2. Two Months.
A. Check Chain tension
after the second month of use. Although the chains used on the
Treadwall are designed for much harder use than the Treadwall will give them, they will
stretch slightly upon breaking in. This causes the wall to become stuck. Reversing the wall
slightly frees it up, but it will soon stick again. This is caused by the panels jamming as
they try to re-enter the channels near the bottom at the back. Consequently, we
recommend taking the time after the second month to check the tension.
See the Service Bulletin # 20.

B. Cleaning the holds
is usually scheduled every two months. However individual usage
varies, and the amount of dirt build-up on holds has no long-term effect on the holds
themselves.
Use a dishwasher to clean the dirt from holds.
If a dishwasher is not sufficient, use a scrub brush to loosen the dirt.
C. Examine the Harness Cord
occasionally to check wear on the cord.
Check area of cord under the cord locks attached to the harness. If the
outer sheath is frayed, replace as soon as convenient.
The Harness Cord runs from the Harness to the Upper Pulley bar;
Replacement of the cord does not involve re-threading the cord inside the
Upper Pulley Bar.

A. Check adjustment of Main Channels
relative to the ends of the moving
climbing panels.
Look down watch the panel ends as they round the bottom: does either end
touch the channel?
By adjusting the relative tension on x-braces that run diagonally between
the two channels inside the wall, you can shift the channels relative the
moving wall.
Access the turnbuckles through the excess holes on the lower part of each
channel. The turnbuckles should be wired closed. Remove the wire, tighten
turnbuckle on the opposite side of the rubbing panels, and recheck for
clearance at the panel ends.
Ideally both ends should pass with equal clearance. You may have to
adjust both turnbuckles slightly to achieve this. Re-wire turnbuckles closed.
