Adjusting the Belt Tension
If the walking belt starts to slip during use, it is necessary to adjust the tension. Your treadmill has tension bolts at the rear
of the treadmill.
1.
Make sure that the walking belt is stopped and the power switch is turned Off.
Be sure not to touch a moving walking belt or step on the power cord. Keep bystanders and children away
from the product you are servicing at all times.
2. U se a 6 mm hex key to turn the right and left belt adjustment bolts clockwise a 1/2 turn, first one bolt and then the
other bolt.
3.
After you adjust each side the 1/2 turn, start the belt and do a test to see if the belt stopped slipping. If the belt still
slips, return to step 1 and repeat the procedure.
If you turn one side more than the other, the belt will move away from that side of the treadmill and may need realignment.
NOTICE: Too much tension on the belt causes unnecessary friction and wears the belt, motor and electronics.
4.
Push PAUSE/STOP twice to stop the walking belt and end the Quick Start workout.

Aligning the Walking Belt

Be sure not to touch a moving walking belt or step on the power cord. Keep bystanders and children away
from the product you are servicing at all times.

3.
If the belt moves to the left, turn the left belt adjustment bolt 1/4 turn clockwise and the right belt adjustment bolt 1/4
turn counterclockwise.
If the belt moves to the right, turn the left adjustment bolt 1/4 turn counterclockwise and the right adjustment bolt 1/4
turn clockwise.
