TR6.4 Treadmill

Tread-belt Tension Adjustment - Belt tension is not critical for most users. It is very important 

though for joggers and runners in order to provide a smooth, steady running surface. Adjust-

ment must be made from the rear roller with the 6mm Allen wrench provided in the parts 

package. The adjustment bolts are located at the end of the step rails as shown in the dia-

gram 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. 

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.

Belt and Deck

 - Your treadmill uses a very high-efficient low-friction deck. Performance is 

maximized when the deck is kept as clean as possible. Use a soft, damp cloth or paper towel 

to wipe the edge of the belt and the area between the belt edge and frame. Also reach as 

far as practical directly under the belt edge. This should be done once every other month to 

extend belt and deck life. Use water only - no cleaners or abrasives. A mild soap and water 

solution along with a nylon scrub brush will clean the top of the textured belt. 

Allow the belt 

to dry before using.

Belt Dust 

- This occurs during normal break-in or until the belt stabilizes. Wiping excess off 

with a damp cloth will minimize buildup.

General Cleaning

 - Dirt, dust, and pet hair can block air inlets and accumulate on the running 

belt. On a monthly basis: vacuum underneath your treadmill to prevent buildup. Every other 

month, you should remove the black motor hood and carefully vacuum out dirt that may  

accumulate. UNPLUG POWER CORD BEFORE THIS TASK.

There is a maintenance schedule/chart included under the Table of Contents for convenient 

record keeping.
