All parts of the treadmill must be checked and tightened regularly. Worn out parts must be
replaced immediately.
BELT ADJUSTMENT
You may need to adjust the running belt during the first few weeks of use. All running belts are
properly set at the factory. It may stretch of be off centre after use. Stretching is normal during
the "breaking in" period.
ADJUSTING THE BELT TENSION:
If the running belt feels as though it is slipping or hesitating when you place your foot during a
run, the tension on the running belt may have to be increased.
TO INCREASE THE RUNNING BELT TENSION:
1. Place 8mm wrench on the left belt tension bolt. Turn the wrench clockwise 1/4 turn to draw
the rear roller and increase the belt tension.
2. Repeat STEP 1 for the right belt tension bolt. You must be sure to turn both bolts the same
number of turns, so the rear roller will stay square relative to the frame.
3. Repeat STEP 1 and STEP 2 until the slipping is eliminated.
4. Be careful not to tighten the running belt tension too much as you can create excessive
pressure on the front and rear roller bearings. An excessively tightened running belt may
damage the roller bearings that would result in bearing noise from the front and rear rollers.
TO DECREASE THE TENSION ON THE RUNNING BELT, TURN BOTH BOLTS
COUNTER-CLOCKWISE THE SAME NUMBER OF TRUNS.
CENTRING THE RUNNING BELT
When you run, you may push off harder with one foot than with another. The severity of the
deflection depends on the amount of force that one foot exerts in the relation to the other. This
deflection can cause the belt to move off- centre. This deflection is normal and the running belt
will centre when no body is on the running belt. If the running belt remains consistently
off-centre, you will need to centre the running belt manually.
Start the treadmill without anyone on the running belt, press FAST-key until speed reached
6kph.
1. Observe whether the running belt is toward the right or left side of the deck.
●If toward the left side of the deck, using wrench, turn the left adjustment bolt clockwise 1/4
turn and the left adjustment bolt counter clockwise 1/4.
● If toward the right side of the deck, turn the right adjustment bolt clockwise 1/4 turn and the
left adjustment bolt counter clockwise 1/4.
