Tectrix Climbmax 150 - The Climbmax Wont Accelerate to Top Speed

•
22.2 Motor & Slack Switch
Remove the cover (see section 25) and place the Climb Max in Test Mode (see section 3) and run the motor
in both directions. Check for jerkiness or loading down of motor. If the motor doesn't run smoothly, replace
the motor assembly. Check that the slack switch is adjusted properly (see section 27).
22.3 RPM Sensor
Test the climber as described in section 21.2. If the climber passes the test, proceed to section 21.3 for
the next test.
23. The Climb Max Won't Accelerate To Top Speed
23.1 Manual & Program Mode
The Climb Max will never reach 200 fVmin in a program. This speed can only be reached in the manual
mode or in a race. There is a minimum weight of 75 pounds required to accelerate to 200 fVmin. As you press
the up arrow key in the manual mode, a single flashing LED shows the speed you have selected. This is the
command speed LED. The LED's that fill in behind the command LED form a bar graph indicating actual
speed. If the bar graph does not fill in behind the command LED then proceed.
23.2 Friction Belt & Flywheel
Check the friction belt and flywheel for wear and residue (see section 21.1).
• 23.3 Slack Switch
The slack switch must be adjusted correctly for full speed operation (see section 27). The slack switch may
need to be adjusted closer to the friction belt so that it does not open during operation.
