Removal
If individual slats on the running belt need to be replaced, remove the slat(s) by the following steps:
1.
Disconnect the treadmill from the power supply and remove the side cover.
2.
Move the running surface until the slat to be replaced is at the front underneath the treadmill.
The screws are most easily accessible from this position.
3.
Remove the two screws and plates on either side.
4.
Then remove the slat crosswise off the belt.
WARNING
Use New Parts When Replacing Slats!
When replacing the slats, it is vital that only new parts are used.
Re-using old screws can cause the new slat to come loose from
the running surface which can cause severe injury.
Replacement
Once the individual slat has been removed, authorized replacement slats can be installed as follows:
1.
Place the new slat on the running surface crosswise.
2.
Screw in 2 NEW screws on either side. (
Note: All 4 screws must be positioned in the slat before
tightening individual screws.)
3.
Re-mount the side covers.
