Tensioning The Running Belt; Treadmill Lubrication; Leveling The Treadmill - True PS800 Owner's Manual

CHAPTER 5: CARE & MAINTENANCE

TENSIONING THE RUNNING BELT:

If there is a slipping or jerking sensation when running on the treadmill, the running belt may require tightening. In most
cases the belt has stretched from use. Tensioning the belt takes a few simple adjustments. If you are unsure about this
procedure, call the TRUE Service Department.
• Locate the belt adjustment bolts in the rear end
caps of the treadmill.
• Using the appropriate size Allen wrench or socket
turn BOTH adjustment bolts clockwise ¼ turn.
• Turn the treadmill on and start the belt and check
if the slipping continues.
• Repeat the above steps if additional adjustment
is necessary.

TREADMILL LUBRICATION:

For in-home use over 20 hours per week, TRUE recommends lubricating every three months. For average in-home use of
the treadmill, TRUE recommends lubrication under the tread belt once per year.
•
Loosen the belt adjustment bolts in the rear end
caps.
• Lift the belt and apply the lubricant to the center
of the deck.
• Center and re-tension the belt using the
directions above.
• Walk on the treadmill at 2MPH for about 60
seconds to spread the lubricant evenly through the
belt and deck.
*Please contact your dealer or visit www.truefitness.com to
obtain the proper lubricants.

LEVELING THE TREADMILL:

The treadmill has adjustable rear leveling feet. Make sure that the running surface is level.
If the treadmill is placed on an uneven surface, adjusting the rear feet can help, but may
not completely compensate for extremely uneven surfaces.
