Bolts
1. Using a 1⁄ 2" socket, turn the left and right
adjusting bolts clockwise 1/2 turn. Use care to
make each adjustment equal to insure proper
belt alignment.
2. Test the belt by running on the belt at about 4
MPH. Hold the handrail lightly and resist the
belt movement with your feet. If walking belt
slips, repeat step 1.

Perform this procedure whenever the belt moves to
one side or the other. Stay off the belt when adjusting
the tracking.

adjustment. The fi gure above shows the location

PREVENTATIVE MAINTENANCE
3. After making an initial adjustment, run the
treadmill for fi ve minutes and observe how the belt
tracks. If the belt continues to move away from
the center, adjust the appropriate side as in Step 2
until properly centered.
NOTICE: Do not over tighten walking belt! The belt
need only be tight enough to prevent it from
slipping during use. Excessive belt tension
will decrease belt life and can damage the
treadmill rollers and drive system.

Belt Replacement

If the walking belt becomes worn from heavy usage,
it may need to be replaced. Call an Authorized
Nautilus ® Fitness Dealer or a Service Technician
to obtain service.
Moving and Storage of Treadmill
Treadmill is extremely heavy and awkward and
requires two people to safely move!
1. Set the treadmill to maximum incline.
2. To avoid electrical shock, turn off the power
switch on the treadmill, then remove the treadmill
power cord from the power source before moving
the treadmill.
Use caution any time the machine is plugged in.
When the treadmill is plugged into a powered
outlet and the treadmill circuit breaker is on, the
unit is receiving power, even if the display is
turned off.
3. Together, lift the rear of the treadmill, then roll it
to the new site using the wheels on the front of
the treadmill.
