Service manual Valiant treadmill V1.00 24
3.2 Replacement instruction grade potentiometer
You can find the grade potentiometer at the right side of the treadmill under the walking deck.
Fig.1: Location Grade potentiometer Fig.2: Bottom side treadmill
If, for some reason, the grade potentiometer is broken, the treadmill could be in a specific
angle. To change the potentiometer, the best position would be the 25 % angle. Sometimes the
treadmill doesn’t allow you to set the angle to 25 % because of the defective potentiometer.
e.g. “STOP” will be displayed.
In this case you should lift the rear end of the treadmill (the opposite side of where the motor
is located.) Place this end on a stable frame so you have space to work under the treadmill.
