Locate the Reed Switch (89) and the Magnet (62) on the left side of the Pulley (71). 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 1/8 in. (3 mm). If necessary, loosen the M4.2 x 13mm Tek Screw (3), move the Reed Switch slightly, and then retighten the Screw. Reattach the Motor Hood (not shown), and run the treadmill for a few minutes to check for a correct speed reading.

PROBLEM: The crosswalk arms squeak during use

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

SOLUTION: a. (Note: Correcting this problem requires a small

a

 

 

 

 

 

 

amount of white marine grease, available at hardware

 

 

117

 

 

stores.) Turn the Resistance Knob (A) counterclock-

 

 

 

 

 

wise and remove it. Next, remove the Resistance

 

B

 

 

 

 

 

Cone (B) and the Left Crosswalk Arm (117), along with

 

 

 

F

 

 

the Resistance Plate (C), Washers (D), Spring

 

 

 

 

 

 

Washer (E), Thrust Washers (F), and Thrust Bearing

(G). (Note: If the Resistance Plate [C] comes out of

 

 

C

 

 

the Resistance Cone [B], press it back in.) Apply a

 

 

G

 

 

 

thin layer of white marine grease to the outer surface

 

 

 

D

 

 

of the Resistance Cone (B). Then, reattach all parts in

 

 

 

 

 

 

the order shown at the right.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

PROBLEM: The incline of the treadmill does not change correctly

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

SOLUTION: a. With the key in the console, press one of the Incline buttons. While the incline is changing, re- move the key. After a few seconds, re-insert the key. The treadmill will automatically rise to the maximum incline level and then return to the minimum level. This will recalibrate the incline system.

PROBLEM: The walking belt slows when walked on

SOLUTION: a. If an extension cord is needed, use only a 3-conductor, 14-gauge (1 mm2) cord that is no longer

than 5 ft. (1.5 m).

 

 

b. If the walking belt is overtightened, treadmill perfor-

b

 

mance may decrease and the walking belt may be-

 

come damaged. Remove the key and UNPLUG THE

 

 

POWER CORD. Using the hex key, turn both idler

 

 

roller bolts 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

 

2–3 in.

cm) off the walking platform. Be careful to keep the

Idler Roller

walking belt centered. Then, plug in the power cord,

 

insert the key, and run the treadmill for a few minutes.

Bolts

 

Repeat until the walking belt is properly tightened.

 

 

c. If the walking belt still slows when walked on, please see the front cover of this manual.
