The Proform 930I treadmill is an exercise machine designed for use in a home environment; when not in use, the device folds up for easy storage. The 930's features include a 2.0 CHP motor, adjustable incline settings, a heart rate monitor, a book holder, a built-in fan, preset training programs and support for integration with “iFit” brand workouts. If your Proform 930I ceases to function normally, an inspection of the device's internal components may help to identify the problem.
Motor Replacement
Step 1
Turn on the treadmill and insert the key into the console. Press the bottom incline button until the treadmill's deck is at the lowest level. Remove the treadmill key, turn off the treadmill and unplug the power cord.
Step 2
Remove the screws securing the motor hood in place. Lift the motor hood off the base of the treadmill and set it aside.
Step 3
Disconnect any cables leading from the motor assembly. Slide the motor belt off of the motor pulley. Locate and remove the screws securing the motor assembly to the treadmill's frame.
Step 4
Remove the existing motor assembly from the treadmill and install the new component in its place. Use the previously removed screws to secure the new motor to the frame. Slide the motor belt onto the new motor's pulley; confirm that the belt's position on the motor pulley is aligned with its position on the front roller pulley. Reconnect any previously disconnected cables.
Step 5
Replace the motor hood and use the previously removed screws to secure it back into place.
Console
Step 1
Turn off the treadmill and trace the power cord to its electrical outlet. Confirm that the power cord is connected to a single outlet surge protector plugged into a grounded electrical outlet. Unplug the treadmill's power cord.
Step 2
Remove the screws securing the motor hood in place. Lift the motor hood off the base of the treadmill and set it aside. Examine the reed switch, located next to the motor pulley. Confirm that the gap between the reed switch and the magnet on the pulley is approximately an eighth of an inch; if necessary, loosen the screw on the reed switch and shift it to the proper position.
Step 3
Check the cables leading from the motor assembly for any loose connections. Replace the motor hood and use the previously removed screws to secure it back into place.
Step 4
Remove the screws securing the console to the uprights. Lift the console upward and check the cables located inside the right upright for a loose connection. Use the previously removed screws to secure the console back into place.
