The Life Fitness treadmill has tensioning bolts that adjust the tracking and centering of the
striding belt. It will be necessary to remove the user, front frame caps to access these
tensioning bolts.
NOTE: It is extremely important that the treadmill be correctly leveled prior to any tracking
adjustments. An unstable unit may cause striding belt misalignment. see "How to
Stabilize the Life Fitness Treadmill" prior to attempting any roller adjustments.
Before proceeding, it is helpful to
visualize the FRONT ROLLER
pivot point. Each adjustment made
to one side of the ROLLER must
be met with an equal and opposite
adjustment to the other side of the
ROLLER to maintain an ideal belt
tension at the pivot point.
