Adjusting the Running Belt
Your 6200N treadmill with a belt alignment gauge located on the left side of the
motor cover. The edge of the running belt should be in the middle of the green
portion of the gauge. If the belt edge is in the green area, the belt does not need
adjusting. If the right edge is in the red portion, the belt needs adjusting immediately
(see Fig. 6).
The belt is properly aligned at the factory. However, during shipping and handling or
by use on an uneven surface, the belt may move off center. Therefore, it is important
that you check the belt's alignment before using the treadmill.
The correct alignment of the running belt is critical for the smooth operation of the
treadmill.
DO NOT ALLOW ANYONE TO WALK ON RUNNING BELT DURING
THIS PROCEDURE.
Failure to realign the belt could result in tearing or fraying of the belt, which is not
covered in the warranty. Please follow the adjustment procedure listed below:
1. Turn on the power switch located on the front of machine.
2. Press the SPEED
key to increase the speed until the speed registers 2.0mph /
3.2kph on the digital display.
3. While the unit is running at 2 mph/3.2kph, determine where the belt is in relation
to the belt alignment gauge.
4. Should your belt be in the wrong color range, follow the steps below to return the
belt to the "safety zone":
5. If the belt is in the left red zone: Turn the left belt adjustment bolt located at the
rear of the treadmill clockwise 1/4 turn at a time, using the hex Allen wrench.
Then turn the right belt adjustment bolt counter-clockwise 1/4 turn. Let the
treadmill run 30 seconds, then check the position of the belt in the color gauge. If
the belt still has not returned to the green safety zone, repeat with another 1/4
turn until the belt has returned to the middle of the green area. Do not turn
adjusting bolt more than1 /4 turn at a time.
If the belt is on the edge of the green color, please adjust it so it is in the
middle of the green color. You may turn the adjustment nut less than 1/4 turn at a
time.
