TROUBLE-SHOOTING
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 1-800-999-3756, Monday through Friday, 6 a.m. until 6 p.m. Mountain 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 8). Use only a single-outlet surge suppressor
that meets all of the specifications described on page 8. 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
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.
d. Check the on/off switch located on the treadmill
near the power cord. The switch must be in the on
position.
PROBLEM: The power turns off during use
SOLUTION: a. Check the circuit breaker located on the treadmill frame near the power cord (see 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. Unplug the power cord, wait for five minutes, and then plug the power cord back in.
d. Remove the key from the console. Reinsert the key fully into the console.
e. Make sure that the on/off switch is in the on position.
f. 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. Remove the key from the console and unplug the
power cord. Carefully tip the treadmill down as
shown in drawing a. Remove the Screws (39, 83) from
the hood. Raise the Uprights (69) and carefully re-
move the hood.
Locate the Reed Switch (10) and the Magnet (7) on
the left side of the Pulley (8). 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 1/2”
Screw (67) 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.
