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 and
UNPLUG THE POWER CORD. If the walking belt has
shifted to the left, use the allen wrench to turn the left
rear roller bolt clockwise 1/2 of a turn; if the walking belt
has shifted to the right, turn the 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 remove the
key and UNPLUG THE POWER CORD. Using the allen
wrench, turn both rear roller bolts clockwise 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 inches off
the walking platform. Be careful to keep the walking belt
centered. Then, plug in the power cord, insert the key, and
walk on the treadmill for a few minutes. Repeat until the
walking belt is properly tightened.
PROBLEM: The displays of the console do not function properly
SOLUTION: a. Remove the key from the console and UNPLUG THE
POWER CORD. Next, remove the screws from the hood
and carefully remove the hood. Locate the Reed Switch
(17) and the Magnet (12) on the left side of the Pulley (11).
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". If necessary, move
the Reed Switch slightly using a slotted screwdriver. Re-at-
tach the hood and run the treadmill for a few minutes to
check for a correct speed reading.
PROBLEM: Television reception is poor
SOLUTION: a. Check for the problems listed below and follow the applicable instructions.
• Ignition (black spots or horizontal streaks that appear or a picture that flutters or drifts)—Usually
this is caused by interference from automobile ignition systems, neon lamps, electric drifts, or
other electric appliances. Try changing the position of other electric appliances to correct the
problem. Make sure that the treadmill is plugged into its own electrical circuit.
• Ghosts—Ghosts are caused by the television signal following two paths—one is the direct path
and the other is reflected from tall buildings, hills, or other objects.
• Blue Screen—If the cable channel signal is weak, the picture may be of poor quality or a blue
screen may appear.
Note: If one of these symptoms appears, the symptom may be caused by the local cable com-
pany signal reception. Contact the local cable company.
