TREADMILL 17
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. Adjustment
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 diagram 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 un-
der 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 maxi-
mized 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.
