9. Using the cleaning materials from Step #8, completely clean the inner
surface of the bushing inside the end of the black tube. The inner surface
should be free of all foam and adhesive when finished. The inner tube
should move freely inside the outer tube.
10. Re-assemble the machine in the reverse order of when the parts were
removed.
11. Make sure there is sufficient space to lower the walking deck.
Keep a minimum clearance behind the machine of 79" (2 m)
and 24" (0.6 m) on each side. This is the recommended safe
distance for access, movement and emergency dismounts
from the machine.
12. Make sure there is no object on or around the treadmill to spill or
cause blockage from the fully unfolded position.
13. Slightly push the walking deck forward toward the console, and then
push the Deck Release Handle until the locking tube releases and you
can pull the walking deck away from the console. Hold up the rear of the
walking deck, and move to the side of the machine.
Keep clear of the movement path of the walking deck.
14. The hydraulic lift is set up to drop gradually. Hold onto the walking
deck until approximately 2/3 of the movement down. Make sure that you use proper lifting technique; bend your knees and keep your back straight.
Lower the weight with your legs. Be aware that the walking deck can possibly drop quickly in the last part of the movement.
15. Connect the power cord back into the machine and then into the wall outlet.
16. Turn on the power to the machine with the power switch.
17. Stay to one side of your machine and start the belt at the slowest speed. Increase the belt to speed 6 and cycle through all the incline levels. The
noise should be gone at all levels.
Be sure not to touch the walking belt or step on the power cord. Keep bystanders and children away from the product you are
servicing at all times.
18. Switch off your machine.
19. Final Inspection
Inspect your machine to ensure that all hardware is tight and components are properly assembled.
Do not use until the machine has been fully assembled and inspected for correct performance in accordance with the Owner's
Manual.
