Walking Belt Adjustment
The walking belts need to be adjusted if they are out of center enough to cause a
rubbing or scraping sound. Adjustments can be made at the Front Roller of each
Treadle (Item A).
Belt Alignment Check
– Stand adjacent to the unit and set the speed to 1.5
MPH. The alignment adjustment bolts are on the front end of each Roller. If the
belt is tracking too far to the right, use a 5 mm Hex Key to turn the right adjust-
ment bolt clockwise on that belt in full turn increments. If the belt tracks too far to
the left, do the same thing
on the left adjustment bolt.
Note:
Do not turn the bolts counterclockwise when you adjust the belt
alignment.
Belt Tension Adjustment
– Check the belt tension only when the machine is
unplugged. From the belt’s midpoint, a correctly tensioned belt should only have
an inch of give. To check, pull the belt upward at it’s midpoint and measure the
distance to the deck. If the distance is more than an inch, the belt is loose. To
tighten, turn both bolts clockwise one-half a turn and check tension again. Repeat
this step if necessary. Be sure not to over-tighten the belts.
Note:
Bolts are turned counterclockwise equally to decrease belt ten-
sion.
16. Final Inspection
Inspect your machine to ensure that all hardware is tight and components are
properly assembled.
Do not use until the machine has been fully assembled and inspected
for correct performance in accordance with the Owner’s Manual.
