MAINTENANCE
Note:
Adjustment is through the small hold on the end caps.
Tighten the rear roller only enough to prevent slippage at the front roller. Turn both the right and left bolt
clockwise reasonably and inspect for proper tension. When an adjustment is made to the belt tension, you
must also make a tracking adjustment to compensate for the change in belt tension.
DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN – Over tightening will cause belt damage and premature bearing failure.
NOTE:
ONLY USE HALF THE BOTTLE OF LUBRICANT PER APPLICATION.
BELT TRACKING ADJUSTMENT
This Trojan Marathon 230 Treadmill is designed to keep the belt reasonably centred while in use. It is normal for
some belts to drift near one side while the belt is running with no one on it. After a few minutes of use, the belt
should have a tendency to centre itself. If during use, the belt continues to move toward one side, adjustments
are necessary.
The procedures are as below:
•
First set speed at lowest position.
•
Check which side the belt shifts to.
•
If the belt shifts to right, tighten the right bolt and loosen the left bolt by using Hexagonal Wrench (6 mm),
until the belt has centred itself.
•
If the belt shifts to left, tighten the left bolt and loosen the right bolt by using Hexagonal Wrench (6 mm),
until the belt is centred. When adjusting the belt using the Hexagonal Wrenches (6 mm), it is important to
adjust the belt in half turn increments. Over adjusting the belt can cause damage to the mat.
