Use the Allen key to turn the screw on the left side of the end of the treadmill a quarter turn to the right (1). Run the treadmill for 1 to 2 minutes without a load. Repeat the process until the treadmill is exactly in the middle.
2. The treadmill turns to the right: start the treadmill, set the speed to 2 to 3 km/h without a load on the treadmill. Using the hexagonal key, turn the screw on the right side of the end of the treadmill a quarter turn to the right (2). Run the treadmill for 1 to 2 minutes without a load.
3. The treadmill has jammed: Use the Allen spanner to turn the screw on the right side of the end half a turn to the right and the screw on the left side of the end half a turn to the right as well. Repeat the process until the blockage is resolved (3).

MAINTENANCE

Safe and efficient use can only be achieved if the appliance is properly installed and maintained. It is your responsibility to ensure that the appliance is maintained regularly. Parts that have been used and/or damaged must be replaced before the appliance is used again. The appliance should only be used and stored indoors. Long-term exposure to weather and temperature/humidity changes can have a serious impact on the electrical components and moving parts of the unit. Always unplug the power cord from the unit before cleaning or servicing it.
Daily maintenance

• Clean and remove sweat and moisture after each use.
• Check that the unit is free of dust and dirt.
• Do not use aggressive cleaning agents and keep the device away from moisture.

Semi-annual maintenance

• Inspect all bolts and nuts connected to the moving parts of the unit. Tighten bolts and nuts as necessary and appropriate.
• Check the mobility of moving parts and components of the unit.

Use silicone spray if necessary and appropriate.
We recommend the following:

• Clean the unit after use.
• Use a dry cloth to clean the control panel and the areas around the on/off switch.
• Use a soft, clean cloth and detergent to remove stubborn marks and dirt from the unit.
• Store the unit in a safe, dry place away from heat and water.

CAUTION!

• Repairs must be carried out by a professional technician, unless otherwise specified by the supplier or manufacturer.
• To avoid slipping during exercise, the treadmill belt should not be too loose. To avoid abrasion between the roller and the treadmill and to ensure proper operation of the machine, the treadmill should not be too tight. The distance between the step and the belt can be adjusted. The distance between the step and the belt should be 50 to 75 mm on both sides.

Cleaning
General cleaning of the unit will extend its life. Keep the appliance clean by dusting it regularly. Regular maintenance will prolong the life of your appliance and prevent injuries! For more information, please visit https://www.virtufit.nl/service/faq/
CAUTION! Wear clean shoes to reduce the risk of soiling the machine. At least once a year, remove the cover to remove dust.

LUBRICATING THE TREADMILL

The treadmill is equipped with a low-maintenance, pre-lubricated treadmill. Wear and tear on the treadmill plays an important role in the operation and life of the treadmill, so it should be lubricated periodically. We recommend that you inspect the belt regularly. Contact us as soon as you notice any damage to the treadmill.
Recommended lubrication of the treadmill

• Low usage (less than 3 hours per week): once a year.
• Medium use (3 to 5 hours per week): every six months.
• Heavy use (more than 5 hours per week): every three months.

As a general rule : Lubricate if the mat appears dry. If in doubt, contact the manufacturer. The use of Vaseline (acid-free) or silicone oil is recommended for lubricating the treadmill.
Instruction

• Lift the mat.
• Apply two to three drops of silicone oil along the length of the treadmill.
• Turn on the treadmill and run for three minutes without stressing the treadmill (i.e. without standing on the treadmill).

CAUTION! Regular maintenance will extend the life of the treadmill and prevent injury!

TRAINING GUIDELINES (FIG. D, 1-5)

A successful training program includes a warm-up, the actual training and a cool-down. Perform the complete training program at least twice, but preferably three times a week and keep a rest day between training sessions. After a few months, the intensity of the training can be increased, for example to four or five times a week.
The warm-up
The purpose of a warm-up is to prepare the body for training and to reduce the risk of injury. Warm up your body for two to five minutes before starting a cardio or strength training session. Do exercises that increase the heart rate and warm up the working muscles. Examples of this type of activity are running, jogging, jumping jacks, skipping and running in place.
Stretching
Stretching while the muscles are warm is very important after a good warm-up and cool-down. It reduces the risk of injury. Stretching exercises should be held for 15-30 seconds. Here are some examples of stretching exercises:

• Toe touch (Fig. D-1)
• Inner thight stretch (Fig. D-2)
• Hamstring stretch (Fig. D-3)
• Achilles stretch (Fig. D-4)
• Side stretch (Fig. D-5)

Cooling down
The purpose of the cool-down is to return the body to its (near) normal resting position at the end of the workout. A good cool-down slowly reduces your heart rate and promotes recovery.
