Procedure 6.7 - Replacing Drive Motor

Set the treadmill circuit breaker in the "off" position and unplug the treadmill's line cord from

the AC outlet.

Remove the hood.

The drive motor and flywheel are balanced as a matched pair. Since the flywheel is

balanced to a specific motor, flywheels should not be removed from one and installed on a

different motor. If the drive motor is replaced, the drive motor and flywheel should be

replaced as a unit.

Disconnect the wires from the drive motor cooling fan. Disconnect the speed sensor

connector from the J2 connector on the lower logic PCA. Disconnect the drive motor's in-

line connector located in the drive motor wires.

Remove the drive belt tension bolt, see Diagram 4.2. Rotate the drive motor as far as

possible toward the rear of the treadmill.

Remove the drive belt from the drive motor pulley.

Remove the four bolts that fasten the drive motor onto it's mounting plate. Remove the drive

motor from the treadmill.

Remove the screws that mount the speed sensor and bracket onto the drive motor, see

Diagram 6.7.

Mount the speed sensor and bracket on the replacement drive motor using the screws

removed in step 7.

Remove the four screws that fasten the drive motor cooling fan onto the drive motor. See

Diagram 6.11.

10. Mount the drive motor cooling fan onto the replacement drive motor with the screws

removed in step 9.

11. Set the drive motor in it's mounting position. Fasten the drive motor to it's mounting plate

using the bolts removed in step 6.

12. Set the drive belt in place on the drive motor pulley.

13. Rotate the drive motor forward and replace the drive belt tension bolt removed in step 4.

Tension the drive belt per procedure 4.2.
