time and expense. This list includes common problems that may not be covered under the
treadmill's warranty.
PROBLEM

Treadbelt does not stay centered
Treadmill belt hesitates when walked/run on
Motor is not responsive after pressing start
Treadmill will only achieve approximately 7mph
/10 kph but shows higher speed on display
Treadmill trips on board 120 Vac /20A or
230 Vac /15A circuit
Computer shuts off when console is
touched (on a cold day) while walking/running
Circuit breaker trips, but not the
treadmill circuit breaker.
SOLUTION/CAUSE
1) Tether cord not in position.

120 Vac or 230 Vac wall outlet.
4) Breaker panel circuit breaker may be tripped.
5) Treadmill defect. Contact your dealer.
The user may be walking while favoring or putting more weight
on either the left or right foot. If this walking pattern is natural,
track the belt slightly off-center to the side opposite from the belt
movement.
See General Maintenance section on Treadbelt Tension.
Adjust as necessary.
1. Reset power. If still no good contact service.
This indicates motor should be receiving power to
operate. Do not use an extension cord. If an extension cord is
required it should be as short as possible and heavy duty
14-gauge minimum, low voltage. Contact an electrician or your
dealer. A minimum of 100Vac or 200 Vac current is required.
High belt/ deck friction. See General Maintenance section
on cleaning the deck. If cleaning doesn't prevent this
from reoccurring, check to see if there is significant wear of the
deck. If so, the deck may need to be flipped if it is on its original
side.
Treadmill may not be grounded. Static electricity is "crashing" the
computer. Refer to Grounding Instructions
Need to replace the house breaker with a "High
inrush current" type breaker (see page 4 for details)
