LIMITED WARRANTY

CENTERING THE RUNNING BELT

The  running  belt  has  been  properly  adjusted  at  the 

factory  before  it  was  shipped.  At  times  the  belt  can 

move off-center during shipment. Before operating the 

treadmill, make sure the belt is centered and remains 

centered to maintain smooth operation.

CAUTION:

  Do  not  run  belt  faster  than  1  mph  while 

centering.  Keep  fingers,  hair  and  clothing  away  from 

belt at all times.

If the running belt is too far to the right side:

 

With  the  treadmill  running  at  1  mph,  turn  the  right 

adjustment bolt clockwise 1/4 TURN at a time (using 

the supplied Allen wrench). Check the belt alignment. 

Allow belt to run a full cycle to gauge if more adjustment 

is needed. Repeat if necessary, until the belt remains 

centered during use.

If the running belt is too far to the left side:

 

With  the  treadmill  running  at  1  mph,  turn  the  right 

adjustment bolt counter-clockwise 1/4 TURN at a time 

(using  the  supplied  Allen  wrench).  Check  the  belt 

alignment. Allow belt to run a full cycle to gauge if more 

adjustment  is  needed.  Repeat  if  necessary,  until  the 

belt remains centered during use.

Belt is too far to the right side

Belt is too far to the left side

 TENSIONING THE RUNNING BELT

The  running  belt  has  been  properly  adjusted  at  the 

factory  before  it  was  shipped.  At  times  the  belt  can 

move off-center during shipment.

CAUTION:

  Running  belt  should  NOT  be  moving  during 

tensioning.  Over-tightening  the  running  belt  can 

cause  excessive  wear  on  the  treadmill  as  well  as  its 

components.  Never over-tighten the belt.

If you can feel a slipping sensation when running on the 

treadmill, the running belt must be tightened. In most 

cases,  the  belt  has  stretched  from  use,  causing  the 

belt to slip. This is a normal and common adjustment. 

To  eliminate  this  slipping, 

TURN  THE  TREADMILL  OFF 

and tension 

BOTH THE REAR ROLLER BOLTS

 using the 

supplied  Allen  wrench,  turning  them  1/4  TURN  to  the 

right  as  shown.  Turn  the  treadmill  on  and  check  for 

slipping.  Repeat  if  necessary,  but  NEVER  TURN  the 

roller bolts more than 1/4 turn at a time. Belt is properly 

tensioned when the slipping sensation is gone.
