Care and maintenance
Belt tension
The belt must be tensioned if it slips during usage. Your treadmill is equipped with
tension bolts that can be reached from the back of the treadmill. Before you tension
the belt, start the treadmill and set the speed to 4.8 km/h (3 mph). With the help of a
6 mm Allen key, which is included in the hardware bag, turn the right and left tension
bolts a half rotation clockwise.
Once you have set both sides with a half rotation, test the treadmill to see if it slips any
more. If it still slips, repeat the step and test it again.
If you turn one side more than the other, the belt will drift off the side and must be
centered /aligned again. Do NOT tighten MORE THAN two full rotations on each side.
If it still slips, please contact your contract partner.
NOTE:
An over-tensioning of the belt may cause unnecessary friction and wear on the
belt, motor and electronic system.
Aligning the running mat
Make sure that the running mat is always centered on your treadmill. The running
style and uneven floors are two things that may cause a drifting of the running mat.
Small adjustments to the bolts (on the back of the treadmill) are required if the belt
moves away from the center.
1. Press “START” and increase the speed of the treadmill to 4.8 km/h (3 mph).
2. Stand behind the treadmill in order to determine which direction it moves away
from.
3. If the belt drifts off to the left, turn the left adjusting bolt 1/4 clockwise and the right
adjusting bolt 1/4 counterclockwise (see figure 1).
4. If the belt drifts off to the right, turn the left adjusting bolt 1/4 counterclockwise and
the right adjusting bolt 1/4 clockwise (see figure 2).
5. Watch the belt run for about two minutes. Repeat steps 3 to 5 if necessary.
