Most treadmill problems can be solved by following the steps below. Find the symptom that applies, and
follow the steps listed. If further assistance is needed, please call our Customer Service Department toll-
free at 1-888-936-4266, Monday through Friday, 8 a.m. until 6:30 p.m. Eastern Standard Time (excluding
holidays).
PROBLEM: The power does not turn on
SOLUTION: 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 THEPOWER CORD on page
8.) 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 con-
sole. See step 1 on page 9.
c. Check the circuit breaker located on the treadmill
frame near the power cord. If the switch pro-
trudes 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.
c. Remove the key from the console. Reinsert the key fully into the console. See step 1 on page 9.
d. If the treadmill still will not run, please call our Customer Service Department, toll-free.
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 9. Most problems are the result of drained batteries.
b. First remove the key and UNPLUG THE POWER
CORD. Remove the screws from the hood.
Carefully remove the hood. Locate the Reed Switch
(63) and the Magnet (65) on the left side of the
Pulley (68). 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 (24) 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.
