There is a swaying/bouncing motion at 0% incline
with descriptions that the unit is like a
springboard. All the weight is being put on the
incline bracket due to the unit having no air
shocks. It is causing the bracket to bend as the
person is running.
The levelers on the main frame need to be
loosened so that they sit securely against the
elevation frame at 0%.
Rattling noise from inside the console. Due to the Console cable length it may rattle if
loose. Tie the console cable down.
Side rail edges are very sharp. A tech cut his hand
open needed to get 5 or 6 stitches.
If there is a repair needed on unit with the side
rails involved send technician. Do not let the
customer repair or replace. This is being changed
to reduce the sharpness of the edge.
There is also a clanking noise which is due to the
bolt being smaller then the hole in the bottom
incline bracket.
Quality has improved the bolt size to make it a
better t.
Serial # for the T4 & T6 models is located on the
plastic motor cover.
It is important that we get as much information
from that unit as possible in case the motor cover
is replaced.
Incline bracket creaking when unit is in incline
position above 0.5%
Use teon washers on brackets to keep the motor
from rubbing against the bracket.
