    ASSEMBLE THE SUPPORT FRAMES ASSEMBLING THE SUPPORT FRAME IS THE FIRST TASK. THE SIDE FRAMES ARE ASSEMBLED FIRST AND THEN ARE CONNECTED TOGETHER WITH HORIZONTALS AT THE BACK AND ADJUSTABLE X-BRACES TO MAKE IT RIGID. ASSEMBLING THE SIDE FRAMES TOGETHER IS EASIEST IF THE LEFT FRAME IS LEANING UP AGAINST A WALL.
  • Page 22 FINISH AND POSITION FRAME ASSEMBLY ASSEMBLE THE SECOND SIDE FRAME AND COMPLETE THE ASSEMBLY AS SHOWN. TIGHTEN THE TURNBUCKLES EVENLY AND TIGHTLY, ADJUSTING SO THAT THE TURNBUCKLES END UP BEING THE SAME LENGTH. ONCE THE TURNBUCKLES ARE TIGHT, THE FRAME WILL BE RIGID. POSITION THE FRAME IN ITS FINAL LOCATION, AGAINST A WALL.
  • Page 23 NOTE: INSTALLATION OF THE MODEL M6-V TREADWALL CHANNEL AND PANEL COMPONENTS IS VERY SIMILAR TO THE MODEL M6-PRO TREADWALL. ON THE FOLLOWING PAGES, MANY OF THE ILLUSTRATIONS ARE TAKEN FROM THE M6-PRO MANUAL AND SHOW THE COMPONENTS MOUNTED ON AN M6-PRO SUPPORT FRAME. ALTHOUGH THE FRAMES ARE DIFFERENT, THE INSTRUCTIONS ARE THE SAME FOR THE M6-V TREADWALL.

  • Page 25 Install the main shaft Two sprockets this side The next few steps involve lifting and installing parts at the top of the Treadwall. This is about 9 feet off the ground and some of the parts are quite heavy and awkward. You should have two 8 foot stepladders and two people for this part of the installation.
  • Page 26 Install the channels leave out this bolt for now flange bolt DETAIL A HARDWARE BAG: TW6-6 Install the left and right channels by hooking them onto the main shaft directly behind the square bearings. This diagram shows the assembly after the left channel has been installed and the right channel is being put into place.
  • Page 27 Install lower shaft, spacer bar and back guard. Install the lower shaft into the bearings at the bottom of the channels. Check that the setscrews in the bearings are turned out so that they will not interfere with insertion of the shaft. You should not have to force the bearings onto the shaft as long as they are properly lined up.
  • Page 28 SET THE WALL ANGLE THE WALL CAN BE ADJUSTED TO THREE ANGLES - VERTICAL, POSITIVE ANGLE, AND NEGATIVE (OVERHANGING) ANGLE. IT IS HELD AT THE DESIRED ANGLE BY BOLTS AT THE SUPPORT FRAME CROSS-BAR WITH SPACERS IN THE SPACE BETWEEN THE CHANNELS AND SUPPORT FRAMES.
  • Page 29 Install the shroud Slots in shroud slip under bolt heads Before raising the shroud into position, make sure that the front two flange-bolts on each square bearing are quite loose. There should be a 1/4" gap under the head of each flange-bolt. Each square bearing should have only 3 bolts at this point.
  • Page 30 Wiring POWER WIRE Mount the counter-timer on the right channel - four small holes below the speed control - with screws and nuts. Bring the wire from the top of the right A-frame through the grommet near the top of the right channel and down through the wire clips.
  • Page 31 Install and adjust the drive chain Push-down bolt Lock nut Remove the cover from the hydraulic control unit on the right channel. The hydraulic pump is mounted in slots so it can slide up and down. Make sure it is as high as it can be. Install the drive chain between the pump sprocket and the main shaft as shown.
  • Page 32 ASSEMBLING MAIN CHAINS Each Treadwall main chain come in two boxes that must be assembled to a full length chain using a masterlink. If the boxes are marked "short" and "long", use one short and one long for each chain. If the boxes are unmarked, use any two boxes to make each chain.
  • Page 33 Install the chains To install the main chains, drape them one at a time over the large sprockets under the shroud with the tabs facing out. Bring the ends to the bottom and around the sprockets on the lower shaft and attach the ends with the master links.
  • Page 34 Install stiffies Each panel has a metal stiffener that must be mounted on the back (smooth side) before installing the panel onto the Treadwall. Place the panel face down on a piece of cardboard, line up the stiffy, and press it into place - stepping on it with your foot if climbing panel necessary.
  • Page 35 Install panels Continue installing panels, alternating between white and black buttons. Use the speed control lever to control the descent of the panels. As you install panels they will move down by their weight. There will come a point where they start to move up of their own accord, and then you will have to push them down - harder and harder as you put more on.
  • Page 36 Finish up Slide the mat under the wall to the back of the support frame. This finishes the installation except for putting on the ladderline and climbing holds, going through the final check list (next page) and installing the last climbing panel. Climbing hold instructions are included in each box.
  • Page 37 FINAL CHECK LIST Before installing the final panel, inspect the inside of the Treadwall: 1) Make sure the timer-counter is working properly. If it does not count feet as the wall is moving, check that the magnets and sensor are properly installed and adjusted 2) Check the autostop function.
  • Page 38 Addendum to Installation Instructions – Treadwall units ® Lower Shaft set screws: One sprocket on the lower shafts has no set screw: it is located on the left side. This sprocket does not require a set screw - it is self-aligning and will be aligned when the first panel is installed.
