TROUBLESHOOTING
Most treadmill problems can be solved by following the simple steps below. Find the symptom that
applies, and follow the steps listed. If further assistance is needed, call our toll-free HELPLINE at
1-800-736-6879, Monday through Saturday, 7 a.m. until 7 p.m. Central Time (excluding holidays).
PROBLEM: The power does not turn on
SOLUTION: a. Make sure that the power cord is plugged into a surge suppressor, and that the surge suppressor
is plugged into a properly grounded outlet (see page 7). Use only a single-outlet surge suppressor
that meets all of the specifications described on page 7. Important: The treadmill is not compatible
with GFCI-equipped outlets.
b. After the power cord has been plugged in, make sure that the key is fully inserted into the console.
c. Check the circuit breaker located on the treadmill
frame near the power cord. If the switch protrudes
as shown, the circuit breaker has tripped. To reset
the circuit breaker, wait for five minutes and then
press the switch back in.
PROBLEM: The power turns off during use
SOLUTION: a. Check the circuit breaker located on the treadmill frame near the power cord (see the drawing
above). If the circuit breaker has tripped, wait for five minutes and then press the switch back in.
b. Make sure that the power cord is plugged in. If the power cord is plugged in, unplug it, wait for five
minutes, and then plug it back in.
c. Remove the key from the console. Reinsert the key fully into the console.
d. If the treadmill still will not run, please call our toll-free HELPLINE.
PROBLEM: The displays of the console do not function properly
SOLUTION: a. Check the batteries in the console. If the batteries need to be replaced, see BATTERY
INSTALLATION on page 8. Most problems are the result of drained batteries.
b. Remove the key from the console and UNPLUG THE
POWER CORD. Remove the Resistance Knob (98)
from the left Upright (11). Remove the screws from
the hood, and carefully remove the hood.
Locate the Reed Switch (86) and the Magnet (87) on
the left side of the Pulley (85). 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”. If necessary, loosen the Screw
(82) and move the Reed Switch slightly. Retighten the
Screw. Re-attach the hood, and run the treadmill for a
few minutes to check for a correct speed reading.
Reattach the Resistance Knob.
