km) of use.
TOOLS & MATERIALS
1 Bottle of Wax Powder
1 Clean Towel,
1 Paint Stick or Ruler

PROCEDURE
Apply wax powder while belt and deck are

belt down to wipe the remaining belt.
TIP: Fold the dirty towel & shake into trash.
3. LIFT BELT: Lift the left side (facing display) of the belt, about 12 inches down from the
cover (see figure). Hold the belt up to elevated the belt from the deck.
4. SPREAD WAX: Flip up the nozzle on the cap of the wax bottle. Point the nozzle at the
deck. Be sure that the bottle is tilted at a downward angle. Squeeze the wax bottle twice

6. Repeat steps 3 through 5, on the right side of the belt/deck.
7. WALK: Power ON the treadmill. Start the treadmill at 1 mph and walk on all sections of

2. Enter “Maintenance” mode, by holding down the “0”, “2” and “Start” keys at the same time,
