XT285 Treadmill
23
The treadmill is designed so that the tread-belt remains reasonably centered while
in use. It is normal for some belts to drift near one side while in use, depending on
a user’s gait and if they favor one leg. But if during use the belt continues to move
toward one side, adjustments are necessary.
SETTING TREAD-BELT TRACKING
A 6 mm Allen wrench is provided for this
adjustment. Make tracking
adjustments on the left side bolt. Set belt
speed at 3 mph. Be aware that a small
adjustment can make a dramatic
difference which may not be apparent
right away. If the belt is too close to the
left side, then turn the bolt only a 1/4
turn to the right (clockwise) and wait a
few minutes for the belt to adjust itself.
Continue to make 1/4 turns until the belt stabilizes in the center of the running deck.
If the belt is too close to the right side, turn the bolt counter-clockwise. The belt
may require periodic tracking adjustment depending on use and walking/running
characteristics. Some users may affect tracking differently. Expect to make
adjustments as required to center the tread-belt. Adjustments will become less of a
maintenance concern as the belt is used. Proper belt tracking is an owner
responsibility common with all treadmills.
