PROBLEM: The walking belt is off-center or slips when walked on
SOLUTION:
a.
If the walking belt is off-center,
first remove the key
and
UNPLUG THE POWER CORD. If the walking
belt has shifted to the left,
use the hex key to turn
the left rear roller bolt clockwise 1/2 of a turn;
if the
walking belt has shifted to the right,
turn the left
bolt counterclockwise 1/2 of a turn. Be careful not to
overtighten the walking belt. Then, 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 re-
move the key and
UNPLUG THE POWER CORD.
Using the hex key, turn both rear roller bolts clock-
wise, 1/4 of a turn. When the walking belt is correctly
tightened, you should be able to lift each edge of the
walking belt 2 to 3 in. (5 to 7 cm) above the walking
platform. Be careful to keep the walking belt centered.
Then, plug in the power cord, insert the key, and
carefully walk on the treadmill for a few minutes.
Repeat until the walking belt is properly tightened.
