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.
Before you adjust the belt tension, start the treadmill by pushing the START button.
Be sure not to touch the walking belt or step on the power cord. Keep bystanders and children away from
the product you are servicing at all times.
2.
Use 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 until the belt does not slip.
3.
After you adjust each side the 1/2 turn, do a test to see if the belt stopped slipping. If the belt still slips, do steps 2 and 3
again.
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
The walking belt should be centered on your treadmill at all times. Running style and a non-level surface can cause the belt to
move off center. Minor adjustments to the 2 bolts at the rear of the treadmill are necessary when the belt is off center.
The edges of the Walking Belt should be under the Side Foot Support Rails. If an edge of the Walking Belt
can be viewed, be sure to adjust the Walking Belt until the edges are not viewable and are below the Side
Foot Support Rails.
1.
Push the START button to start the walking belt.
Be sure not to touch the walking belt or step on the power cord. Keep bystanders and children away from
the product you are servicing at all times.
2.
Stand at the rear of the treadmill to see which direction the belt moves.
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.
