guides so you may not need to buy anything.
Treadmill motor controller
A motor
controller is a device managing the performance of an electric motor. In
commercial treadmills, most of the motors are AC motors and the controller is
an inverter, so that the regulation of motor speed is based on current
frequency. Home use controllers are based on PWM technique (Pulse Width
Modulation). In this case, the speed regulation of the motor is based on output
voltage (higher voltage for higher speed).
There are different models of treadmill motor
controllers used in the home fitness equipment industry. The most common brands
are: Endex, AsTek, Sunway. Other brands are Greenmaster, Shanghai eWay,
Motordriver, LIEO. When it comes to
replacing it may be difficult to find the replacement part if you don't rely on
a supplier with wide variety and extensive experience in this specific field. Treadmill
Parts is the most complete one-stop shop for purchasing of treadmill spare
parts. You can find at the following link the treadmill
motor controllers catalogue
Controller Longverve
Treadmill motors
The motor is an integral part
of the treadmill that allows it to function correctly. Commercial Treadmill
motors are heavy duty AC motors and they almost never require replacement. The
most common motor type used in home fitness equipment is
-
- Great torque
- Comes with 2 wires to the motor
- Includes brushes and flywheel with bracket.
- range from 80-120VDC but as high as 260VDC.
- Variable voltage and speed.
- Some come with 2 additional blue wires that are part of a thermal protective circuit.
Depending on the motor size and quality and on usage, maintenance such
as brushes replacement has to be done on regular basis. Sometimes the motor has
to be replaced, especially when it has been overheated due to heavy use. Need a
replacement motor or motor brushes? Browse motors here:

Is your treadmill running belt worn, ripped or curling up around
the edges? Does it slow down when weight is applied to it during your workout?
If so, it probably needs replacing! It’s worth checking the lubrication and the
wear of the deck beforehand, if it shows sign of wear it may need replacing the
walking deck as well as the running belt.
Check on our blog http://www.treadmillsrepair.co.uk/ to see how
easily you can replace running belt and running deck.
On our treadmill parts
shop you’ll find most common high-quality commercial grade belt types for
machines such as Proform, Reebok, Quantum, Roger Black and many other brands.
We can also deliver tailor-made running belts. Treadmills can cost up to £1,000,
so why not just replace the running belt for a fraction of the cost? For more
information please visit our Treadmill parts
website.
Treadmill safety key
Treadmill safety keys are very important and even vital part of
treadmill operation. If you use a treadmill without a safety key you run the
risk of extreme damage to yourself. If you fall down during workout, the
treadmill will keep running and this could be very dangerous. Most of the
treadmills will stop and show an error code if used without it.
Most keys are magnetic and there are a variety of keys available
that fit many machines such as Epic, Healthrider, Reebok, FreeMotion,
Nordictrack and many other treadmills brands. If you have children, it’s better
to remove safety key from treadmill, so that they won’t use it without adult
supervision. Need a safety key for your treadmill? You can find more
information on our Treadmill parts website.

For the lubrication of your
treadmill
used only 100% silicone treadmill oil
spray and avoid products that use additives and petroleum distillates.
The icon shown in fi g.1 will appear to guide you how to lubricate the running
deck.
After lubricating, press the reduce speed button and reduce incline at the same
time the icon will disappear from the display.
The icon shown in fig.2 will appear for one minute after turning on the
treadmill to remind you to carry out the monthly checks and cleaning of the deck.
After performing the maintenance, by pressing the decrease speed and reduce incline
together the icon will disappear from the display.
Note: You must follow the directions and the service intervals in the manual because the icons are only
indicative
To ensure a long life and maximum efficiency of your treadmill you must
persevere with the routine maintenance.
In addition to what is stated in the manual, you should follow the following
steps.
Before proceeding, make sure the treadmill
is turned off and unplugged from the mains. Fold the tool into a
vertical position.
Each week:
Remove dust deposits, dirt or traces of sweat marks with a damp cloth. Do not use detergents under the walking belt. Do not pour water or let moisture in between the edge of the display panel and the console.
Every 20 hours of operation or at least every two weeks:
The degree of lubrication of the running deck, must be greasy to the touch. If the deck is dry proceed to lubricate according to the guidelines of the instruction manual:
- Lift the left edge of the belt
- Lubricate with two squirts through the canister of treadmill oil spray
- apply the lubricant onto the lower part of the belt (see diagram), do not apply it on the black rubber running surface!
- After lubrication remove any excess silicone that could have been deposited to the side of the belt, or on the frame
- Try to spray the treadmill lubricant as close as possible to the centre of the deck.
- Start the machine and walk a few minutes at low speed (3-4 km / h) to distribute the lubricant evenly over the entire surface of the deck

Monthly treadmill maintenance
Each month:
Turn off the treadmill and wait at least 60 seconds, remove the side screws and lift the motor casing. Wait until all the red LEDs are completely turned off.
Clean the motor and the area underneath. If it is not cleaned adequately it can impair the functioning of the machine.
Wipe or vacuum any dust that has accumulated through use. Inspect the belt to check that there is no excessive wear.
Regularly inspect the components of the support structure for verification that the mounting screws are not loose, and tighten if necessary. They are available at the following link consumable parts for the maintenance of the treadmill (walking belt, running belt, lubricant).
lubrication of the treadmill
Regular lubrication can prevent excessive wear on the motor and motor control board which may lead to breakage after a short while. Although the base comes lubricated from the manufacturer, it is a good idea to lubricate when you use it for the first time, in case it has dried between the time of manufacture and the time of purchase. Moreover, it is always a good idea to lubricate it when the tool has not been used for many months (for example in the summer period). It is recommended, eventually to avoid over-lubricating, the accumulation of lubricant in fact tarnishes the tape and does not bring any benefits.
The maintenance of a treadmill is a task that must be performed regularly, but not excessively.
Note: Unplug the power cord before removing the motor cover.
Note: When performing the lubrication underneath, make sure the treadmill is placed on a surface that is easy to clean. After lubricating the bottom of the treadmill, wipe the excess silicone off the mat and frame. The silicone spray Silic One can also be used to lubricate the metal parts as it gives shine and prevents the formation of rust.

Treadmill Belt: how do you take the right size for a replacement
Taking the size of the running belt (also called walking belt or walking bed) is not always easy. Here you can find some suggestions how to take it in the right way.
Preliminary notes
1) The size of belts is almost always meant in mm (1 inch =25.4 millimeters)
2) The suppliers refer to belt size as installed at nominal tension (approx. 1-1.1 lbs).
3) It's always good to take the belt size when it's installed in the treadmill. In fact the regulation position is as much important as the belt size.
4) Beware of the size written on the user manual. Most of the time it's the running area or it's wrong.
5) Belts standard stretch 1-1.5% after installation but could stretch more after long usage.
6) All treadmills have regulations so that different length belts can be used. Most of commercial treadmills have double regulation (a front regulation in addition to the rear one)
How to take the size of your running belt
a) stick some adhesive tape on the belt (rubber side) or use a pen on the back of the belt (texture side) to mark the starting position.
b) use a flexible meter and take the size from the starting position until you can. Add another mark on the belt.
d) move the belt and do again b) until you take the total length of the belt.
Usually, home belts are 2100 to 3000 mm, commercial 2800 to 3550 mm length. So to make it easy I mark the belt every 1 meter (1000 mm).
Now check the belt regulation bolts, by removing one of both the end caps
i) if everything is ok, the two regulation bolts should be in a very similar position
ii) the regulation bolts are 50 to 70 mm long, this allows you to use very different belts (up to 100/140 mm). In fact, each mm of regulation of the bolt is 2 mm of belt length difference (since it's double sided).
iii) the belt should have at least 1 cm left for back regulation
Finally choose the right belt
Look on our treadmill belts shop for the standard sizes. Find the ones nearer to your size. Choose the best according to the actual bolt position.
