Congratulations for purchasing the SOFTSTRIDER
S300i™ treadmill by HealthRider
®
. The SOFTSTRIDER
S300i offers an impressive array of features to help
you achieve your fitness goals in the convenience of
your home. From the advanced console to the cush-
ioned walking belt, the SOFTSTRIDER S300i is de-
signed to make each workout more effective and en-
joyable. And when you’re not exercising, the SOFT-
STRIDER S300i can be folded away, taking less than
half the floor space of conventional treadmills.
For your benefit, read this manual carefully before
using the treadmill. If you have additional questions,
please call our our Customer Service Department at
08457-089009. To help us assist you, please note the
product model number and serial number before call-
ing. The model number is HETL09910. The serial
number can be found on a decal attached to the tread-
mill (see the front cover of this manual for the location).

PROBLEM
SOLUTION
a. If the walking belt has shifted to the
left, first remove the key and UNPLUG
THE POWER CORD. Using the allen
wrench, turn the left rear roller adjustment
bolt clockwise, and the right bolt counter-
clockwise, 1/4 of a turn each. Be careful
not to overtighten the walking belt. Plug in
the power cord, insert the key and run the
treadmill for a few minutes. Repeat until the walking belt is centred.
b. If the walking belt has shifted to the
right, first remove the key and UNPLUG
THE POWER CORD. Using the allen
wrench, turn the left rear roller adjustment
bolt counterclockwise, and the right bolt
clockwise, 1/4 of a turn each. Be careful
not to overtighten the walking belt. Plug in
the power cord, insert the key and run the
treadmill for a few minutes. Repeat until the walking belt is centred.
c. If the walking belt slips when walked
on, first remove the key and UNPLUG
THE POWER CORD. Using the allen
wrench, turn both rear roller adjustment
bolts clockwise, 1/4 of a turn. When the
walking belt is correctly tightened, you
should be able to lift the edges of the
walking belt 7 to 10 cm (3 to 4 in.) off the
walking platform. Be careful to keep the walking belt centred. Plug in the power
cord, insert the key and run the treadmill for a few minutes. Repeat until the walk-
ing belt is properly tightened.
a. Remove the key from the console and UN-
PLUG THE POWER CORD. Next, remove
the screws from the hood and carefully re-
move the hood. Locate the Reed Switch
(26) and the Magnet (85) on the left side of
the Pulley (28). Turn the Pulley until the
Magnet is aligned with the Reed Switch.
Make sure that the gap between the
Magnet and the Reed Switch is about
3 mm (1/8 in.). If necessary, loosen the
Reed Switch Screw (20) and move the Reed Switch slightly. Retighten the Screw.
Re-attach the hood, and run the treadmill for a few minutes to check for a correct
speed reading.
a. Due to variations in humidity and temperature, there is a possibility that
bubbles may form in the walking belt. Although the bubbles will disappear with
time, you may unplug the power cord, carefully insert a needle into the bubbles,
and push the air out of the bubbles.
