6. ADJUSTMENTS 

 

BELT ADJUSTMENTS 

 
Tread-belt Tension Adjustment must be made from the rear roller with the 6 mm Allen wrench provided in the 

parts package. The adjustment bolts are located at the end of the step rails as shown in the diagram below. 

 

Tighten  the  rear  roller  only  enough  to  prevent  slippage  at  the 

front roller. Turn the tread-belt tension adjusting bolts 1/4 turn 

each and inspect for proper tension by walking on the belt and 

making sure it is not slipping or hesitating with each step. When 

an adjustment is made to the belt tension, you must be sure to 

turn  the  bolts  on  both  sides  evenly  or  the  belt  could  start 

tracking  to  one  side  instead  of  running  in  the  middle  of  the 

deck. 

 

NOTE:  DO  NOT  OVERTIGHTEN  –  Over  tightening  will  cause  belt  damage  and  premature  bearing  failure.  If  you 

tighten the belt a lot and it still slips, the problem could actually be the drive belt - located under the motor cover - 

that  connects  the  motor  to  the  front  roller.  If  that  belt  is  loose  it  feels  similar  to  the  walking  belt  being  loose. 

Tightening the motor belt should be done by a trained service person. 

 

TREADBELT TRACKING ADJUSTMENT 

 
The treadmill is designed so that the tread-belt remains reasonably centered while in use. But if during use the 

belt continues to move toward one side, adjustments are necessary. 

 
 

SETTING TREAD-BELT TRACKING

 

A 6 mm Allen wrench is provided for this adjustment. 

Make tracking adjustments on the left side bolt. Set belt 

speed at 5 km/h. Be aware that a small adjustment can 

make a dramatic difference which may not be apparent 

right away. If the belt is

 too close to the left side

, then 

turn the bolt only a 1/4 turn to the right (clockwise) and 

wait a few minutes for the belt to adjust itself. 

Continue to make 1/4 turns until the belt stabilizes in 

the center of the running deck. If the belt is

 too close to 

the right side

, turn the bolt counter-clockwise. The belt 

may require periodic tracking adjustment depending on use and walking/running characteristics.  

 
 

ATTENTION:

 

DAMAGE TO THE RUNNING BELT RESULTING FROM IMPROPER TRACKING / TENSION ADJUSTMENTS IS NOT 

COVERED UNDER THE WARRANTY.
