Belt Adjustments

Tread-belt Tension Adjustment - Belt tension is not critical for most users. It is very important
though for joggers and runners in order to provide a smooth, steady running surface.
Adjustment must be made from the rear roller with the 6 mm Allen wrench (132) provided in
the parts package. The adjustment bolts are located at the end of the step rails as shown in the
diagram below. Note: Adjustment is through small hole in end cap. Tracking / Tension

NOTE: Adjustment is through small hole in end cap.
Tighten the rear roller only enough to prevent
slippage at the front roller. Turn the tread-belt
tension adjusting bolts 1/4 turn each and inspect
for proper tension by walking on the belt and
making sure it is not slipping or hesitating with
each step. When an adjustment is made to the
belt
tension, you must be sure to turn the bolts on
both
sides evenly or the belt could start tracking to one
side instead of running in the middle of the deck.
DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN–Over tightening will cause belt damage and premature bearing
failure. If you tighten the belt a lot and it still slips, the problem could actually be the drive belt
-located under the motor cover - that connects the motor to the front roller. If that belt is loose it
feels similar to the walking belt being loose. Tightening the motor belt should be done by a trained
service person.
TREAD-BELT TRACKING ADJUSTMENT
The treadmill is designed so that the tread-belt remains reasonably centered while in use. It is
normal for some belts to drift near one side while in use, depending on a user's gait and if they
favor one leg. But if during use the belt continues to move toward one side, adjustments arenecessary.
SETTING TREAD-BELT TRACKING
A 6 mm Allen wrench (132)is provided for this
adjustment. Make tracking adjustments on the
left side bolt. Set belt speed at 3 mph. Be aware
that a small adjustment can make a dramatic
difference which may not be apparent right away.
If the belt is too close to the left side,then turn
the bolt only a 1/4 turn to the right (clockwise)
and wait a few minutes for the belt to adjust itself.
Continue to make 1/4 turns until the belt stabilizes in
the center of the running deck.
If the belt is too close to the right side, turn the bolt counter-clockwise. The belt may require
periodic tracking adjustment depending on use and walking/running characteristics. Some
users may 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
