TURNING THE WALKING PLATFORM

Both sides of the walking platform are designed to be used as walking surfaces. Inspect the walking platform peri-
odically for wear. If there is any wood showing through the phenolic coating, or if the surface is damaged, the
walking platform should be turned over. The walking platform will need to be turned over after every 6,000 to
7,500 miles. Follow the instructions below to turn over the walking platform.

1. Remove the key and unplug the

power cord. Remove the Front
Endcap Screws (15), the Screws
(24), and the Left and Right Front
Endcaps (64, 18). Remove the
Roller Adjustment Bolt (16) and
Washer (17) from each side of the
Front Roller (31).

2. Remove the six Platform Screws

(8). (Note: Be very careful to
avoid chipping or damaging the
phenolic coating on the Walking
Platform (21). Lift the Front Roller
(31) and slide it out of the Walking
Belt (20). Lift the Walking Platform
and the Walking Belt to the posi-
tion shown by the dotted lines.
Slide the Walking Platform out of
the Walking Belt, turn it, and then
slide it back into the Walking Belt.

3. Lay down the Walking Platform

(21) and the Walking Belt (20). Slide the Front Roller (31) back into the Walking Belt. Look under the Walking
Platform and make sure that the Front Roller Guards (121) are between the Walking Belt and the Walking
Platform (see the inset drawing).

4. Reattach the six Platform Screws (8). Thread the Roller Adjustment Bolts (16) with the Washers (17) into the

Roller (31). Reattach the Front Endcaps (64, 18) with the Endcap Screws (15).

5. Next, the Walking Belt (20) will need to be adjusted to the

proper tension. Using chalk, make two marks on the Walking
Belt exactly 50” apart, as shown in the drawing. Tighten both
Roller Adjustment Bolts (16, shown in the drawing above)
until the two chalk marks move apart an additional 3/16” to
1/4”. Make sure to keep the Walking Belt centered.

platform will need to be replaced after every 12,000 to 15,000 miles. Refer to page 46 to order a new walking plat-
form. Follow the instructions above to replace the walking platform.

REPLACING THE WALKING BELT

When the walking belt becomes worn, it should be replaced. The walking belt will need to be replaced after every
