3. IMPORTANT OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
•Understand that changes in speed and incline do not occur immediately. Set your desired speed on
the display console and release the adjustment key. The display will obey the command gradually.
•Use caution while participating in other activities while walking on your treadmill, such as watching

•Belt wear-in period: all treadmills make a certain type of thumping noise due to the belt
riding over the rollers, especially new treadmills. This noise will diminish over time, although
may not completely go away. The belt will stretch over time, causing it to ride smoother
over the rollers.

7. 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.
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 25 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).

15
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.
NOTE: DO NOT over lubricate running deck. Any excess lubricant that comes out should be wiped off.
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
The running belt is pre-adjusted to the running deck at the factory, but after prolonged use it can stretch and
require readjustment.
To adjust the belt, turn on the main power switch of the treadmill and let the belt run at a speed of 8-10
KPH. Use the Allen Wrench provided to turn the rear roller adjustment bolts in order to centre the belt.
If the running belt is shifting to the left, turn the left adjustment bolt 1/4 turn clockwise, and the running
belt should start to correct itself.

If the running belt is shifting to the right, then turn the right adjustment bolt 1/4 turn clockwise, and the belt
should start to correct itself. Keep turning the adjustment bolts until the running belt is properly centered.
If the running belt is slipping during use, turn off and unplug the treadmill. Using the Allen Wrench provided,
turn both left and right rear roller adjustment bolts 1/4 turn clockwise, then turn the main power switch back
on and run the treadmill at a speed of 8-10 KPH.
Run on to the running belt to determine if the belt is still slipping. Repeat this procedure until the belt no
longer slips.
