BELT

Your treadmill

features

a

walking

belt

coated

with

PERFORMANT

LUBE',

a

high-performance

lubricant.

During

the

first

few

hours

of

use,

it

is

normal

for

a

small

amount

of

white

powder

to

appear

on

the

foot

rails

and

the

walking

platform.

The

white

powder

is

ex-

cess

high-performance

lubricant

from

the

walking

belt.

IMPORTANT:

Never

apply

silicone

spray

or

other

substances

to

the

walking

belt

or

the

walking

plat-

form.

They

will

deteriorate

the

belt

and

cause

excessive

wear.

bility

of

your
