Incline Motor Assembly noting how it extends from the Motor
Compartment through to the Incline Weldment.
11. Installation of the Incline Motor Assembly is the reverse
procedure.
Note: Be sure to attach the cables to the proper locations on the
Motor Control Board. Do not crimp any cables.
12. Make sure that there is safe clearance beside the tread-
mill to one side. Make sure there is sufficient space to tilt the
machine back upright.
This step requires two people. Be sure there is
adequate clearance for the raised deck. Some
components of the equipment can be heavy or
awkward. Enlist the service of a second person when
you do maintenance steps involving these compo-
nents. Do not try to do heavy or awkward steps on
your own.
13. 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.
14. Make sure there is no object on or around the treadmill to
spill or cause blockage from the fully unfolded position.
15. Slightly push the walking deck forward toward the console.
With your foot lightly push the top part of the hydraulic lift
forward until the locking tube releases and you can pull the walk-
ing 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.
16. 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. Be aware that the walking
deck can possibly drop quickly in the last part of the movement.
17. Re-install all remaining parts that were removed in reverse
order.
