The following preventive maintenance tips will keep the product operating at peak performance:

  • Locate the product in a cool, dry place.
  • Clean the display console and all exterior surfaces with an approved or compatible cleaner (see Approved and Compatible Cleaners) and a microfiber cloth.
  • Long fingernails may damage or scratch the surface of the console; use the pad of the finger to press the selection buttons on the console.
  • Check operation of the emergency stop system once a week.
  • Inspect and vacuum the area directly surrounding and under the unit regularly.
  • Vacuum around the striding belt regularly to keep debris from accumulating.
  • Inspect exterior parts regularly for wear, particularly the striding belt, deck and line cord.
  • Check to make sure the unit is properly leveled.
  • Check the position (centering) of the striding belt.
Note: Normal belt operating position is for the belt to be located within the belt travel indicators on the rear roller guards. Refer to Tracking (Centering) A Striding Belt or contact Customer Support Services for proper alignment instructions.
