Maintenance:

1.  Wipe down all areas in the sweat path with a damp cloth after each workout.

2.  If a squeak, thump, clicking or rough feeling develops the main cause is most likely one of two

reasons:

i. 

The hardware was not sufficiently tightened during assembly. All bolts that were

installed during assembly need to be tightened as much as possible. It may be

necessary to use a larger wrench than the one provided if you cannot tighten the

bolts sufficiently. I cannot stress this point enough; 90% of calls to the service

department for noise issues can be traced to loose hardware or the rear rails being

dirty.

ii. 

Dirt build-up on the rear rails and polyurethane wheels are also a source of noise.

Noise from build-up on the rails can cause a thumping sound that you would swear is

coming from inside the main body of the machine because noise travels, and is

amplified, in the tubing of the frame. Clean the rails and wheels with a lint free cloth

and rubbing alcohol. Stubborn build-up can be removed with your thumbnail or a

non-metallic scraper, like the back edge of a plastic knife. After cleaning, apply a

small amount of lubricant on the rails with your fingers or a lint free cloth. You only

need a thin coat of lubrication, wipe off any excess.

3.  If squeaks or other noises persist, check that the unit is properly leveled. There are 4 leveling

pads on the bottom of the rear rails, use a 14mm wrench (or adjustable wrench) to adjust the

levelers.

Maintenance Menu in console software:

The console has built in maintenance/diagnostic software. The software will allow you to change

the console settings from English to Metric and turn off the beeping of the speaker when a key is

pressed for example. To enter the Maintenance menu (may be called Engineering mode,

depending on version) press and hold down the Start, Stop and Enter keys. Keep holding the keys

down for about 5 seconds and the message window will display  ALTXXXX Engineering mode .

Press the enter button to access the menu below:

Calibration:

If the console shows an error for the incline/ramp, re-calibrating the

system may resolve the problem. Press and hold the Start & work level UP keys for 5

seconds. The message window will show  Calibration ; press enter. The calibration

process is automatic and the system will restart when finished.
