Maintenance

Regular maintenance ensures the longevity and optimal performance of your GYMAX Walking Pad.

• Cleaning: Wipe down the treadmill with a damp cloth after each use to remove sweat and dust. Avoid using abrasive cleaners.

  • Apply lubricant under the center of the running belt, ensuring it spreads evenly.
  • Frequency of lubrication depends on usage; typically every 1-3 months with regular use.
• Belt Adjustment: If the running belt shifts to one side, it may need adjustment. Refer to the detailed instructions in the full product manual for proper belt alignment procedures.
