Maintaining the 904 Total Body Treadmill

The 904 treadmill requires little maintenance. Periodically, you need to clean the treadmill and possibly realign the running belt. Instructions for these procedures are provided in this section. At the end of this section, you will find information about how to receive additional service.

Cleaning the Treadmill

Before a workout, use a damp, soft cloth to clean the side rails and handrails. This procedure helps to remove any dirt or dust that might affect the smooth operation of the treadmill.

Important: Do not pour water or spray liquids on the treadmill. Allow the treadmill to dry completely before using.

Storing the Treadmill

The 904 treadmill has wheels at the rear of the treadmill for moving and storage purposes and provides locking mechanisms for the handrails. To store the treadmill in a horizontal (base on floor) position, keep in mind that you need a vertical clearance of 14 to 20 inches if you plan to store it underneath something. You can also position the treadmill in a vertical position on its front lift bar to open up floor space when the treadmill is not is use.

To store the treadmill in a horizontal position (base on the floor), take the following steps:

Note: Perform the following steps on one handrail at a time.

1.Place a handrail in an upright position and secure it using the locking pin.

2.Loosen both T-knobs. Do not remove the T-knobs.

3.Hold onto a handrail with one hand and with the other hand pull the locking pin out and let it hang from the wire loop that is around the T-knob.

4.Lower the handrail alongside the deck. To avoid damaging the foam grips, do not force the handrails over the side rails.

5.Repeat steps 1 through 4 on the opposite handrail.

6.Lock both handrails into the lowered position by tightening both T-knobs securely.

7.Move to the front of the treadmill. Place both hands on the front lift bar.

Important: Note that the treadmill weighs approximately 60 pounds. To avoid injury, ask for assistance before lifting the treadmill.

8.Lift the front of the treadmill off the floor and on its wheels roll it to the storage location.
