MAINTENANCE AND TROUBLESHOOTING
Most treadmill problems can be solved by following the steps below. Find the symptom that applies, and
follow the steps listed. If further assistance is needed, please see the front cover of this manual.
1. SYMPTOM: THE CONSOLE DOES NOT
FUNCTION PROPERLY
a. Replace the battery in the console (see assembly
step 5 on page 6).
b. The console, like most electronics, is susceptible
to static electricity build-up caused by certain
types of clothing or by the operation of the tread-
mill. If the display is blank or gives incorrect read-
ings, apply an anti-static spray to the handrails.
Anti-static spray is available where laundry sup-
plies are sold.
2. SYMPTOM: THE WALKING BELT DOES NOT
MOVE SMOOTHLY
a. If the walk-
ing belt is
overtight-
ened, per-
formance
may be
reduced and
the walking
belt may be
permanently
damaged.
Using the
hex key,
turn both rear roller bolts counterclockwise 1/4 of
a turn. When the tension of the walking belt is
correct, you should be able to lift each edge of
the walking belt 2 to 3 inches. W
alk on the tread-
mill for a few minutes. Repeat until the walking
belt is properly tightened. Be careful to keep the
walking belt centered.
3. SYMPTOM: THE WALKING BELT SLIPS OR IS
OFF-CENTER

belt slips

on

bolts clockwise,

2 to 3 inches. Walk on the treadmill for a few min-
utes. Repeat until the walking belt is properly tight-
ened. Be careful to keep the walking belt centered.
b.
If the walking
belt has shift-
ed to the left
side, use the
hex key to turn
the left rear
roller bolt
clockwise, and
the right rear roller bolt counterclockwise, 1/4 of a
turn each. Be careful not to overtighten the walk-
ing belt. Walk on the treadmill for a few minutes.
Repeat until the walking belt is centered.
