SYMPTOM: The displays of the console do not
function properly
a.
Remove the key from the console and
UNPLUG
THE POWER CORD.
Next, remove the
fi
ve #8 x
3/4" Screws (3), and carefully pivot off the Motor
Hood (39).
Next, locate the Reed Switch (8) and the Magnet
(65) on the left side of the Pulley (31). 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 3 mm
(1/8 in.).
If necessary, loosen the #8 x 3/4" Screw
(3), move the Reed Switch slightly, and then
retighten the Screw. Reattach the Motor Hood
(57), and walk on the treadmill for a few minutes to
check for a correct speed reading.
SYMPTOM: The walking belt slows when walked on
a.
Make sure that the power cord is plugged into a
properly earthed outlet (see page 7). If an exten-
sion cord is needed, use only a 3-conductor,
14-gauge (2 mm
2
) cord that is no longer than 5 ft.
(1.5 m).
b.
If the walking belt is overtightened, treadmill per-
formance may decrease and the walking belt may
become damaged. Remove the key and
UNPLUG
THE POWER CORD.
Using the hex key, turn both
idler roller screws (A) counterclockwise, 1/4 of a
turn. When the walking belt is properly tightened,
you should be able to lift each edge of the walking
belt 2 to 3 in. (5 to 7 cm) off the walking platform.
Be careful to keep the walking belt centered. Then,
plug in the power cord, insert the key, and walk on
the treadmill for a few minutes. Repeat until the
walking belt is properly tightened.
c.
Your treadmill features a walking belt coated with
high-performance lubricant.
IMPORTANT: Never
apply silicone spray or other substances to
the walking belt or the walking platform unless
instructed to do so by an authorized service
representative. Such substances may deterio-
rate the walking belt and cause excessive wear.
If you suspect that the walking belt needs more
lubricant, see the front cover of this manual.
d.
If the walking belt still slows when walked on, see
the front cover of this manual.
