Locate the Reed Switch (52) and the Magnet (50) on the left side of the Pulley (49). 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 #8 x 3/4" Tek Screw (14), 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.

SYMPTOM: The incline of the treadmill does not change correctly

a.Hold down the Stop button and the Speed increase button, insert the key into the console, and then re- lease the Stop button and the Speed increase but- ton. Press the Stop button and then press the Incline increase or decrease button. The treadmill will automatically rise to the maximum incline level and then return to the minimum level. This will recal- ibrate the incline system. If the incline system does not begin calibrating, press the Stop button, and then press the Incline increase or decrease button again. When the incline system is calibrated, re- move the key from the console.

SYMPTOM: The walking belt slows when walked on

a.Use only a single-outlet surge suppressor that meets all of the specifications described on page 15.

If the walking belt is overtightened, treadmill perfor-

 

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 screws 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 run the

 

treadmill for a few minutes. Repeat until the walk-

 

ing belt is properly tightened.

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 in-

 

structed to do so by an authorized service rep-

 

resentative. Such substances may deteriorate

 

the walking belt and cause excessive wear. If

 

you suspect that the walking belt needs more lubri-

d.

cant, see the front cover of this manual.

If the walking belt still slows when walked on, see

 

the front cover of this manual.
