How to Maintain the EVO 2CD
Treadmill:
Proper maintenance is very important
to ensure your treadmill is always in top
working condition. Improper
maintenance
maintenance could cause damage or
shorten the life of your treadmill and
exceed the LIMITED WARRANTY
coverage.
IMPORTANT STEPS
IMPORTANT: Never use abrasives or
solvents to clean the treadmill. To
prevent damage to the computer, keep
liquids away and keep it out of direct
sunlight.
Inspect and tighten all parts of the
treadmill regularly. Replace any worn
parts immediately.
BELT ADJUSTMENT:
The running belt has been adjusted properly
by the factory. However transportation,
uneven flooring or other unpredicted
reasons could cause the belt to shift off
center resulting in the belt rubbing with the
plastic side rail or end caps and possibly
causing damage. To adjust the belt back to
it’s proper position please follow the
directions below:
1. If your belt tends to walk to the right,
rotate the right tension bolt clockwise. We
recommend adjustments of 1/4 turn at a
time, and follow with a test. If your belt
continues to walk to the right, simply adjust
the left belt tension bolt by turning it 1/4 turn
counterclockwise, follow with a test.
2. If your belt tends to walk to the left, rotate
the left tension bolt clockwise 1/4 turn at a
time, and follow with a test. If the belt
continues to walk to the left, simply adjust
the right tension bolt counterclockwise.
3. If your belt appears to be loose, simply
tighten both bolts evenly 1/4 turn. If it
appears tight, simply loosen both bolts
evenly 1/4 turn.

WARNING! Before performing any
maintenance to your treadmill,
always unplug the power cord from
the surge protector.
CLEANING:
Routine cleaning of your treadmill
will extend the product's life.
Warning! To prevent electrical
shock, be sure the power to the
treadmill is OFF and the unit
unplugged from the wall electrical
outlet before attempting any
cleaning or maintenance.
MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS
After each workout: Wipe off the
console and other treadmill
surfaces with a clean, water
dampened soft cloth to remove
excess perspiration.
IMPORTANT: Never use abrasives
or solvents to clean the treadmill.
To prevent damage to the
computer, keep liquids away and
keep it out of direct sunlight.
Weekly: Use of a treadmill mat is
recommended for ease of cleaning.
Dirt from your shoes contacts the
belt and eventually makes it to
underneath the treadmill. Vacuum
underneath treadmill once a week.
DECK LUBRICATION:
The walking belt has been pre-
lubricated at the factory. However,
it is recommended that the walking
board be checked periodically for
lubrication to ensure optimal treadmill
performance. Your treadmill should
not have to be lubricated usually
within the first year or 500 hours of
use. Call your local Smooth dealer
for service or questions regarding
EVO products.
Every 30 days or 30 hours of
operation, lift the sides of the walking
belt and feel the top surface of the
walking board as far as you can
reach. If you feel signs of silicone,
no further lubrication is required. If
it feels dry to the touch, follow the
instructions below.
Please use Lube 'N Walk (can be
purchased from your dealer or call
the number on the front of the
manual), or a non-petroleum based
silicone such as "Napa 8300"
(available at most stores).
To apply lubricant to the walking
belt:
1. Position the walking belt so that
the seam is located on top and in
center of the walking board.
maintenance
3. While lifting the side of the walking
belt, position the spray nozzle
between the walking belt and the
board approximately 6" from the front
of the treadmill. Apply the silicone

IMPORTANT STEPS
exercising and consult your doctor.
Proper usage of this product is
essential. Please read your manual
carefully before exercising.
Please keep all children away from
the equipment during use and when
equipment is unattended.
Always wear appropriate clothing,
including athletic shoes, when

Before beginning
How you begin your exercise
program depends on your physical
condition. If you have been inactive
for several years, or are severely
overweight, you must start slowly
and increase your time gradually, a
few minutes per week.
Initially you may be able to exercise
only for a few minutes in your target
zone. However, your aerobic fitness
will improve over the next six to eight
weeks. Don’t be discouraged if it
takes longer. It’s important to work
at your own pace. Ultimately, you’ll
be able to exercise continuously for
30 minutes. And the better your
aerobic fitness, the harder you will
have to work to stay in your target
zone. But remember these
essentials:
important step s
Monitor your pulse frequently. If you
do not have an electronic heart rate
monitor, have your physician show
you the proper way to manually check
your pulse by using your wrist or
neck. Establish your target heart
rate based on your age and
condition.
>Drink plenty of fluids during the
course of your routine. You must
replace the water content lost from
excessive exercising to avoid
dehydration. Avoid drinking large
amounts of cold liquids. Fluids should
be at room temperature when
consumed.
Make sure that all bolts and nuts are
tightened when equipment is in use.
Periodic maintenance is required on
all exercise equipment to keep it in
good condition.
>Contact your physician before
starting a workout or training
program. Have your doctor review
your training and diet programs to
advise you of a workout routine you
should adopt.
>Begin your training program slowly
with realistic goals that have been
set by you and your doctor.
>Supplement your program with
some type of aerobic exercise such
as walking, jogging, swimming,
dancing and/or bicycling.

Finding your pulse
To make sure your heart is beating
in its target zone, you’ll need to know
how to monitor your heart rate. The
easiest way is to feel the pulse in
the carotid artery on either side of

your neck, between the windpipe
and the large neck muscles. Count

the number of beats in ten seconds,
then multiply by six. This gives you
the number of beats per minute.
How fast should your heart beat
during aerobic exercise? Fast
enough to reach and stay in its
“target zone,” a range of beats per
minute that is largely determined by
your age and physical condition. To
determine your target zone, consult
