water treatment and blue dye or change tank water as directed in
the water treatment section of this manual.
Knocking noise from inside the control
arm while training, especially when
changing directions.
Chain requires tightening or
adjustment.
Open inspection plate located on front of control arm and check
tension using a screwdriver or other tool. Use the chain tensioning
bolts located at the rear of the control arm to tighten or adjust as
needed. The chain should have approx 3mm of slack when
properly adjusted. See P.10 for details.

ing.
Remove large inspection plate next to the tank, insert a long tool
to push the rear end cap out from the inside, exposing the tank
belt tensioning bolt. Loosen tank bolts slightly. Remove upper
rubber belt cover to expose the PK belt. Tighten the tank tension-
ing bolt until the belt is too tight to be twisted from side to side
