c. Your treadmill 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 deterio-
rate the walking belt and cause excessive wear.
If you suspect that the walking belt needs more
lubricant, see the front cover of this manual.
d. If the walking belt still slows when walked on, see
the front cover of this manual.
SYMPTOM: The walking belt is not centered
between the foot rails
a. IMPORTANT: If the walking belt rubs against the
foot rails, the walking belt may become dam-
aged. First, remove the key and UNPLUG THE
POWER CORD. If the walking belt has shifted to
the left, use the hex key to turn the left idler roller
screw clockwise 1/2 of a turn; if the walking belt
has shifted to the right, turn the left idler roller
screw counterclockwise 1/2 of a turn. Be careful
not to overtighten the walking belt. Then, plug in
the power cord, insert the key, and walk on the
treadmill for a few minutes. Repeat until the
walking belt is centered.
SYMPTOM: The walking belt slips when walked on
a. First, remove the key and UNPLUG THE POWER
CORD. Using the hex key, turn both idler roller
screws clockwise, 1/4 of a turn. When the walk-
ing belt is correctly tightened, you should be able
to lift each edge of the walking belt 2 to 3 in. (5 to
7 cm) off the walking platform. Be careful to keep
the walking belt centered. Then, plug in the power
cord, insert the key, and walk on the treadmill for a
few minutes. Repeat until the walking belt is prop-
erly tightened.
