Treadbelt Tracking Adjustment; To Set Treadbelt Tracking - Spirit MT200 User Manual

TREADBELT 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 tread-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 tread-belt should have a tendency to center itself. If, during use, the belt
continues to move toward one side, adjustments are necessary.

TO SET TREADBELT TRACKING:

Use a 10mm Allen wrench to adjust the rear roller. Make tracking adjustments from the left side
only. Set belt speed at approximately 2 to 3
mph.
Remember, a small adjustment can make a
dramatic difference!
Turn the bolt clockwise to move the belt to
the right. 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.
ATTENTION:
DAMAGE TO THE RUNNING BELT RESULTING FROM IMPROPER TRACKING /
TENSION ADJUSTMENTS IS NOT COVERED UNDER THE SPIRIT WARRANTY.
