1. Stand beside the treadmill, insert the safety
key into the bottom of the control panel and
follow operating instructions for running the
treadmill at 5 mph. (Section 2.5)
2. If the belt is off-center to the right, turn the
left roller adjustment bolt counter clock-wise
1/4 turn. If the belt is off-center to the left,
turn the left roller adjustment bolt 1/4 turn
clockwise. (Figure 1 Detail 1)
3. Let the machine run for several minutes to
check the alignment. (Belt alignment does
not need to be perfect). If more correction is
needed, turn the adjustment bolt 1/4 turn
and check again.
TREADBELT TENSION:
To assure maximum life of the treadbelt, roller
and drive motor, make sure the treadbelt
tension is set correctly. (Your treadbelt has
been properly tensioned at the factory.)
•Turn both rear roller adjustment bolts
(Detail 1) counter-clockwise until treadbelt
just begins slipping when walking on it, then
turn both rear roller adjustment bolts
clockwise in equal quarter turn increments
until treadbelt stops slipping. NOTE: Be
sure to run on treadbelt to ensure that the
treadbelt does not slip while under load.
