surrounding areas.
Also use a dry cloth for the areas that you can
I
t reach with the vacuum cleaner. If the
machine has not been used for some time or is excessively dirty, use a dry cloth to wipe
all exposed areas. Replace the cover and screws when finished.
Four Times Per Year -
Clean the belt and the deck surfaces to minimize the effect of
friction between the wood deck and the running belt. Clean the underside of the running
belt and the top of the running deck surface by wiping them with a clean dry towel. Th
i
s
should be done four times per year to prevent premature wear of the deck, running belt,
and the drive motor system.
As Needed -
The running belt may become loose and slip on the drive roller
with
each
foot plant.
To Re-tension the Belt:
While holding down any key on the console, turn the treadmill on;
this brings you into Test Mode. Press Speed
to
increase
the belt speed to 5 mph
(8 kph). Rotate both of the rear roller tension bolts 1/4 of a turn clockwise.
If
the belt
tracks off center, to either side, the running deck will become visible. If this occurs,
it will
be necessary to adjust the running belt back to the center. See Figure 1.

!
CAUTION: Be careful not
to
over tighten the belt. Over tightening the belt can
create excessive tension
on
the front and rear rollers.
To Re-center the Belt:
Use a wrench to tighten the rear roller bolt on the side of the
treadmill towards which the belt is moving. For example: If the belt moves to the right and
the deck becomes exposed on the left, use a wrench to tighten the rear roller bolt on the
right side of the frame, tighten about 1/2 of a turn
(clockwise)
and wait 30 seconds. If the
belt does not move back to the center of the treadmill, make another adjustment to the
same bolt. Once the running belt has been adjusted closer to the center of the treadmill
use about 1/4 of a turn until the belt has been stabilized.
!
CAUTION: While centering the belt choose one bolt
to
adjust. Do not adjust both
bolts.
After the belt has been centered, check the belt tension. Make sure the running belt tension is
tight enough so that the belt does not slip or hesitate when stepped on. Walk on the treadmill
at 3.5-4 mph (5.6-6.4 kph) and every 4th to 5th step throw your weight into your step to feel if
the belt is slipping. If the belt does slip, use a wrench to equally tighten both rear roller
