4. SYMPTOM: THE WALKING BELT SLOWS WHEN WALKED ON
a. If an extension cord is needed, use only a 3-conductor, 14-gauge (1mm
2
) cord that is no longer than 1.5 me-
ters.

decrease and the walking belt may be permanently damaged.
Remove the key and

allen wrench, turn both rear roller adjustment bolts counterclock-
wise, 1/4 of a turn. When the walking belt is properly tightened,
you should be able to lift each side of the walking belt 5 to 7 cm
off the walking platform. The centre of the walking belt should
just touch the walking platform. Be careful to keep the walking
belt centred. Plug in the power cord, insert the key and run the
