How To... Replace the Front Roller
Special Service Tools Required: NONE
1. Turn the unit power OFF at the switch, and then
unplug the line cord at the wall outlet.
2. Remove the Inside Upright Covers, the Front
Cover, and the Motor Cover. See "How To..." in
this section.
3. Loosen the Rear Roller Adjusting Screws to
slacken the Striding Belt enough to allow side-to-
side movement of the Front Roller.
Note: Index the initial position of the Adjusting Screw
or count the number of rotations when loosening the
Roller Adjusting Screws for proper Striding Belt re-
tensioning.
4.
Insert the end of a flat blade screwdriver in the
slot of the Idler Arm. Raise the Idler Arm and
insert an Allen wrench in the Idler Arm Access
Hole to keep it in a raised position.
CAUTION: DUE TO EXTREME SPRING TENSION,
DO NOT RAISE THE IDLER ARM HIGHER THAN
REQUIRED TO INSTALL THE ALLEN WRENCH.
5. Remove two screws securing the Anti-Static Brush
Bracket just behind the Front Roller Pulley to avoid
being damaged during roller removal.
6. Remove the mounting bolt, lock washer, and flat washer
securing the Left Front Roller Shaft at the Left Side of
the Frame.
