Owner’s Manual: Maintenance 45
Periodically, clean the running belt using a soft nylon scrub
brush. Frequently vacuum the floor underneath the unit to
prevent the accumulation of dust and dirt, which can affect
the smooth operation of the unit.
Storing the Chest Strap
Store the chest strap where dust and dirt cannot accumulate
on it, such as a closet or drawer. Be sure to keep the chest
strap protected from extremes in temperature. Do not store it
in an area 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.
Checking the Alignment of the
Running Belt
Proper belt alignment allows the belt to remain centered and
ensures smooth operation. Realigning the belt takes a few
simple adjustments. If you are unsure about this procedure,
call Precor Customer Support. Refer to Obtaining Service.
CAUTION: Special care must be taken when aligning the
running belt. Turn OFF the treadmill while adjusting or
working near the rear roller. Remove any loose clothing
and tie back your hair. Be very careful to keep your
fingers and any other object clear of the belt and rollers,
especially in front of the roller and behind the deck. The
treadmill will not stop immediately if an object becomes
caught in the belt or rollers.
1. The treadmill has adjustable rear feet. Make sure that the
running surface is level. If the treadmill is placed on an
uneven surface, adjusting the rear feet can help, but will
not compensate for extremely uneven surfaces.
2. Turn the unit ON.
3. Stand beside the treadmill and press QUICKSTART.
4. If needed, enter the password by pressing the following
keys in sequence INCLINE , SPEED , SPEED .
The running belt starts automatically after a 3-second
countdown appears on the display.
