MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS
WALKING BELT CENTERING AND TENSION ADJUSTMENT
DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN the walking belt.
This may cause reduced motor performance and excessive
roller wear.
TO CENTER WALKING BELT:
● Place treadmill on a level surface
● Run treadmill at approximately 3.5 mph
●
If the belt offs the track to the right side, please screw the right adjusting bolt clockwise slowly, noticing
the change of the deviating distance, until center the belt. (Attention: the space between the belt and the
right/left edgings is at a distance normally. And the gap between the right and left distance should be no
more than 5mm.
●
If the belt offs the track to the left side, please screw the left adjusting bolt clockwise slowly, noticing
the change of the deviating distance, until center the belt. (Attention: the space between the belt and the
right/left edgings is at a distance normally. And the gap between the right and left distance should be no
more than 5mm.

TENSIONING THE BELT
If you can feel a slipping sensation when running on the treadmill, the running belt must be
tightened. In most cases, the belt has stretched from use, causing the belt to slip. This is a normal
and common adjustment. To eliminate this slipping, tension both the rear roller bolts with the
appropriate size Allen wrench, turning it
1/4 TURN
to the right as shown. Try the treadmill again to
check for slipping.
Repeat, if necessary, but NEVER TURN the roller bolts more than
1/4 turn
at a time. The belt
tension is set properly when the running belt is
50 - 75mm
from the deck.
WARNING: ALWAYS UNPLUG THE TREADMILL FROM THE ELECTRICAL OUTLET BEFORE
CLEANING OR SERVICING THE UNIT.
CAUTION!
During exercise, heavy sweating can cause mechanical and electrical damage to the
machine. Like any other liquid substance, sweat can cause damage mainly to the electrical parts of
the machine (dial, cables, etc.). The best solution is to use a towel during exercise and wipe the
machine after each use to avoid any unwanted damage.
