Cleaning the Equipment, Storing the Chest Strap

Cleaning the Equipment

Most of the working mechanisms are protected inside the hood and base of the treadmill. However, for efficient operation, the treadmill relies on low friction. To keep the friction low, the unit’s running belt, staging platforms, and internal mechanisms must be as clean as possible.

Precor recommends the treadmill be cleaned before and after each workout. Use mild soap and water to dampen a soft cloth and wipe all exposed surfaces. This helps remove any dust or dirt.

CAUTION: Do not use any acidic cleaners. Doing so will weaken the paint or powder coatings and void the Precor Limited Warranty. Never pour water or spray liquids on any part of the treadmill. Allow the treadmill to dry completely before using.

Frequently vacuum the floor underneath the unit to prevent the accumulation of dust and dirt, which can affect the smooth operation of the unit. Use a soft nylon scrub brush to clean the running belt.

Storing the Chest Strap

Store the chest strap in a place where it remains free of dust and dirt such as, in a closet or drawer. Be sure to protect the chest strap from extremes in temperature. Do not store it in a place that may be exposed to temperatures below 32° F (0° C).

To clean the chest strap, use a sponge or soft cloth dampened in mild soap and water. Dry the surface thoroughly with a clean towel.
