PROBLEM: The walking belt slows when walked on
SOLUTION:
a. If an extension cord is needed, use only a 3-conductor, 1mm
2
(14-gauge) cord that is no longer
than 1.5 m (5 ft.).
b. If the walking belt is overtightened, treadmill performance
may decrease and the walking belt may become dam-
aged. Remove the key and
UNPLUG THE POWER
CORD
. Using the included hex key, turn both rear roller
adjustment bolts counterclockwise 1/4 of a turn. When
the walking belt is properly 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.
c. If the walking belt still slows when walked on, please call our Customer Service Department.

utes. Repeat until the walking belt is centred.
