Walking belt misalignment Rear belt guides
Belts should ride on top of
triangular black belt guides at
rear of treadles.
Tracking adjustment Belts are not required to be
perfectly centered and are
typically farther out in the rear
than they are in the front. This
may vary depending on user’s
stride. If belt is tracking to one
side far enough to cause rubbing
of belt, follow belt alignment
procedure in Owner’s Manual.
Hesitation or belt slipping when
walking on unit
Belt tension
If belt hesitates or slips when
walking on unit it may be caused
by either a loose walking belt or
a loose drive belt. To determine
the cause perform the following
test: Stand beside TreadClimber
®
tness machine and set speed to
2 MPH. Step on one treadle and
attempt to stop movement. If
one belt stops but roller at rear
and other belt continue to turn,
walking belt tension should be
adjusted. If both belts stop but
motor is still turning, the drive
belt tension should be adjusted.
Walking belt tension Adjust walking belt tension
at the front of the unit using
the provided hex wrench on
the exposed adjustment bolts
located on each side of each
front roller. Be sure to adjust
both bolts on each roller the
same amount as to not disrupt
belt alignment. Tighten (turn
clockwise) each adjustment bolt
in full turn increments. After
each adjustment, restart unit
and check to see if belt slippage
has been eliminated. Repeat if
necessary. If slipping feel persists
after several adjustments, stop
and refer to drive belt checklist.
Drive belt
Unplug power from unit. Wait
5 minutes to ensure no residual
power remains. Remove plastic
cover under treadles to expose “v”
belt drive line and motor. Tighten
nut on the motor tension bolt
located on front side of motor in
1/2 turn increments until drive
belt slippage is eliminated - DO
