MAINTENANCE AND TROUBLE-SHOOTING

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 call our Customer Service Department.
PROBLEM: THE POWER DOES NOT TURN ON
SOLUTION: a. Make sure that the power cord is plugged into a properly earthed outlet. (See HOW TO PLUG IN
THE POWER CORD on page 7.) If an extension cord is needed, use only a 14-gauge cord of
five feet (1,5 m) or less in length.
b. After the power cord has been plugged in, make sure that the key is fully inserted into the console.
c. Check the circuit breaker located on the treadmill
frame near the power cord. If the switch pro-
trudes as shown, the circuit breaker has tripped.
To reset the circuit breaker, wait for five minutes
and then press the switch back in.
PROBLEM: THE POWER TURNS OFF DURING USE
SOLUTION: a. Check the circuit breaker located on the treadmill frame near the power cord (see the drawing
above). If the circuit breaker has tripped, wait for five minutes and then press the switch back in.
b. Make sure that the power cord is plugged in.
c. Remove the key from the console. Reinsert the key fully into the console.
d. If the treadmill still will not run, please call our Customer Service Department.
PROBLEM: THE DISPLAYS OF THE CONSOLE DO NOT FUNCTION PROPERLY
SOLUTION: a. Check the batteries in the console. If the batteries need to be replaced, see assembly step 6 on
page 6. Most problems are the result of drained batteries.
b. Remove the six screws from the hood. Carefully
remove the hood. Locate the Reed Switch (8) and
the Magnet (14) on the left side of the Pulley (5).
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 1/8Ó
(3 mm). If necessary, loosen the Clip Screw (9) and
move the Reed Switch slightly. Retighten the
Screw. Re-attach the hood, and run the treadmill for
a few minutes to check for a correct speed reading.
