REPLACING THE WALKING PLATFORM AND THE
WALKING BELT
Inspect the walking platform periodically for wear. If
there is any wood showing through the phenolic coat-
ing, or if the surface is damaged, the walking platform
should be turned over or replaced. In addition, inspect
the walking belt for wear. If the walking belt is cracking,
tearing, or folding, it should be replaced. Follow the
instructions below to turn over or replace the walking
platform and/or to replace the walking belt. As you
remove screws, make sure to note which screws
you remove from each part.
1. Remove the key and unplug the power cord.
Next, remove the two indicated 5/16" x 1/2" Screws
(16), and lift off the Motor Hood (66).
2. Remove the four indicated 1/4" x 3/4" Screws (35)
and the two 1/4" x 1/2" Screws (138). Then, remove
the Rear Cap (59).
3. Remove the two 1/4" x 3/4" Screws (35), the two
3/8" Locknuts (38), the four 3/8" Washers (32), and
the two 3/8" x 1 1/2" Shoulder Bolts (14).
Next, remove the two 3/8" x 3" Screws (7), the two
3/8" Lock Washers (not shown), and the two 3/8"
