PROBLEM: The walking belt is off-center or slips when walked on
SOLUTION: a. If the walking belt is off-center, first remove the
k
ey and UNPLUG THE POWER CORD. If the
walking belt has shifted to the left, use the hex
k
ey to turn the left idler roller bolt clockwise 1/2 of a
turn; if the walking belt has shifted to the right,
turn the left idler roller bolt counterclockwise 1/2 of
a turn. Be careful not to overtighten the walking
belt. Then, plug in the power cord, insert the key,
and run the treadmill for a few minutes. Repeat
until the walking belt is centered.
b. If the walking belt slips when walked on, first re-
move the key and UNPLUG THE POWER CORD.
Using the hex key, turn both idler roller bolts clock-
wise, 1/4 of a turn. When the walking belt is cor-
rectly tightened, you should be able to lift each side
of the walking belt 2 to 3 in. (5 to 7 cm) off the
walking platform. Be careful to keep the walking
belt centered. Then, plug in the power cord, insert
the key, and carefully walk on the treadmill for a
few minutes. Repeat until the walking belt is prop-
erly tightened.
PROBLEM: The cross walk arms squeak during use
SOLUTION: a. (Note: Correcting this problem requires a small
amount of white marine grease, available at hard-
ware stores.) Turn the Resistance Knob (88) coun-
terclockwise and remove it. Next, remove the
Resistance Cone (85) with the Cross Walk Arm
(82).
Apply a thin layer of white marine grease to the
outer surface of the Resistance Cone (85). Then,
reattach the Resistance Cone with the Cross Walk
Arm (82) and the Resistance Knob (88).
