SYMPTOM: The walking belt slows when walked on
a.
Use only a surge suppressor that meets all of the
specifications described on page 15.

If the walking belt is overtightened, incline trainer
performance may decrease and the walking belt
may become damaged. First, adjust the incline to
40 percent. Then, remove the key and
UNPLUG
THE POWER CORD.
Using the hex key, turn both
idler roller screws counterclockwise, 1/4 of a turn.
When the walking belt is properly tightened, you
should be able to lift each edge of the walking belt
3 to 4 in. (8 to 10 cm) off the walking platform. Be
careful to keep the walking belt centered. Then,
plug in the power cord, insert the key, and run the
incline trainer for a few minutes. Repeat until the
walking belt is properly tightened.
c.
Your incline trainer features a walking belt coated
with high-performance lubricant.
IMPORTANT:
Never apply silicone spray or other substances
to the walking belt or the walking platform
unless instructed to do so by an authorized
service representative. Such substances may
deteriorate the walking belt and cause exces-
sive wear.
If you suspect that the walking belt
needs more lubricant, see the front cover of this
manual.

If the walking belt still slows when walked on, see
the front cover of this manual.
