Belt Dust
This occurs during normal break-in or until the
belt stabilizes. Wiping excess off with a damp
cloth will minimize build-up.
General Cleaning
Dirt, dust, and pet hair can block air inlets and
accumulate on the running belt. On a monthly
basis: vacuum underneath your treadmill to
prevent buildup. Twice a year, you should remove
the black motor hood and vacuum out dirt that
may accumulate.
UNPLUG POWER CORD BEFORE THIS TASK.
Belt adjustments
Adjustment must be made from the rear roller.
The adjustment bolts are located at the end of the
step rails in the end caps.
- Tighten the rear roller bolts (clockwise) only
enough to prevent slippage at the front roller.
Turn both running belt tension adjustment
bolts in increments of 1/4 turn each and inspect
for proper tension by walking on the belt at a
low speed, making sure the belt does not slip.
Keep tensioning the bolts until the belt stops
slipping.
- If you feel the belt is tight enough, but it still
slips, the problem may be a loose Motor drive
belt under the front cover.
- Do Not Over-tighten
Over tightening will cause belt damage and
premature bearing failure.
Running belt tracking adjustment
The performance of your treadmill is dependent
on the frame running on a reasonably level
surface. If the frame is not level, the front and
back roller cannot run parallel, and constant belt
adjustment may be necessary.
The treadmill is designed to keep the running belt
reasonably centered while in use. It is normal for
some belts to drift near one side while the belt is
running with no one on it. After a few minutes of
use, the running belt should have a tendency to
center itself. If, during use, the belt continues to
move toward one side, adjustments are necessary.
Exception:
During rehabilitation where the user is using one
leg much stronger than the other, it might happen
that the running belt drifts to one side. In these
cases you should not adjust unless the running
22
belt does not centre itself during normal condition
usage.
To set running belt tracking (fig. F-5)
A 10 mm Allen wrench is provided to adjust the
rear roller. Make tracking adjustments from the
left side only. Set belt speed at approximately 3
to 5 kph.
Remember, a small adjustment can make a
dramatic difference!
Turn the bolt clockwise to move the belt to the
right. Counterclockwise to move to the left. Turn
the bolt only a 1/4 turn and wait a few minutes
for the belt to adjust itself. Continue to make 1/4
rotation turns until the belt stabilizes in the center
of the running deck.
The belt may require periodic tracking
adjustment depending on use and walking/
running characteristics. Some users will affect
tracking differently. Expect to make adjustments
as required to center the tread-belt. Adjustments
will become less of a maintenance concern as
the belt is used. Proper belt tracking is an owner
responsibility common with all treadmills.
NOTE
• Damage to the running belt because of
incorrect running-belt adjustments is not
covered by the products warranty.

Troubleshooting

Despite continuous quality control, defects and
malfunctions caused by individual components
may occur in the equipment. In most cases it's
unnecessary to take the whole device in for repair,
as it's usually sufficient to replace the defective
part.
If the equipment does not function properly
during use, contact your Tunturi dealer
immediately. Always give the model and serial
number of your equipment. Please state also
the nature of the problem, conditions of use and
purchase date.
