® FREECLIMBER/4000 PT ELECTRICAL CIRCUIT TESTS Positive Output to Field Test This test should be used on machines with a “no-resistance” problem. Turn power off. Remove black wire from B+ terminal on alternator. Remove brown wire from field terminal on alternator. Place alligator clips on the B+ terminal and the field terminal of the alternator.
4600/4400/4200/4000 PT ® - ELECTRICAL TROUBLESHOOTING Please refer to your owner’s manual for detailed instructions. If you do not have an owner’s manual please call our Customer Service phone number to order one. Verify AC voltage at wall outlet (110 - 120 VAC). Verify AC voltage at end of AC cord (110 - 120 VAC).
4600/4400 CL - ELECTRICAL TROUBLESHOOTING I. Section One -Testing With A Multimeter/Voltmeter Check all wiring and connections; ensure that the inductive switch Molex and resistor Molex are not reversed on the power supply board. Check the battery voltage with your test resistor installed between the battery leads. The battery voltage should be 6.1 VDC or greater.
II. Section Two -Testing Without A Multimeter/Voltmeter Inspect power supply board connectors at the following locations: load resistor (J6), inductive switch (J3), console (J4), and external power supply (J1). Check for no frayed wires on battery connector (J5) or alternator connector (J2). Inspect U3, Q5, Q6 and Q7 to make sure that the hardware is tightened, there is sufficient heatsink grease/sil pad, and that the solder is good.
® FREECLIMBER/4000 PT – MECHANICAL TROUBLESHOOTING For machines with a Bison transmission Remove alternator belt and inspect for cracks, fraying or any other unusual or excessive wear. Spin alternator pulley to check bearings. Inspect alternator pulley for wear. Check that the transmission pulley set screw is tightened on the flat side of the shaft (check alternator/ transmission pulley alignment).

® FREECLIMBER - MECHANICAL TROUBLESHOOTING For machines with a “T-2” transmission Remove alternator belt and inspect for cracks, fraying or any other unusual or excessive wear. Spin alternator pulley to check bearings and check pulley for wear. Remove HTD belt and inspect for cracks, fraying or any other unusual or excessive wear. Spin Eccentric Shaft Assy to check bearings and inspect for excessive wear.

STRATUS NOTES • Regulator on the power control board regulates B+ to 10.5 VDC, anything over that and the alternator is shut down. • Power control board regulates the field signal (previously this was a console function) • Console regulates power to achieve the proper resistance by turning the load resistor on/off as needed. New ceramic load resistor is physically much larger in diameter and longer in length.
MOMENTUM SYSTEMS 3800 RC The Momentum systems cycle ergometers have 20 levels of intensity for each exercise program. The Momen- tum uses a variable resistance system to maintain constant power within any given intensity level. The resis- tance decreases as you pedal faster and increases as you pedal slower. The variable resistance system ensures you will do the same amount of work regardless of how fast or slow you pedal.
