PROBLEM: The walking belt slows when walked on
S
OLUTION: a
. If an extension cord is needed, use only a 3-conductor, 1mm
2
(
14-gauge) cord that is no longer
than 1.5 m (5 ft.).
b. If the walking belt is overtightened, treadmill perfor-
mance may decrease and the walking belt may be-
come damaged. Remove the key and UNPLUG THE
POWER CORD. Using the hex key, turn both rear
roller bolts counterclockwise, 1/4 of a turn. When the
walking belt is properly tightened, you should be able
to lift each side of the walking belt 5 to 7 cm (2 to 3
in.) off 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.
c. If the walking belt still slows when walked on, please call our Customer Service Department.
PROBLEM: The walking belt is off-centre or slips when walked on
SOLUTION:
a. If the walking belt is off-centre, first remove the key

walking belt has shifted to the right, turn the bolt
counterclockwise 1/2 of a turn. Be careful not to over-
tighten 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 centered.
b. If the walking belt slips when walked on, first remove
the key and UNPLUG THE POWER CORD. Using the
hex key, turn both rear roller bolts clockwise, 1/4 of a
turn. When the walking belt is correctly tightened, you
should be able to lift each side of the walking belt 5 to
7 cm (2 to 3 in.) off the walking platform. Be careful to
keep the walking belt centred. Plug in the power cord,
insert the key, and walk on the treadmill for a few min-
utes. Repeat until the walking belt is properly tight
