TR800 Treadmill
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
are necessary.
SETTING TREAD-BELT TRACKING
An 6mm Allen wrench 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 XTERRA Fitness warranty.

Belt/Deck Lubrication Procedure
First, you want to clean between the belt and deck to remove any debris that may be trapped.
Use a clean, non-fraying rag, t-shirt, or light towel. Halfway between the end of the treadmill
and motor cover, shove the garment under the belt until you can grasp it on both sides of the
belt. Drag the garment the length of the entire belt 1-2 times. Remove the garment.
Do not lubricate with anything other than XTERRA Fitness approved lubricant.
Your treadmill
comes with one tube of “Lube” and extra tubes can be ordered directly from
www.xterrafitness.com
.
Keeping the deck lubricated at the recommended intervals ensures the longest life possible
for your treadmill. If the lubricant dries out, the friction between the belt and deck rises and
places undue stress on the drive motor, drive belt and electronic motor control board, which
could result in failure of these components. Failure to lubricate the deck at regular intervals
may void the warranty.
