TROUBLESHOOTING

Most treadmill problems can be solved by following the steps below. Find the symptom that applies, and
follow the steps listed. If further assistance is needed, please call our Customer Service Department toll-
free at 1-800-999-3756, Monday through Friday, 6 a.m. until 6 p.m. Mountain Time (excluding holidays).

PROBLEM: The power does not turn on

SOLUTION:

a. Make sure that the power cord is plugged into a surge suppressor, and that the surge suppressor

is plugged into a properly grounded outlet (see page 9). Use only a single-outlet surge suppressor
that meets all of the specifications described on page 9. Important: The treadmill is not compatible
with GFCI-equipped outlets.   

b. After the power cord has been plugged in, make sure that the key is fully inserted into the console.

c. Check the reset/off circuit breaker located on the

treadmill frame near the power cord. If the switch
protrudes as shown, the circuit breaker has tripped.
To reset the circuit breaker, wait for five minutes
and then press the switch back in. 

PROBLEM: The power turns off during use

SOLUTION:

a. Check the reset/off circuit breaker (see the drawing above). If the circuit breaker has tripped, wait

for five minutes and then press the switch back in.

b. Make sure that the power cord is plugged in. If the power cord is plugged in, unplug it, wait for

five minutes, and then plug it back in.

c. Remove the key from the console. Reinsert the key fully into the console.

d. If the treadmill still will not run, please call our Customer Service Department, toll-free.

PROBLEM: The displays of the console do not function properly

SOLUTION:

a. Remove the key from the console and 

unplug the

power cord.

Carefully tip the treadmill down as

shown in drawing a. Remove the Screws (39, 83 and
3) from the hood. Raise the Uprights (69) and care-
fully remove the hood. 

Locate the Reed Switch (10) and the Magnet (7) on
the left side of the Pulley (8). Turn the Pulley until the
Magnet is aligned with the Reed Switch. 

Make sure

that the gap between the Magnet and the Reed
Switch is about 1/8”.

If necessary, loosen the 1/2”

Screw (67) and move the Reed Switch slightly.
Retighten the Screw. Re-attach the hood, and run the
treadmill for a few minutes to check for a correct
speed reading.
