Tensioning The Belt; Profiles - Horizon Fitness PARAGON II Owner's Manual

paragon II owner's guide v1.1.qxd 8/14/2001
DO NOT STAND ON THE BELT
While you are preparing to use the treadmill, do not stand on
the belt. Place your feet on the side rails before starting the
treadmill. Start walking on the belt only after the belt has begun
to move. Never start the treadmill at a fast running speed and
attempt to jump on!

TENSIONING THE BELT

If you can feel a slipping sensation when running on the tread-
mill, the running belt must be tightened. In most cases, the belt
has stretched from use, causing the belt to slip. This is a normal
and common adjustment. To eliminate this slipping, tension
both the rear roller bolts with the 8
1/4 TURN to the right as shown. Try the treadmill again to check
for slipping. Repeat if necessary, but NEVER TURN the roller
bolts more than 1/4 turn at a time. The belt tension is set
properly when the running belt is 1/4 of an inch from the deck.
