BELT / DECK LUBRICATION:
Do not lubricate with other than Spirit approved lubricant. Your treadmill comes with one tube of
lubricant and extra tubes can be ordered directly from Spirit. There are commercially available
lube kits, but the only one currently approved by Spirit is Lube-N-Walk. These kits come with an
application wand that makes applying the lubrication easier. The kits can be purchased from Spirit
or directly from Lube-N-Walk here: http://www.jadfitness.com/
Keeping the deck lubricated at the recommended intervals ensures the longest life possible for
your treadmill. If the lubricant dries out, the friction between the belt and deck rises and places
undue stress on the drive motor, drive belt and electronic motor control board, which could result
in catastrophic failure of these expensive components. Failure to lubricate the deck at regular
intervals may void the warranty.
The deck comes pre-lubricated and subsequent lubrication should be performed every 180 hours
of use, or every three months, whichever comes first. The console has a built in lubrication
reminder indicator that lights every 180 hours of use. To lubricate the deck with the tube of
lubricant supplied it will be necessary to loosen the walking belt. Using the 6 mm allen wrench
supplied, loosen the two rear roller adjustment bolts -- located in the rear end caps enough to
get your hand under the belt (5 10 turns). Make sure to loosen both bolts the same amount of
turns and also remember how many turns, because when finished you will need to tighten the
bolts back to the point they were before.
Once the belt is loose, wipe the deck with a clean lint free cloth to remove any dirt. Apply the
whole tube of lubricant onto the deck surface about 18 inches from the motor cover. Squeeze out
the contents of the tube across the deck (parallel to the motor cover) in about a one foot line, like
toothpaste on a toothbrush. The one foot line should be in the middle of the deck at approximately
equal distance from both side edges of the belt. You want the lubricant to be applied about the
spot that your feet would hit the belt as you are walking. This should be about 18 inches from the
motor cover, but you may want to walk on the treadmill before loosening the belt to note where
your feet land on the belt. If you mostly run on the treadmill the spot where your feet land may be
different from walking.
Once the lubricant is applied, tighten the rear roller bolts the same amount of turns as when you
loosened them. Run the treadmill at about 6 mph without walking on it for about a minute or two
to make sure the belt stays in the middle of the deck. If the belt tracks to one side then follow the
belt tracking instructions to remedy. Now the deck is lubricated and you should walk, not run, on
the treadmill immediately for at least 5 minutes to ensure the lubricant is evenly distributed. If you
purchase a Lube-N-Walk kit, follow the instructions that come with it to apply the lubrication.
