Does the issue
persist?
NO
Hydraulic Shock
The shocks
feel like they
recoil too fast.
They are
banging
against the top.
The shocks
are clunking.
The shocks
are bottoming
out. They don’t
return high
enough
between
steps.
The shocks do
not drop down
enough when
in use.
One or both of
the shocks do
not return all
the way up to
the top.
The shocks
are leaking.
Do the shocks
bang against the
top when they
recoil?
Lower the
setting by
rotating the
adjustable dial
towards
minimum
It’s normal for
one or both
of the shocks to
not go all
the way up to
the top. It will
not affect
normal usage of
the machine.
Replace the
shocks
Note: The dynamics of the
system is a function of
your weight, walking
speed, and shock
settings.
Rotate the adjustable
dial towards minimum.
If one or both of the
shocks are so low it’s
causing it to bottom
out, then follow “the
shocks are bottoming
out” path.
If the issue persists
throughout the
entire workout,
replace the shocks with a
set of extra travel shocks.
Note: The dynamics of the
system is a function of
your weight, walking
speed, and shock
settings.
Increase
speed. The
shocks will
bottom out if
you are walking
at a slower
speed.
Decrease
speed. The
shocks will not
go up and
down very
much if you
are walking at
a higher speed.
If the issue persists
throughout the
entire workout,
replace the shocks with a
set of standard travel
shocks.
If the issue persists
throughout the
entire workout,
replace the shocks with a
set of extra travel shocks.
