PROBLEM: The walking belt slows when walked on
SOLUTION:
a. Use only a single-outlet surge suppressor that meets all of the specifications described on page 12.

mance may decrease and the walking belt may be-
come damaged. Remove the key and
UNPLUG THE
POWER CORD.
Using the hex key, turn both idler
roller bolts counterclockwise, 1/4 of a turn. When the
walking belt is properly tightened, you should be able
to lift each edge of the walking belt 3 to 4 in. (8 to 10
cm) off the walking platform. Be careful to keep the
walking belt centered. Then, plug in the power cord,
insert the key, and run the treadmill for a few minutes.
Repeat until the walking belt is properly tightened.

if the walking
belt has shifted to the right,
turn the left idler roller
bolt counterclockwise 1/2 of a turn. 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 centered.
b. If the walking belt slips when walked on, first remove
the key and
UNPLUG THE POWER CORD.
Using the
hex key, turn both idler roller bolts clockwise, 1/4 of a
turn. When the walking belt is correctly tightened, you
should be able to lift each edge of the walking belt 3 to
4 in. (8 to 10 cm) off the walking platform. Be careful
