PROBLEM: The walking belt is off-center or slips when walked on
SOLUTION: a. If the walking belt is off-center, first remove the
k
ey and UNPLUG THE POWER CORD. If the
walking belt has shifted to the left, use the hex
k
ey to turn the left idler roller bolt clockwise 1/2 of a
turn; if the walking belt has shifted to the right,
turn the left idler roller bolt counterclockwise 1/2 of
a turn. Be careful not to overtighten the walking
belt. Then, 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 re-
move the key and UNPLUG THE POWER CORD.
Using the hex key, turn both idler roller bolts clock-
wise, 1/4 of a turn. When the walking belt is cor-
rectly tightened, you should be able to lift each
edge of the walking belt 2 to 3 in. (5 to 7 cm) off
the walking platform. Be careful to keep the walk-
ing belt centered. Then, plug in the power cord, in-
sert the key, and carefully walk on the treadmill for
a few minutes. Repeat until the walking belt is
properly tightened.
LUBRICATING THE WALKING BELT
When the treadmill is used regularly, lubricate the walking belt every two to six months. If the underside of the
walking belt does not feel slick to the touch, lubricate the walking belt. If additional lubricant is needed, see the
front cover of this manual.
To lubricate the walking belt, remove the key from the console
and unplug the power cord. Pull the left and right edges of the
walking belt toward the idler roller, until the seam of the walking
belt is above the middle of the walking platform. Avoid pinching
your fingers.
Insert the spray valve into the lubricant bottle. Lift the right edge
of the walking belt and spray lubricant underneath the walking
belt for approximately four seconds. Make sure to spray lubricant
near the center of the walking belt and near the front and back of
the treadmill. Repeat this step on the left side of the tread-
mill. Wait one minute before starting the treadmill.
