29
Lower the treadmill (see HOW TO LOWER THE
TREADMILL FOR USE on page 27). Remove the four
indicated #8 x 3/4" Screws (7), and remove the Motor
H
ood (66).
Next, locate the Reed Switch (48) and the Magnet
(124) on the left side of the Pulley (54). 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 indicated #8 x 3/4"
Washer Head Tek Screw (26), move the Reed Switch
slightly, and then retighten the Tek Screw. Reattach
the Hood (not shown) with the six #8 x 3/4" Screws
(not shown). Run the treadmill for a few minutes to
check for a correct speed reading.
PROBLEM: The incline of the treadmill does not change correctly
SOLUTION: a. Hold down the Stop button and the Speed increase button, insert the key into the console, and
then release the Stop button and the Speed increase button. Press the Stop button again. Press
the Incline increase or decrease button. The treadmill will automatically rise to the maximum in-
cline level and then return to the minimum level. This will recalibrate the incline system. If the incline
does not calibrate, press the Stop button, and then press the Incline increase or decrease button
again. When the incline is calibrated, remove the key from the console.
PROBLEM: The walking belt slows when walked on
SOLUTION: a. Use only a single-outlet surge suppressor that meets all of the specifications described on page 14.
b. 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 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 3 to 4 in. (8 to 10
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 walking belt is properly tightened.
c. If the walking belt still slows when walked on, please see the front cover of this manual.
