Treadmill: Checking the Alignment of
the Running Belt
Proper belt alignment allows the belt to remain centered and
ensures smooth operation. Realigning the belt takes a few simple
adjustments. If you are unsure about this procedure, call Precor
Customer Support. Refer to Obtaining Service.
CAUTION: Special care must be taken when aligning the running
belt. Turn Off the treadmill while adjusting or working near the
rear roller. Remove any loose clothing and tie back your hair. Be
very careful to keep your fingers and any other object clear of the
belt and rollers, especially in front of the roller and behind the
deck. The treadmill will not stop immediately if an object
becomes caught in the belt or rollers.

Make sure that the running surface is level. To operate correctly,
the treadmill needs to be as level as possible. If needed, the rear
feet can be adjusted to level the treadmill (refer to the Assembly
Guide).
Turn the equipment On.
Stand beside the treadmill and press QUICKSTART.
If needed, enter the safety code by pressing the number keys in
sequence: 1, 2, 3, 4.
The running belt starts automatically after a 3-second
countdown appears on the display.
Press the SPEED up key until the display shows a speed of
3 mph (5 kph).
CAUTION: If you hear any chafing or the running belt appears
to be getting damaged, stop the running belt immediately by
pressing the red STOP button. Contact Precor Customer
Support.
Walk around to the rear of the equipment and observe the belt
for a few minutes. The belt should run centered along the
running bed. If the belt drifts off center, you must make
adjustments. Refer to Treadmill: Adjusting the Running Belt.
Important: Failure to align the belt may cause the belt to tear or
fray, which is not covered by the Precor Limited Warranty.
To stop the running belt, press the red STOP button.
Turn the treadmill Off.
