Before contacting your dealer for aid, please review the following information. It may save you 
both time and expense. This list includes common problems that may not be covered under 
the treadmill’s warranty. 

 
 

PROBLEM                                                                    SOLUTION/CAUSE

Treadmill belt does not stay centered 

Treadmill belt hesitates when walked/run on

         A user may be walking while favoring or putting more weight 

on either the left or right foot. If this walking pattern is natural, 
track the belt slightly off-center to the side opposite from the 
belt movement. See General Maintenance section on 
Treadmill belt Tension. Adjust as necessary. 

 
Motor is not responsive / Display is lit

needed.

 

 
Treadmill will only achieve approximately   

3 mph but shows higher speed on display

            This indicates motor should be receiving power to   

 

operate. Low AC voltage to treadmill. Do not use an 
extension cord. If an extension cord is required it should be 
as short as possible and heavy duty 16 gauge minimum. Low 
household voltage. Contact an electrician or your dealer. A 
minimum of 

240 volt

touched (on a cold day)while walking/running
