PREVENTATIVE MAINTENANCE
Star Trac strongly recommends performing regular preventive maintenance on your STAR TRAC S SERIES TREADMILL. Without regularly scheduled maintenance, normal wear and tear may cause cumulative effects, such as misalignment or premature wear. This may result in downtime. For this reason, we highly recommend following the maintenance schedules.. Additionally, unusual symptoms, such as display codes and blown circuit breakers, should be reported to STAR TRAC PRODUCT SUPPORT DEPARTMENT at (800)
DAILY MAINTENANCE
∙Remove excessive accumulations of dust, dirt, and other substances by using a clean soft cloth and a
∙NOTE: DO NOT spray the cleaner directly onto the display board or heart rate grips. Do not use liquid cleaner under the running belt.
∙To ensure the longevity of the running belt, clean under the running belt with a soft, dry cloth. To clean, slide the cloth between the running belt and deck from one side of the frame to the other (you may need a ruler or similar tool to slide the towel under the belt), then, holding the edges of the cloth, pull the cloth from the headroller down to the tailroller.
∙NOTE: DO NOT clean the running belt by activating the treadmill.
∙Inspect the running belt for alignment and tension. Do not tighten the running belt every day. If you notice slipping, adjust the running belt tension using the instructions provided in
∙Ensure the power cord is not under the treadmill and is positioned away from the elevation screws. This will prevent the power cord from being pinched or from binding up the elevation screws.
WEEKLY MAINTENANCE
∙Vacuum the floor under and around the treadmill. Do so with the treadmill at its maximum elevation or moved to another spot.
∙NOTE: Take care not to damage the power cord while vacuuming.
∙Inspect the inside surface of the running belt and the top surface of the running deck for unusual wear. Check the belt for a “glazed” condition (a smooth almost melted appearance). If the running belt appears glazed, replace the running belt and flip or replace the running deck.
∙NOTE: Never install a new running belt on a used deck.
∙Inspect the display and handrail screws for security, and retighten if necessary.
∙Inspect the display panel/keypad for wear.
BI-WEEKLY MAINTENANCE
WARNING: To prevent personal injury, always turn the treadmill off and unplug the power cord before performing maintenance inside the motor compartment.
∙Remove the motor shroud and vacuum around the motor and its ventilation holes. Avoid bumping or damaging parts normally protected by the shroud.
MONTHLY MAINTENANCE
∙Wipe the elevation screws down with a clean dry cloth and coat them with silicon lubricant spray to prevent rust accumulation.
