Belt and Running Deck

Running Belt

The running belt supplied with each treadmill is of the highest quality, offering superior traction and low noise under extreme conditions. It is therefore important to maintain each running belt periodically by observing that no cuts have appeared over time, and that the running belt has not shifted to one side of the deck surface. If the running belt constantly tracks (or moves) to one side of the deck, you must adjust the alignment bolts placed at the rear of the running belt.

See Belt Alignment for complete procedure.

Deck Surface

The running deck needs to remain free of any loose items that may become trapped between the running belt and the rollers. Avoid dropping liquids on the deck as this may cause gum up problem on the belt.

Under extreme conditions resulting in heavy wear and tear on the deck surface, it may be necessary to remove the deck and turn it over, or turn it back-to-front to expose a fresh surface. The deck is especially designed to offer four reversible sides for a longer life use of the deck.

Please contact your Bodyguard® Dealer for servicing the deck.

Lubricant Application
1. Clean the deck surface and the inside part of the belt with a dry piece of fabric.
Clean the belt ﬁrst by using a long piece of fabric across the belt and start the
belt so it makes two co mplete turns. Then, release the tension on the rear roller
to be able to clean the deck surface of any debris or remaining wax.
2. Open the lubricant supplied by your dealer. Place the lubricant tube in the middle
of the belt at about 15 inches from the hood cover. Step on the treadmill and
step down with your feet where the lubricant tube is located under the belt to
make sure that most of the lubricant is now spread evenly on the deck surface.
DO NOT START THE TREADMILL YET.
3. Remove the LUBE TUBE from under the belt and put the tension back again on
the rear roller. Stand where you applied the lubricant and press JustGoTM/ENTER
key to start the belt turning at 0.5 mph (or 0.8 km/h). Let the belt bring you a the
back of the treadmill and come back where you were standing. Do this twice so
the lubricant will be present on the total surface of the deck. Start the treadmill
and make sure the belt alignment is correct. Refer to the owner’s manual if any
problem occurs.
