TReadBelT TRaCkING adJUsTMeNT
The treadmill is designed so that the tread-belt remains reasonably centered while in use. It is normal for
some belts to drift near one side while in use, depending on a user’s gait and if they favor one leg. But if
during use the belt continues to move toward one side, adjustments are necessary.
seTTING TRead-BelT TRaCkING
a 6 mm allen wrench is provided for this adjustment.
Make tracking adjustments on the left side bolt. set
belt speed at 3 mph ( 5 kmph). Be aware that a small
adjustment can make a dramatic difference which
may not be apparent right away. If the belt is
too
close to the left side
, then turn the bolt only a 1/4
turn to the right (clockwise) and wait a few minutes for
the belt to adjust itself.
Continue to make 1/4 turns until the belt stabilizes in
the center of the running deck. If the belt is
too close
to the right side
, turn the bolt counter-clockwise.
The belt may require periodic tracking adjustment
depending on use and walking/running characteristics. some users may affect tracking differently. expect
to make adjustments as required to center the tread-belt. adjustments will become less of a maintenance
concern as the belt is used. Proper belt tracking is an owner responsibility common with all treadmills.
ATTENTION:
DAMAGE TO THE RUNNING BELT RESULTING FROM IMPROPER TRACKING /
TENSION ADJUSTMENTS IS NOT COVERED UNDER THE WARRANTY
