17 Nov How to maintain My Mountain for a long time without any problems!

My Mountain, the best cardio exercise equipment!
It’s an equipment that hovers between first and second place in popularity at the gym
because of its high training tensity and effectiveness in lower body development.
Due to its compact size, it only takes up half of the installation space of a regular treadmill, so many people also use it at home.

But there’s a manager at the gym, but how do I manage My Mountain at home?
How to maintain My Mountain and use it for a long time without any problems!
Let’s check it out together!

My Mountain, regular inspection at least once every three months

1) Regular inspection at least once every three months
My Mountain is a precision machine that requires regular inspections.
It’s not cumbersome, so you don’t have to worry.
You just have to check once every three months!

① Check if there are any foreign substances or dust in the gaps and remove them.
② If you put oil between the running belt and the deck, the noise will decrease, and the movement will be smoother.
③ Check the tightness of the bolt. If it’s loose, tighten it firmly.
④ Please check that the electrical cord or the running belt is not worn out!

2) Cleaning instruction
Wipe off the dust on My Mountain with a dry, soft cloth.
If you leave dust as is, it will come into contact with human sweat,
dead skin cells, and oil, becoming sticky, and can damage the equipment.
But do not use ammonia or acid liquids. It can deteriorate the material.
Before use, check if any foreign substances or dust are on the running belt or deck
and remove them to maintain its perfect condition!

My Mountain, if something feels off

Here’s how you can repair it on your own after checking the equipment’s condition
without the help of a professional.

1) When the belt is not centered
A treadmill like My Mountain has a running deck that is a rolling type, which can occasionally shift in position.
What if the belt is not centered?
It can cause the machine’s failure, so make sure to fix it immediately.
Pause My Mountain and remove the safe key.
Use an L-wrench to adjust the roller bolt while turning it.
Set My Mountain’s speed to 1.5km/h and try ¼ turns.

2) When the belt speed is slow
You can encounter the rolling speed to be slower than usual.
If the belt speed is slow, you could fall and get hurt, so it’s important to adjust it before use.
Pause My Mountain and remove the safe key. Use an L-wrench to turn the roller bolt at the front of My Mountain.
The appropriate tension is when you pull both sides of the belt, and it can lift about 5-7cm from the footrest.
Once you’ve adjusted the tension, leave the equipment idle for about 3 minutes at a speed of 5km/h.

My Mountain, how to deal with other problems

1) When you hear friction under the equipment
Foreign objects or obstructions often get caught between the floor and the running deck.
Common objects are lost Bluetooth earphones and water bottles.
These objects get in the way of the equipment’s smooth rolling and damage the floor.
Please check if there’s anything stuck under the equipment and use it after ensuring the deck is flat and parallel to the floor.

2) When it slows down for no reason, or the belt and monitor heat up
Please check when to put the running machine oil (lubricant).
It’s best to put oil once every 1-2 months. Instead of applying it on the belt, apply it between the belt and the deck.
It’s recommended not to get on the equipment right after applying oil but to leave it idle at a 2 or 3-level speed.
*If you put too much oil at once because you don’t want to keep applying often, the oil may overflow and spill on the floor.

3) When the deck shakes
You may have to consider the deck possibly being broken/worn out.
The running belt and deck are components, so they need to be replaced periodically.
(It’s generally recommended to replace once every three years depending on the frequency of use, the intensity of use, and the user’s weight.)
If you feel that the cushion is weak or feels off when you step on the edge, it’s good to consider replacing it.
The deck is quite heavy, and the condition of the bolts and rubber supporting the deck also need to be checked.
Therefore, please do not take them apart by yourself, and make sure to ask a professional.

4) When you need help from other professionals
If you get stuck, the equipment is damaged by pets, or the wires are damaged, please ask a professional for help.
Some people use it by just wrapping the damaged area with tape.
This is dangerous as it can cause electric shock and fire.
Please be careful as it can also create problems with the power outlet,
suddenly pausing the equipment during use and causing injury.

Isn’t it easy to maintain My Mountain?
The more carefully you wipe, oil, and tighten, the stronger and safer it will be.
Don’t forget to take good care of My Mountain, your trustworthy cardio companion!
