BELT ADJUSTMENTS:
Treadbelt Tension Adjustment
- Belt tension is not critical for most users. It is very important for
joggers and runners in order to provide a smooth, steady running surface. Adjustment must be
made from the right side of the rear roller in order to adjust tension with the 6 mm Allen wrench
provided in the parts package. The adjustment bolt is located at the end of the right side rail as
noted in diagram below.
Tighten the rear roller only enough to prevent slippage at the front roller. Turn the treadbelt tension
adjusting bolt in increments of 1/4 turn and inspect for proper tension.
When an adjustment is made to the belt tension, you must also make a tracking
adjustment to compensate for the change in belt tension.
This is accomplished by turning both
the tension and tracking Allen bolts an equal amount. This adjustment should be made by turning
both bolts clockwise by no more than a 1/4 turn at a time.
DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN
– Over tightening will cause belt damage and premature bearing failure.
