching excercises to properly cool down. HEAD ROLLS Rotate your head to the right for one count, feeling the stretch up the left side of your neck, then rotate your head back for one count, stretching your chin to the ceiling and letting your mouth open. Rotate your head to the left for one count, then drop your head to your chest for one count.

6. Cleaning and maintenance

• After each use, wipe sweat from the device with a slightly wetted cloth.

• Never allow moisture or humidity to reach the computer or other electrical or electronic components.

• Do not use abrasives or solvents.

• Before and after each training session, check that the device is in perfect condition. Also check that all fastening parts and protective covers are in place and intact. Tighten bolts and nuts if necessary.

Lubricating under the running belt will ensure superior performance and extend its life expectancy. After the first 25 hours of use (or 2-3 months) apply some lubricant, and repeat for every following 50 hours of use (or 5-8 months).

6.3.1 How to check running belt for proper lubrication

• Lift one side of the running belt and feel the top surface of the running deck.

• If the surface is slick to the touch, then no further lubrication is required.

• If the surface is dry to the touch, apply some lubricant. Run on the treadmill at a slow speed for 3 to 5 minutes to evenly distribute lubricant. NOTE: DO NOT over lubricate running deck. Any excess lubricant that comes out should be wiped off.

6.4 ADJUSTING THE RUNNING BELT

The running belt is tensioned at the factory. However, due to stretching, it may be necessary to re-tension and readjust the running belt after some time. This is done via screws in the end caps of the running belt Lubricant27

frame, which can be turned with the Allen key supplied.

6.4.1 Checking the tension of the running belt

If the running belt slips when stepping on, when changing speed or already when switching on, it is probably too weakly tensioned. However, the running belt may neither be too tight, as this increases the wear of the ball bearings, among other things.

• Ensure that no children or animals approach the treadmill.

• Switch on the device and run the belt at 4 to 6 km/h and observe the run.

6.4.2 Uniform retightening of the running belt

• Turn the screws alternately on both sides evenly and carefully about a quarter turn clockwise to increase the tension. Do not stretch too much.

• Check that the running belt is centred and adequately tensioned.

6.4.3 Relaxing the running belt

In rare cases, the running belt may be too tight. Then:

• Carefully turn the screw(s) about a quarter turn anticlockwise to reduce the tension.

• Check that the running belt is centred and adequately tensioned.

6.4.4 Adjusting the running belt centrally

• If the belt does not run centrally, the tension must be increased on the side to which it is drifting. (drifting to the right => tighten slightly on the right or relax slightly on the left; drifting to the left => tighten slightly on the left or relax slightly on the right)

• Retighten by a maximum of a quarter turn, then check the central running again.
