TENSIONING THE BELT PROCEDURE
Caution:
Over-tightening of the roller will severely shorten the life of the belt and may cause
further damage to other components.
Running Belt:
If when you plant your foot on the belt, you can feel a slipping sensation then the belt has stretched and is slipping across the rollers. This is a normal and common adjustment on a new treadmill. To eliminate this slipping, tension both the rear rollers Allen bolts 1/4 TURN as shown above. Try the treadmill again to check for slipping. Repeat if necessary, but NEVER TURN the roller bolts more than ¼ turn at a time.

DECK RE-WAXING PROCEDURE
Frequency: Every 1 month
Caution:
If deck is not to periodical add the waxing, between the deck and running belt will produce great friction make the deck and running belt to burn up and cut down the motor life .

Parts name: Silicon oil set
1. Loosen the tension bolts at both ends.
2. Pull the belt with your left hand and apply the silicon in the deck with your right hand. (The volume of silicon applied is about 40ml)
3. Tighten the tension bolts.
4. Start the treadmill. Step on the treadmill belt to walk the silicon in.
Adjust the belt tension if necessary.
5. With the clamp-on meter, measure the current draw of the motor. (Clamp on either the red or the black wire.) The current should be less than 15Amps for 110V model. (less than 7.5Amps for 220V model.)

LED INSTRUCTIONS
NORMAL OPERATION
1. LEDs 1, 2 and 3 Sequence back and forth to indicate the processor is on-line and operational.
2. LED 4 is used as a discrete/analog signal to the upper console.
3. LED 5 indicates system status/mode. Currently 3 modes are defined safe mode, stand-by mode and run mode. They are defined as follows:
a) Safe Mode - When the controllers safety relay is not energized and no error exists, LED 5 remains off.
b) Stand-by Mode - When the safety relay is engaged but the system is not outputting an active PWM to the motor and no error exists, LED 5 blinks off and on at a fast rate.
c) Run Mode - When the system outputs an active PWM Control signal to the motor and no error exists, LED 5 remains ON.

E6 –
Runaway Belt Error
OVERVIEW
If the actual belt speed is greater than the target speed by a limit and increasing then an E6 error is called. E6 errors flag errors that will result in the belt “running away” or not responding to input.

E9 – Speed Range Error
OVERVIEW
During normal run time operation the value stored during auto calibration is used to initially set the speed (e.g. target speed = 12 MPH, PWM ticks = Maximum PWM = 363). Once the speed stabilized the actual speed is monitored and if different than the target speed the PWM value is adjusted until the actual speed matches the target speed. If the PWM value is changed by more than the amount of ticks required to change 0.8 MPH and the actual speed does not match the target speed then an E9 error is flagged. This error indicates the motor controller system is unable to maintain the target speed.

E16 – Stuck key error
OVERVIEW
If a key press is detected for more than 45 seconds a stuck key error is flagged. This error is primarily caused by a faulty keypad but could be caused by other issues (object on the keypad).
CORRECTIVE ACTION
Reset system power. If error re-occurs replace the keypad with a known good keypad. If error still occurs replace console PCB with known good console PCB.
E18 – Safety switch test failure
OVERVIEW
If the actual speed exceeds limit set for safety switch test a safety switch test failure error occurs..
CORRECTIVE ACTION
Re-calibrate system as listed in system calibration section of this document and re-run safety switch test. If system still fails safety switch test run speed feedback issue and speed control issue tests in the corrective action procedures section of this document.

E19
– NOVRAM Failure
OVERVIEW
If the values stored in non-volatile memory are out of limits or do not match the safety check value stored in non-volatile memory a NOVRAM failure occurs. The system attempts to reinitialize the non-volatile memory three times and if the NOVRAM check fails all three attempts a NOVRAM failure error (E19) is called.
CORRECTIVE ACTION
An E-19 error indicates the NOVRAM has critically failed and needs to be replaced. If an E19 error occurs the console should be reprogrammed with the current software version and the power should be toggled. If this does not clear the E-19 error the console PCB will need to be returned to DCI for repair
