Level the treadmill by placing shims 1/8" to
3/8" thick under the front wheel and rear
shock absorber on one side. N N O O T T E E : : This
method will provide extended belt life by
keeping both rollers parallel. Adjusting the
belt tracking by using the roller bolts will
cause the belt to stretch on one side.
