SOURCE: incline motor is not working

Dear Sir:

1) If everything is working , now the only thing you can do:

2) check the Motor Lift the Voltage DC ( direct current) is diffferent from the Motor Drive that work with 115 VAC( Voltage alternating current). See the Voltage in the plate of the Motor if 48Vdc or whatever voltage is indicated.

3) Check the breaker and reset , and clean with solution with 50% oxigened water and 50& ethilic alcohol (100%).

4) If all is clean, turn on the motor Lift, and See if there are voltage and the terminal Motor( Check with VOM-Voltimeter in the range DC,) .
Check again the voltage indicate in the plate of Motor, if the Motor is NOT Working, the Motor is Bad( Some brushes wear, and winding overheating) replace or repair.

Conctac me, if you need some additional Help.

sincerely.

Have a great time, blessing.

1) test the power cord for open, break
2) see if there some animal, bid the some wires internal, and get touch with the chassins provoking the short in the machine.

6) do NOT use extension cord, and buy some detector spikes, glitch,transient.
