Lower the treadmill (see HOW TO LOWER THE

TREADMILL FOR USE on page 28). Remove the
three #8 x 3/4" Screws (1). Carefully pivot the Motor

Hood (71) off.

Locate the Reed Switch (52) and the Magnet (50)

on the left side of the Pulley (49). Turn the Pulley

until the Magnet is aligned with the Reed Switch.
Make sure that the gap between the Magnet and

the Reed Switch is about 1/8 in. (3 mm). If neces­
sary, loosen the #8 x 3/4" Тек Screw (13), move
the Reed Switch slightly, and then retighten the
Screw. Reattach the Motor Hood (not shown) with
the five #8 x 3/4" Screws (not shown) and run the
treadmill for a few minutes to check for a correct
speed reading.

PROBLEM: The incline of the treadmill does not change correctly

SOLUTION: a. Recalibrate the incline system (see step 3 on page 25).

PROBLEM: The walking belt slows when walked on

SOLUTION: a. Use only a single-outlet surge suppressor that meets all of the specifications described on page 14.

b. If the walking belt is overtightened, treadmill perfor­

mance may decrease and the walking belt may be­

come damaged. Remove the key and UNPLUG
THE POWER CORD. Using the hex key, turn both

idler roller bolts counterclockwise, 1/4 of a turn.

When the walking belt is properly tightened, you
should be able to lift each edge of the walking belt
2 to 3 in. (5 to 7 cm) off the walking platform. Be
careful to keep the walking belt centered. Then,

plug in the power cord, insert the key, and run the

treadmill for a few minutes. Repeat until the walking

belt is properly tightened.

c. If the walking belt still slows when walked on, see the front cover of this manual.
