our Customer Service Department toll-free at 1-800-999-3756, Monday through Friday, 6 a.m. until 6 p.m.
Mountain Time (excluding holidays).
1. SYMPTOM: THE CONSOLE DOES NOT
FUNCTION PROPERLY
a. Replace the two ÒAAÓ batteries in the console
(see assembly step 5 on page 5). In addition,
make sure the reed switch wire is plugged into the
back of the console (see step 3 on page 5).
b. The console, like most electronics, is susceptible
to static electricity build-up, caused by certain
types of clothing or by the operation of the tread-
mill. If the console blanks out or gives incorrect
readings, apply an anti-static spray to the
handrail. Anti-static spray is available where laun-
dry supplies are sold.

Using the allen wrench, turn both rear roller
adjustment bolts counterclockwise 1/4 of a turn.
When the tension of the walking belt is correct,
you should be able to lift each side of the walking
belt 2 to 3 inches. Walk on the treadmill for a few
