TROUBLE-SHOOTING AND MAINTENANCE
Most treadmill problems can be solved by following the simple steps below. Find the symptom that ap-
plies to your treadmill and follow the steps listed. If further assistance is needed, please call our
Customer Service Department at 1-888-936-4266, Monday through Friday, 9 a.m. until 5 p.m. Eastern
Standard Time (excluding holidays).
1. SYMPTOM: THE POWER DOES NOT TURN ON
a. Make sure that the power cord is plugged into a surge protector, and that the surge protector is plugged into
a properly grounded outlet. (See HOW TO PLUG IN THE POWER CORD on page 7.) Use only a CUL-listed
surge protector, rated at 15 amps, with a 14-gauge cord of five feet or less in length.
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 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.
2. SYMPTOM: THE POWER TURNS OFF DURING USE
a. Check the circuit breaker located on the treadmill frame near the power cord (see 1. c. 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.
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 Customer Service Department, toll-free.
3. SYMPTOM: THE DISPLAYS OF THE CONSOLE DO NOT FUNCTION PROPERLY
a. Check the batteries in the console. See BATTERY INSTALLATION on page 8. Most problems are the result
of drained batteries.
b. Remove the six screws from the hood. 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 (35) 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.
