PROBLEM: The walking belt is off-centre or slips when walked on
SOLUTION: a. If the walking belt has shifted to the left, first remove
the key and UNPLUG THE POWER CORD. Using the
allen wrench, turn the left rear roller adjustment bolt clock-
wise, and the right bolt counterclockwise, 1/4 of a turn
each. Be careful not to overtighten the walking belt. Plug
in the power cord, insert the key and run the treadmill for
a few minutes. Repeat until the walking belt is centred.
b. If the walking belt has shifted to the right, first remove
the key and UNPLUG THE POWER CORD. Using the
allen wrench, turn the left rear roller adjustment bolt
counterclockwise, and the right bolt clockwise, 1/4 of a
turn each. Be careful not to overtighten the walking belt.
Plug in the power cord, insert the key and run the tread-
mill for a few minutes. Repeat until the walking belt is
centred.
c. If the walking belt slips when walked on, first remove
the key and UNPLUG THE POWER CORD. Using the
allen wrench, turn both rear roller adjustment bolts clock-
wise, 1/4 of a turn. When the walking belt is correctly
tightened, you should be able to lift each side of the walk-
ing belt 3 to 4 inches off the walking platform. The centre
of the walking belt should just touch the walking platform.
Be careful to keep the walking belt centred. Plug in the
power cord, insert the key and run the treadmill for a few
minutes. Repeat until the walking belt is properly tightened.
PROBLEM: The walking belt slows when walked on
SOLUTION: a. Use only a CUL-listed surge protector, rated at 15 amps, with a 14-gauge cord of five feet or less
in length.
b. If the walking belt is overtightened, treadmill perfor-
mance may decrease and the walking belt may be
permanently damaged. Remove the key and UN-
PLUG THE POWER CORD. Using the allen wrench,
turn both rear roller adjustment bolts counterclock-
wise, 1/4 of a turn. When the walking belt is properly
tightened, you should be able to lift each side of the
walking belt 3 to 4 inches off the walking platform. The
centre of the walking belt should just touch the walk-
ing platform. Be careful to keep the walking belt cen-
tred. Plug in the power cord, insert the key and run
the treadmill for a few minutes. Repeat until the walk-
ing belt is properly tightened.
c. If the walking belt still slows when walked on, please call our Customer Service Department toll-free.
