TREAD-BELT
TRACKING ADJUSTMENT
The treadmill is designed so that the tread-belt remains reasonably centered while in use. It is normal
for some belts to drift near one side while in use, depending on a user’s gait and if they favor one leg.
But if during use the belt continues to move toward one side, adjustments arenecessary.
TO SET TREAD-BELT TRACKING
A 6 mm Allen wrench (
132
) is provided for this
adjustment. Make tracking adjustments on the
left side bolt. Set belt speed at 3 MPH. 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. Some
users may affect tracking differently. Expect to make adjustments as required to center the
tread-belt. Adjustments will become less of a maintenance concern as the belt is used. Proper
belt tracking is an owner responsibility common with all treadmills.
ATTENTION:
DAMAGE TO THE RUNNING BELT RESULTING FROM IMPROPER TRACKING / TENSION ADJUSTMENTS
IS NOT COVERED UNDER THE WARRANTY.
TREADMILL BELT
The walking belt on your new Sole treadmill is made of the highest quality materials designed to
last even under punishing conditions. When a treadmill belt is brand new, and has been in the
package for a few months before use, a common occurrence can happen; the area of the belt
that wraps around the rollers will take on the shape of the roller. Upon starting the treadmill this
shape in the belt causes a thumping sound each time the belt moves past the rollers. Once the
treadmill has been used for a few workouts, the belt wears in and the thumping sound goes
away. This noise is normal on new higher end belts so there is no need to contact service; the
new belt just requires a wear in period. Thank you for choosing Sole and enjoy your new
treadmill.
