Once a year, you should remove the black motor hood and vacuum out dirt that may accumulate. UNPLUG POWER CORD BEFORE THIS TASK. BELT ADJUSTMENTS: Treadbelt Tension Adjustment - Belt tension is not critical for most users. It is very important for joggers and runners in order to provide a smooth, steady running surface. Adjustment must be made from the right side of the rear roller in order to adjust tension with the 6 mm Allen wrench provided in the parts package. The adjustment bolt is located at the end of the right side rail as noted in diagram below. Tighten the rear roller only enough to prevent slippage at the front roller. Turn the tread-belt tension adjustment bolt in increments of 1/4 turn and inspect for proper tension. When an adjustment is made to the belt tension, you must also make a tracking adjustment to compensate for the change in belt tension. This is accomplished by turning both the tension and tracking Allen bolts an equal amount. This adjustment is accomplished by turning both bolts clockwise no more than a 1/4 turn at a time. DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN .. Over tightening will cause belt damage and premature bearing failure. General Maintenance Note: Adjustment is through small hole in end cap. Tracking / Tension Adjustment Tracking / Tension Adjustment TREADBELT TRACKING ADJUSTMENT: The performance of your treadmill is dependent on the frame running on a reasonably level surface. If the frame is not level, the front and back roller cannot run parallel, and constant belt adjustment may be necessary. The treadmill is designed to keep the tread-belt reasonably centered while in use. It is normal for some belts to drift near one side while the belt is running with no one on it. After a few minutes of use, the tread-belt should have a tendency to center itself. If, during use, the belt continues to move toward one side, adjustments are necessary. TO SET TREADBELT TRACKING: A 6 mm Allen wrench is provided to adjust the rear roller. Make tracking adjustments from the left side only. Set belt speed at approximately 2 to 3 mph. A small adjustment can make a dramatic difference. Turn the bolt only a 1/4 turn and wait a few minutes for the belt to adjust itself. Continue to make 1/4 rotation turns until the belt stabilizes in the center of the running deck. The belt may require periodic tracking adjustment depending on use and walking/running characteristics. Some users will affect tracking differently. Expect to make adjustments as required to center the tread-belt. Adjustments will become less of a maintenance concern as the belt is used. Proper belt tracking is an owner responsibility common with all treadmills. ATTENTION: DAMAGE TO THE RUNNING BELT RESULTING FROM IMPROPER TRACKING / TENSION ADJUSTMENTS IS NOT COVERED UNDER THE SPIRIT WARRANTY. MAINTENANCE MODE: If you want to set the Speed and Distance to Metric or if there is a problem with the speed and you would like to perform the calibration procedure, use the Maintenance Mode. To enter Maintenance Mode press, and hold for 5 seconds, the Start, Stop and Mode keys while installing the safety key. • The dot matrix display will now be showing the word SET • The Speed window will show a number for the roller size, press the up and/or Down key to adjust the roller size. The roller size for the ET188 is 1.8 • The Speed window will also display the setting for M (miles) or Km (Kilometers). Press the Stop key to change between M and Km. • To run the calibration procedure, press the Start key. o The display will show a number for the lowest speed setting (for miles the number should be 0.5). Adjust the low speed setting and press Start. o The display will show a number for the top speed setting (for Miles it should be 8.0). Adjust the top speed setting and press Start to begin calibration. o The belt will start automatically and will adjust speeds between low and high. Be careful because the belt will change speeds without warning. When the calibration is finished the display will return to the start-up screen. 13 ET188 14 ET188 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: When ordering make sure to specify silicone lubricating kit, not paraffin wax. 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 reg...
