PROBLEM: The walking belt slips when walked on

SOLUTION: a. If the walking belt slips when walked on, first remove the key and UNPLUG THE POWER CORD. Using the allen wrench, turn both rear roller adjustment bolts clockwise, 1/4 of a turn. When the walking belt is cor- rectly tightened, you should be able to lift each side of the walking belt 3 to 4 inches off the walking platform. Be careful to keep the walking belt centered. Plug in the power cord, insert the key and carefully walk on the treadmill for a few minutes. Repeat until the walk- ing belt is properly tightened.

PROBLEM: The displays of the console do not function properly

a

SOLUTION: a. Check the batteries in the console. If the batteries need to be replaced, see page 6. Most prob- lems are the result of drained batteries.

b. Remove the key from the console and UNPLUG THE POWER CORD. Remove the screws from the hood. Carefully remove the hood. Locate the Reed Switch

(86)and the Magnet (87) on the left side of the Pulley

(85).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 1/8Ó. If necessary, loosen the Screw (35) 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.

PROBLEM: One of the upper body arms squeaks during use

SOLUTION: a. Correcting this problem requires a small amount of white marine grease, available at most hardware stores.

Turn the Resistance Knob (61) counterclockwise until it can be removed. Remove the Resistance Cone (98) and the Upper Body Arm (59), along with the 3/8Ó Washers (99), Spring Washer (101), Thrust Washers (100), and Thrust Bearing (91). (Note: If the Resistance Sleeve [97] comes out of the Resistance Bracket [96], press it back in.) Apply a thin layer of white marine grease to the outer surface of the Resistance Cone (98). Reattach all parts in the order shown at the right.
