Exterior Care
The powder-coat finish on your TRACKMASTER
®
is an extremely durable
finish and requires minimal care. Do not allow perspiration to build up on
your treadmill. Wipe the unit daily.
Elevation Screw Lubrication
The Elevation Screw must be cleaned and lubricated every 6 months to
maintain proper operation of the treadmill. Failure to perform this
maintenance function will result in premature wear and ultimate failure of the
lift mechanism.
This procedure requires the following tools:
• TRACKMASTER
®
grease (Part # 317-160-165)
• Clean, lint-free cloth
• Small paint brush
1. Raise the TRACKMASTER
®
to its maximum elevation.
2. Turn the main power switch to the OFF position, and unplug the treadmill
from its outlet.
3. Using a lint-free cloth, remove the old lubricant and accumulated dust
from the elevation screw.
4. Use a small brush to reapply a thin coat of grease to the threads of the
elevation screw. Do not use too much grease—the excess could squeeze
onto the floor and create a slip-and-fall hazard.
5. Return the unit to service.
Running Deck Maintenance
The TRACKMASTER
®
running deck is maintenance–free and offers (2)
running deck surfaces for double the life of ordinary treadmills.
NOTE: Do not use silicone sprays to wax your treadmill deck. Using silicone sprays
may void the warranty. Such sprays can bring about surface changes that may
result in hesitation or excessive belt slip.
If running deck surface becomes grooved due to wear, it can be renewed by
flipping the deck to the opposite side.
