Checking the Alignment of the Running Belt

The belt is aligned at the factory before shipment. However, during shipment or by
using the treadmill on an uneven surface, the belt might move off center. Proper belt
alignment is important because it allows the belt to remain centered and assures
smooth operation.
Follow these steps to check the alignment:
1. The treadmill has adjustable rear feet. Check to make sure that the running
surface is level (refer to steps 16 and 17 on the previous pages). If the treadmill
is placed on a slightly uneven surface, adjusting the rear feet can help, but will
not compensate for extremely uneven surfaces.
2. Locate the I/O switch at the front of the treadmill and turn the unit ON.
3. Stand beside the treadmill and press Quick Start.
4. If necessary, enter the password: Incline
The running belt starts automatically after the message, " Belt Starting 3, 2, 1,... "
appears.
5. Continue standing next to the treadmill and hold down the Speed
display shows a speed of 3 miles per hour (5 kph).
6. Walk around to the rear of the unit and observe the belt for a few minutes as it
moves.

Important: If you notice that the belt needs alignment, make the adjustments at
once. Failure to do so might cause the belt to tear or fray which is not covered by
the Precor limited warranty.
7. To stop the running belt, press the red Stop button.
