7. EXERCISE GUIDE
PLEASE NOTE: Before beginning any exercise program, consult your physician. This is important
especially if you are over the age of 45 or individuals with pre-existing health problems.
The pulse sensors are not medical devices. Various factors, including the user’s movement, may
affect the accuracy of heart rate readings. The pulse sensors are intended only as an exercise aid in
determining heart rate trends in general.
Exercising is great way to control your weight, improving your fitness and reduce the effect of aging and
stress. The key to success is to make exercise a regular and enjoyable part of your everyday life.
The condition of your heart and lungs and how efficient they are in delivering oxygen via your blood to your
muscles is an important factor to your fitness. Your muscles use this oxygen to provide enough energy for
daily activity. This is called aerobic activity. When you are fit, your heart will not have to work so hard. It will
pump a lot fewer times per minute, reducing the wear and tear of your heart.
So as you can see, the fitter you are, the healthier and greater you will feel.
Warm-up
Start each workout with 5 to 10 minutes of stretching and some light exercises. A proper warm-up increases
your body temperature, heart rate and circulation in preparation for exercise. Ease into your exercise.

16
WALKSTATION ML
Training Zone Exercise
After warming up, increase the intensity to your desired exercise program. Be sure to maintain your intensity
for maximum performance. Breathe regularly and deeply as you exercise-never hold your breath.
Cool Down
Finish each workout with a light jog or walk for at least 1 minute. Then complete 5 to 10 minutes of
stretching to cool down. This will increase the flexibility of your muscles and will help prevent post-exercise
problems.
Workout Guidelines
TARGET ZONE
THIS IS HOW YOUR PULSE SHOULD BEHAVE DURING GENERAL FITNESS EXERCISE.
REMEMBER TO WARM UP AND COOL DOWN FOR A FEW MINUTES.
The most important factor here is the amount of effort you put in. The harder and longer you work, the more
calories you will burn. Effectively this is the same as if you were training to improve your fitness, the difference
is the goal.

8. MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS
Reasonable cleaning/lubricating should be made to extend the life time of this unit. Performance is
maximized when the belt and mat are kept as clean as possible.
WARNING: THE MAT/DECK FRICTION MAY PLAY A MAJOR ROLE IN THE FUNCTION AND LIFE OF
YOUR TREADMILL AND THAT IS WHY WE RECOMMEND YOU CONSTANTLY LUBRICATE THIS
FRICTION POINT TO PROLONG THE USEFUL LIFE OF YOUR TREADMILL. FAILING TO DO THIS
MAY VOID YOUR WARRANTY.
WARNING: UNPLUG POWER CORD BEFORE MAINTENANCE
WARNING: STOP TREADMILL BEFORE FOLDING
1. General Cleaning
Use a soft, damp cloth to wipe the edge of the belt and the area between the belt edge and frame. A
mild soap and water solution along with a nylon scrub brush will clean the top of the textured belt.
This task should be done once a month. Allow to dry before using.
On a monthly basis, vacuum underneath your treadmill to prevent dust build up. Once a year, you
should remove the black motor shield and vacuum out dirt that may accumulate.
2. General Care
Check parts for wear before use.
Pay particular attention to the fixing knobs and make sure they are tight.
Always replace the mat if worn and any other defective parts.
If in doubt do not use the treadmill and contact us.

18
WALKSTATION ML
TAKE CARE TO PROTECT CARPETS AND FLOOR in case of leakages. This product is a machine that
contains moving parts which have been greased / lubricated and could leak.
3. Belt/Deck/Roller Lubrication
The mat/deck friction may play a major role in the function and life of your treadmill and that is why we
recommend you constantly lubricate this friction point to prolong the useful life of your treadmill. You should
apply lubrication after approximately the first 30 hours of operation. We recommend lubrication of the deck
according to the following timetable:
oLight use (less than 3 hours per week) every 6 months
oMedium use (3-5 hours a week) every 3 months
oHeavy use (more than 5 hours per week) every 6-8 weeks
See below procedures for lubricating:
1. Use a soft, dry cloth to wipe the area between the belt and deck.
2. Spread lubricant onto the inside surface of belt and deck evenly (make sure the machine is turned
off and power is disconnected).
3. Periodically lubricate the front and rear rollers to keep them at their peak performance. If the
treadmill belt/deck/roller is kept reasonably clean it is possible to expect over 1200 hours before
relubricating is necessary.

4. How to check the running mat for proper lubrication:
1. Disconnect the main power supply.
2. Fold the treadmill up into the storage position.
3. Feel the underside surface of the running mat.
If the surface is slick when touched, then no further lubrication is needed.
If the surface is dry to the touch, apply a suitable silicone lubricant.
We recommend that you use a silicone based spray to lubricate your Lifespan treadmill. This can be
purchased directly from us or any hardware store.

5. Adjusting the Running Belt
A
B
C
Place treadmill on a level surface. Run treadmill
at approximately 4km/h, checking the running
condition.
If the belt has drifted to the right:
Whilst the treadmill is running at 4km/h,
carefully turn the right adjusting bolt 1/4 turn
clockwise. Then monitor treadmill until the belt
centers. Repeat until the belt correctly centers.
See Picture A
If you have over adjusted the belt and it drifts to
the right, carefully turn the right adjusting bolt
anticlockwise until the belt centers.
If the belt has drifted to the left:
Whilst the treadmill is running at 4km/h,
carefully turn the left adjusting bolt 1/4 turn
clockwise. Then monitor treadmill until the belt
centers. Repeat until the belt correctly centers.
See Picture B
If you have over adjusted it, carefully turn the
left adjusting bolt anticlockwise and until the
belt centers.
To adjust the tightness of the belt:
Turn the treadmill off. Turn both the left and right
adjusting bolts 1/4 turn clockwise. Repeat until
the belt correctly tightens.
See Picture C
If the belt is over tightened, simply do the
opposite to loosen.
