MAINTENANCE 

 

HOW TO MAINTAIN THE EVO FX2 TREADMILL

 
Proper maintenance is very important to ensure your treadmill is always in top working condition.  Improper maintenance 
could cause damage or shorten the life of your treadmill and exceed the LIMITED WARRANTY coverage. 
 

??

Important

: Never use abrasives or solvents to clean the treadmill.  To prevent damage to the computer, keep liquids 

away and keep it out of direct sunlight. 

 

??

Inspect and tighten all parts of the treadmill regularly.  Replace any worn parts immediately. 

 

BELT ADJUSTMENT

 
Belt adjustment and tension performs two functions: adjustment for tension and centering.  The running belt has been 
adjusted properly at the factory. However transportation, uneven flooring or other unpredicted reasons could cause the belt to 
shift off center resulting in the belt rubbing with the plastic side rail or end caps and possibly causing damage.  To adjust the 
belt back to it’s proper position please follow the directions below: 
 

??

Walking belt has shifted to the left

:

  

First unplug the power cord from the surge protector.  Using the hex key 

provided, turn the left rear roller adjustment bolt 1/4 turn in the clockwise direction.  Plug the power cord back into 
the surge protector and run the treadmill at 2.5 mph.  You should see the belt start to correct itself, moving back 
towards the center.  Repeat the above procedure until the walking belt is centered.  It may be necessary to set 
walking belt tension once you have completed this procedure if the belt feels like it is slipping while walking. Refer 
below to the "Walking belt slipping" instructions. 

 

??

Walking belt has shifted to the right:  

First unplug the power cord from the surge protector.  Using the hex key 

provided, turn the right rear roller adjustment bolt 1/4 turn in the clockwise direction.  Plug the power cord back into 
the surge protector and run the treadmill at 2.5 mph.  You should see the belt start to correct itself, moving back 
towards the center.  Repeat the above procedure until the walking belt is centered.  It may be necessary to set 
walking belt tension once you have completed this procedure if the belt feels like it is slipping while walking. Refer 
below to the "Walking belt slipping" instructions. 

 

??

Walking belt is slipping

:

  

First unplug the power cord from the surge protector.  Using the hex key provided, turn 

both the left and right rear roller adjustment bolts the same distance, usually a 1/4 turn in the clockwise direction.  
Plug the power cord back into the surge protector and run the treadmill at 2.5 mph.  You should now walk on the belt 
to determine if the belt is still slipping. Repeat the above procedure until the walking belt is not slipping.  The tension 
should be just tight enough not to slip. 

 

WARNING! Do not over tighten rollers!  This will cause premature roller bearing failure!

 

 
 

 

 

Right and left tension bolts are located at the rear of the treadmill.
