TREADBELT TRACKING ADJUSTMENT:
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.
TO SET 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.
ATTENTION:
DAMAGE TO THE RUNNING BELT RESULTING FROM IMPROPER TRACKING /
