TENSIONING THE BELT
Running Belt
If when you plant your foot on the belt, you can feel a
slipping sensation then the belt has stretched and is slip-
ping across the rollers. This is a normal and common
adjustment on a new treadmill. To eliminate this slipping,
tension both the rear roller Allen bolts 1/4 TURN as
shown above. Try the treadmill again to check for slip-
ping. Repeat if necessary, but NEVER TURN the roller
bolts more than 1/4 turn at a time. CAUTION: OVER-
TIGHTENING OF THE ROLLER WILL SEVERELY
SHORTEN THE LIFE OF THE BELT AND MAY CAUSE
FURTHER DAMAGE TO OTHER COMPONENTS.
Drive Belt
If you have tensioned the running belt and are still
experiencing a slipping sensation, call your Vision
Fitness Dealer. Tensioning of the drive belt should only
be performed by an authorized dealer.
