Factors affecting the running belt alignment:
a. Whether the treadmill is on a level surface.
b. Your feet impact the belt with uneven forces, so the belt may lose
the alignment over time; the treadmill should be kept running for a
short while after the workout, so that the belt may adjust itself
back to its original alignment.
c. Whether the belt tension is well maintained.
Note
: the running belt should be adjusted only by adjusting the rear roller bolts of the treadmill.
Do not adjust the front rollers bolts on your own; please consult your dealer for assistance if the
front roller bolts need to be adjusted.
How to adjust the running belt tension:
a. Pay attention to the belt tension so that the treadmill can be operated smoothly on a level
surface and to prevent the damage to the parts.
b. When you feel the belt is slipping under your feet, it means you may need to adjust its tension.
c. To increase the tension, use the L type wrench to turn both rear roller adjustment bolts
clockwise by 1 turn.
d. To decrease the tension, use the L type wrench to turn both rear roller adjustment bolts
counter-clockwise by 1 turn.
If the above steps cannot improve the tension and prevent slippage, the motor drive belt may
need to be adjusted, please consult your dealer for assistance.
Caution: Do not over tighten the belt, otherwise not only the running belt may be worn out easily,
the roller bearing can also be damaged over time due to the extra tension pressure.
The running belt should be kept at the center position to ensure a
smooth operation and to prevent any worn out. When the running
belt is off-centered, the belt needs to be manually adjusted and
aligned.
7. Running Belt Adjustment
A. Running Belt Tension Adjustment
A. Keep the treadmill running at the speed of 4-6 km/h, when the
running belt has shifted to the left:
a. Use the L type wrench to turn the left rear roller bolt clockwise ½
of a turn.
b. If more adjustment is needed, turn the right rear roller bolt
counter-clockwise ½ of a turn.
c. If more adjustment is still needed, repeat the above two steps, but
turn only at ¼ of a turn.
B. Keep the treadmill running at the speed of 4-6 km/h, when the
running belt has shifted to the right:
a. Use the L type wrench to turn the right rear roller bolt clockwise ½
of a turn;
b. If more adjustment is needed, turn the left rear roller bolt counter-
clockwise ½ of a turn;
c. If more adjustment is still needed, repeat the above two steps, but
turn only at ¼ of a turn.
