Hi, this is Jim Jackson from Columbia SC. I have an old trotter treadmill 545 that is tripping the breaker in my aerobics area of my gym. I have cleaned the belt, and rewaxed/lubed the deak and belt, but it has not helped.
What it does is when someone is on it, it trips the breaker in my breaker box after just a minute or so, but if no one is on it, it will continue to run. I notice an electrical smell coming from the moter as well. I believe I may need new brushes or just have the moter overhauled. What do you think?
Thanks,
Jim Jackson
