NordicTrack NATL81205.0 - Manual (Page 27)

Locate the Reed Switch (10) and the Magnet (7) on
the left side of the Pulley (8). Turn the Pulley until the
Magnet is aligned with the Reed Switch.
Make sure
that the gap between the Magnet and the Reed
Switch is about 3 mm (1/8 in.). If necessary, loosen
the Screw (27), move the Reed Switch slightly, and
then retighten the Screw. Reattach the Hood (not
shown), making sure the screws are in the same holes
from which they were removed. Run the treadmill for a
few minutes to check for a correct speed reading.
PROBLEM: The walking belt slows when walked on
SOLUTION: a. If an extension cord is needed, use only a 3-conductor, 1mm 2 (14-gauge) cord that is no longer
than 1.5 m (5 ft.).
b. If the walking belt is overtightened, treadmill perfor-
mance may decrease and the walking belt may be-
come damaged. Remove the key and
UNPLUG THE
POWER CORD. Using the allen wrench, turn both
rear roller bolts counterclockwise, 1/4 of a turn. When
the walking belt is properly tightened, you should be
able to lift each edge of the walking belt 7 to 10 cm (3
to 4 in.) off the walking platform. Be careful to keep
the walking belt centred. Plug in the power cord, in-
sert the key, and run the treadmill for a few minutes.
Repeat until the walking belt is properly tightened.
c. If the walking belt still slows when walked on, see the front cover of this manual.
PROBLEM: The walking belt is off-centre or slips when walked on
SOLUTION: a. If the walking belt is off-centre, remove the key and
UNPLUG THE POWER CORD. If the walking belt
has shifted to the left, use the allen wrench to turn
the left rear roller bolt clockwise 1/2 of a turn;
if the
walking belt has shifted to the right, turn the left
rear roller bolt counterclockwise 1/2 of a turn. Be
careful not to overtighten the walking belt. Plug in the
power cord, insert the key, and run the treadmill for a
few minutes. Repeat until the walking belt is centred.
b. If the walking belt slips when walked on, first remove
the key and UNPLUG THE POWER CORD. Using
the allen wrench, turn both rear roller bolts clockwise,
1/4 of a turn. When the walking belt is correctly tight-
ened, you should be able to lift each edge of the
walking belt 7 to 10 cm (3 to 4 in.) off the walking plat-
form. Be careful to keep the walking belt centred.
Plug in the power cord, insert the key, and carefully
walk on the treadmill for a few minutes. Repeat until
the walking belt is properly tightened.
