Rollers and Pedals

BEGIN HERE
Do the rollers
seem to be "off" and
not fully tracking on the
Rail Assembly?
NO
The noise is being caused by the
movement of the pedal arm bracket
against the roller wheel. This movement
is a normal function of the machine. A
level of "play" has been built into the
pedal arm / roller wheel to reduce
internal mechanical stress, and to
increase the longevity of the machine.
Issue resolved.
Is a clicking
or rubbing noise being
caused by contact
between the roller
wheel and the roller
arm bracket?
