PROBLEM: The walking belt is off-center or slips when walked on
SOLUTION: a. If the walking belt is off-center, first remove the key
a
nd UNPLUG THE POWER CORD. If the walking
belt has shifted to the left, use the hex key to turn
t
he left rear roller bolt clockwise 1/2 of a turn; if the
walking belt has shifted to the right, turn the left
bolt counterclockwise 1/2 of a turn. Be careful not to
overtighten the walking belt. Then, plug in the power
cord, insert the key, and run the treadmill for a few
minutes. Repeat until the walking belt is centered.
b. If the walking belt slips when walked on, first re-
move the key and UNPLUG THE POWER CORD.
Using the hex key, turn both rear roller bolts clock-
wise, 1/4 of a turn. When the walking belt is correctly
tightened, you should be able to lift each edge of the
walking belt 3 to 4 in. (8 to 10 cm) off the walking plat-
form. Be careful to keep the walking belt centered.
Then, plug in the power cord, insert the key, and care-
fully walk on the treadmill for a few minutes. Repeat
until the walking belt is properly tightened.
PROBLEM: The upper body arms squeak during use
SOLUTION: a. (Note: Correcting this problem requires a small amount
of white marine grease, available at hardware stores.)
If the Left Upper Body Arm (97) squeaks, turn the
Resistance Knob (A) counterclockwise and remove it.
Next, remove the Resistance Cone (B) and the Left
Upper Body Arm, along with 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 the Resistance Cone [B], press it
back in.) Apply a thin layer of white marine grease to
the outer surface of the Resistance Cone (B). Then,
reattach all parts in the order shown at the right.
Repeat this procedure for the Right Upper Body Arm
(not shown) if necessary.
