TREADMILL ERROR CODE AND MAINTENANCE
Monthly
Care and Service
1. Clean the treadmill of dust and dirt that might
accumulate under and behind the treadmill. Vacuum small rubber particles from
the soles of running shoes that accumulate alongside the belt and behind the machine.
2. Inspect the autowaxer for sufficient wax in the wax channel.
a. Lay treadmill on its side.
b. Pull back the treadbelt (on the bottom of the treadmill) to expose the wax channel.
c. The wax channel should be at least ¼” thick at its thinnest point.
d. Feel along the full length of the wax channel for consistent thickness.
e. Call authorized service technician to replace wax channel if it is less than ¼” thick at any point.

d. Feel along the full length of the wax channel for consistent thickness.
e. Call authorized service technician to replace wax channel if it is less than ¼” thick at any point.
NOTE: To prevent damage to the
treadbelt, do not allow the treadmill to run without sufficient wax in the wax channel.
Once every three (3) months we recommend that the motor
cover be removed and the motor area vacuumed thoroughly to remove dust and
particles. Only authorized service personnel should perform this procedure as
only authorized service technicians are allowed access to the area under the
motor hood. A thorough visual inspection should be performed at this time as
well. Have the technician check for tight wire harness connections, damaged
motor or power wires, tight motor and tensioner bolts, tight
ground screw connections and wire tie downs, properly attached incline motor cotter pin and clevis pin, and tight motor controller and interface screws.
Expert service and maintenance at a modest cost are available through your factory trained authorized TRUE dealer. He maintains a stock of repair parts and has the technical knowledge to meet your service needs.

Incline
and Speed Calibration
The Incline and Speed Calibration mode is used to
troubleshoot and calibrate the treadmill. Calibration will cause the treadmill
to speed up to 15 mph and incline up to 15%.
CAUTION: Keep area under the treadmill free from obstructions because the deck returns to 0% grade when the safety key is replaced. Failure to do so could cause personal injury or damage to the machine.
1. Hold (up/down) while placing the SAFETY KEY onto the Keyboard to enter the Calibration Mode.
The following messages will repeat themselves one at a time:
CALIBRATION
PRESS START
NOTE: While in this mode, (up/down) and (plus/minus) can be used to change the treadmill incline and speed. The SPEED Window will display actual speed.
2. Press (Start) to start calibration. The treadmill will lower to zero incline and then start increasing incline to
15% and speed to 15 mph.
3. When the calibration is complete:
The following message will display in the Message Center:
CALIBRATION SUCCESSFUL

Error
Codes
E1:RANGE
This error occurs when the incline values on the display do
not match the values stored during calibration.
E1:STALL
This error occurs when the incline motor does not move in
response to an incline command.
E1:INCLINE
This error occurs when the incline motor moved without an
incline command.
E2:OVERSPEED
This error occurs when acceleration exceeded design limits.
E2:CAL
This error occurs when the speed displayed does not match
the stored value from calibration.
E2:RECAL
This error occurs when a data error is detected at start up. The Control Panel has reset to default values.
This error occurs when a data error is detected at start up. The Control Panel has reset to default values.
E5:SENSOR
This error occurs when no speed sensor data has been
detected at the Control Panel.

speed, ability to change the units of measure, ability to set the “user not
present” function, a list of service and error codes, the ability to set
program time, and a log of the last five errors.
