CENTERING THE RUNNING BELT

The running belt has been properly adjusted at the

factory before it was shipped. At times the belt can

move off-center during shipment. Before operating the

treadmill, make sure the belt is centered and remains

centered to maintain smooth operation.

CAUTION: Do not run belt faster than 1/2 mph while

centering. Keep fingers, hair and clothing away from

belt at all times.

If the running belt is too far to the right side:

With the treadmill running at 1/2 mph, turn the right

adjustment bolt clockwise 1/4 TURN at a time (using

the supplied Allen wrench). Check the belt alignment.

Allow belt to run a full cycle to gauge if more adjustment

is needed. Repeat if necessary, until the belt remains

centered during use.

If the running belt is too far to the left side:

With the treadmill running at 1/2 mph, turn the right

adjustment bolt counter-clockwise 1/4 TURN at a time

(using the supplied Allen wrench). Check the belt

alignment. Allow belt to run a full cycle to gauge if more

adjustment is needed. Repeat if necessary, until the

belt remains centered during use.

Belt is too far to the right side

Belt is too far to the left side

TENSIONING THE RUNNING BELT

The running belt has been properly adjusted at the

factory before it was shipped. At times the belt can

move off-center during shipment.

CAUTION: Running belt should NOT be moving during

tensioning. Over-tightening the running belt can

cause excessive wear on the treadmill as well as its

components. Never over-tighten the belt.

If you can feel a slipping sensation when running on the

treadmill, 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, TURN THE TREADMILL OFF

and tension BOTH THE REAR ROLLER BOLTS using the

supplied Allen wrench, turning them 1/4 TURN to the

right as shown. Turn the treadmill on and check for

slipping. Repeat if necessary, but NEVER TURN the

roller bolts more than 1/4 turn at a time. Belt is properly

tensioned when the slipping sensation is gone.

Note: There is a thin protective sheet of clear plastic on the overlay of the console and should be removed.
