Test
adapter for voltage
1.
Plug adapter into a working outlet.
2.
Turn on meter to test for DC voltage.
3.
Put one lead into the end of the plug and the other lead to the metal on the
outside.
4
The adapter will be labeled 9VDC or 12VDC. When testing, the reading should be
a few volts higher than the label says. If there is less voltage than what the
label says, you need to replace the adapter.
Test
harness for power supply voltage
1.
After you have tested the adapter for voltage, plug in the machine and take the
console off of the unit.
2.
Turn on the meter to test for DC voltage.
3.
Put one lead on the 1st wire and the other lead on the 3rd wire.
4
You should have basically the same voltage here as you had when you tested the
adapter. If the reading is vastly different, the harness needs to be replaced.
Test
gear motor
1.
If unit is an XE550, go to motor test in engineering mode.
2.
Take off right shroud so you can access the gear motor.
3.
Turn meter on setting to check for DC voltage.
4.
Check for voltage between the yellow and the red wires. (Should be around 4.5v
for 350/550)
5.
Check for voltage between the yellow and orange. Check for voltage between the
red and orange. These two voltages should added together should total the
voltage that you had between the yellow and red.
6.
Press the START button and press the UP button. Check for voltage between the
black and the brown wires. You should get 4-6 volts. (As you can see, you will
need someone to help you with this step.)
Alignment
of speed sensor and magnet
1.
Using a flat screw driver or a knife, take off the round disc cover on the left
side of the unit.
2.
Turn the pedal so the bigger opening is at the top of the hole.
3.
Sensor should be pointing directly at the large pulley and there should be a
magnet in the on the pulley.
Adjusting
brake cable
1.
Take right and left shrouds off.
2.
On the left side of the unit you will find the brake inside of the flywheel.
3.
Using an open end wrench, loosen the small lock nut.
4.
Using the same wrench, loosen the longer nut. As you loosen the nut you will
see this gap get smaller.
5.
The smaller the gap is, the easier the resistance will be at level 1. Dont
adjust out the gap completely.
6.
Tighten down the lock nut.
XE400
and XE500 Incline Calibration
If
the console shows an incline error or does not seem to physically be at the
incline displayed, the unit needs to be calibrated. Press and hold the START
and level UP keys for 5 seconds. The message window will show “Calibration”;
press ENTER. The calibration process is automatic and the system will restart
when finished.
Troubleshooting
Thumping
noise
1.
Clean and lube wheels and rails.
2.
If there is still a thump, check for loose bolts.
3.
If there is still a thump, order new pedal arm bushing housings with IGOS
plastic bushing.
Squeaking
noise in the pedal(XE100 &XE200)
1.
Order and install a new connecting arms.
Adjustable
pedal not staying in the desired position (XE300)
1.
Order and install new threaded bushing and crank pin.
Slide
wheels jumping off of the track
1.
Clean wheels and tracks with rubbing alcohol. All of the sticky and/or dirty
lube must be removed from both the wheels and the tracks.
2.
If the aluminum track has been damaged, order a new aluminum track.
