Adjusting the running belt 

When you use a treadmill, the pressure on the running belt is not balanced due to the 

different forces used by the two feet during running, which causes the running belt to deviate 
from the centre. This is completely normal and will require that you adjust the running belt 

back to the re-centre it. 
 

 

First observe which side the walking belt is skewed while running. 

 

If it is biased to the left, use the 6mm Allen key to rotate the left adjustment screw 
clockwise by a 1/2 turn. 

 

If it is biased to the right, use the 6mm Allen key to rotate the right adjustment screw 
clockwise by a 1/2 turn. 

 

Continue adjusting the two screws until the running belt is centred. 

  

 

 
 

 
Belt tension 

After adjusting the running belt ensure the lowest point of the running belt clears the ground.  

If the belt is making contact with the ground the belt tension will need to be adjusted. 

 

 

 
 

       ADJUSTMENTS 

Left adjustment screw 

Right adjustment screw 

 

The lowest point of the running belt must not touch ground
