Proper lubrication of the running belt is crucial for smooth operation and to prevent wear. While the provided manual may lack specific details, general guidelines for treadmill lubrication are:

• Procedure:
  1. Unplug the treadmill.
  2. Loosen the rear roller bolts slightly to lift the belt.
  3. Apply a thin line of 100% silicone lubricant (specifically designed for treadmills) evenly under the center of the running belt.
  4. Tighten the rear roller bolts to their original tension.
  5. Plug in the treadmill and run it at a slow speed (e.g., 3 km/h) for 5 minutes to distribute the lubricant.
• Refer to the specific instructions provided with your treadmill lubricant for best results.

6.3 Belt Tension and Alignment

If the running belt feels loose or drifts to one side, it may need adjustment. Consult the detailed instructions in your user manual for proper belt tensioning and alignment procedures. Incorrect adjustment can damage the belt or motor.
