WALKING BELT ADJUSTMENT
Adjustment
Bolt Location
CENTERING THE BELT: If the walking belt
is off center to the RIGHT:
A. If the belt is off-center, first run the treadmill with no user
on it at 4 mph for 1-2 minutes to allow the walking belt
re-center on its own. If this fails, continue to step 2.
B. Stand behind the treadmill, with the treadmill running at
4 mph (6 kph). If the belt tracks off center to the right,
please follow the steps in Step 3 to center the belt.
Caution: Be very careful to keep your fingers and
any loose object away from the belt and rollers.
C. Use the Allen Wrench –
a. To turn the right rear roller adjustment bolt 1/4 turn
in clockwise direction, which moves the running belt
to the left.
b. Or turn the left rear roller adjustment bolt 1/4 turn
in counterclockwise direction, which moves the
running belt to the left.
Caution: Do not turn the adjustment bolt more than
¼ turn at a time. Over tightening the belt can
damage the treadmill.
Repeat the above procedure until the walking belt is
centered. It may be necessary to the test walking belt
tension once you have completed the above procedure if
the belt feels like it's slipping while walking. Refer to the
"Walking Belt Slipping" instructions.
WALKING BELT SLIPPING: If the walking
belt slips when used:
A. First remove and unplug the power cord. Using the Allen
Wrench, turn both left and right rear roller adjustment
bolts clockwise, usually a ¼ turn. NOTE: NEVER TURN
the bolts more then 1/4 turn at a time and always
keep the running belt centered.
B. Test the tightness of the belt. NOTE: Overtightening the
belt can damage the treadmill.
C. Plug in the power cord, insert the key and walk on the
treadmill at low speed (around 1 mph/2 kph) to determine
if the belt is still slipping. If the belt is still slipping, repeat
the above procedure until the walking belt has been
tightened properly.
