BELT ADJUSTMENT
U
BELT ADJUSTMENT
You may need to adjust the running belt during the first weeks of use. All running belts are properly
set at the factory. It may stretch or be off-center after use. Stretching is normal during the break-in
period.
U
ADJUSTING THE BELT TENSION
If the running belt feels as though it is "slipping" or hesitating when you plant your foot, the tension
on the running belt may have to be increased.
U
TO INCREASE THE RUNNING BELT TENSION
A). Place 6mm wrench on the left belt tension bolt. Turn the wrench clockwise 1/4 turn to draw the
rear roller and increase the belt tension.
B). Repeat STEP "A" for the right belt tension bolt. You must be sure to run both bolts the same
number of turns, so the rear roller will stay square relative to the frame.
C). Repeat STEP "A" and STEP "B" until the slipping is eliminated.
D). Be careful not to tighten the running belt tension too much as you can create excessively
pressure on the front and rear roller bearings. An excessively tightened running belt may damage
the roller bearings and may cause bearing noise from the front and rear rollers.
TO DECREASE THE TENSION ON THE RUNNING BELT, TURN BOTH BOLTS
COUNTERCLOCKWISE THE SAME NUMBER OF TURNS.
U
CENTERING THE RUNNING BELT
When you run, you may push off harder with one foot than with another. The severity of the
deflection depends on the amount of force that one foot exerts in the relation to the other. This
deflection can cause the belt to move off-center. This deflection is normal and the running belt
should self center when unloaded. If the running belt remains consistently off-center, you will need
to center the running belt manually.
A). Start the treadmill without anyone on the running belt, press (SPEED UP ) button until speed
reached 6 kph.
B). Observe whether the running belt is toward the right or left side of the deck.
a. If toward the left side of the deck:
Using wrench, turn the left adjustment bolt clockwise 1/4 turn and the right adjustment bolt
counterclockwise ¼
turn .
b. If toward the right side of the deck:
Using wrench, turn the right adjustment bolt clockwise 1/4 turn and the left adjustment bolt
counterclockwise ¼ turn.
c. If the belt is still not centered, repeat the above steps until the running belt is on center.
C). After the belt is centered, increase the speed to 16kph and verify that it is running smoothly.
Repeat the above steps if it is necessary.
If the above procedure is unsuccessful in resolving the off-center, you may need to increase the belt
tension.
Turn clockwise to Increase the
running belt tension
Turn counter-clockwise
to decrease the running
belt tension
