BELT ADJUSTMENTS
Tread-belt Tension Adjustment - Belt tension is not critical for
most users. It is very important though for joggers and runners
in order to provide a smooth, steady running surface.
Adjustment must be made from the rear roller with the 8mm
Allen wrench provided in the parts package. The adjustment
bolts are located at the end of the step rails as shown in the
diagram to the right.
Tighten the rear roller only enough to prevent slippage at the front roller. Turn the tread-belt tension adjusting
bolts 1/4 turn each and inspect for proper tension by walking on the belt and making sure it is not slipping or
hesitating with each step. When an adjustment is made to the belt tension, you must be sure to turn the bolts
on both sides evenly or the belt could start tracking to one side instead of running in the middle of the deck.
DO NOT OVER TIGHTEN – Over tightening will cause belt damage and premature bearing failure. If you tighten the belt
a lot and it still slips, the problem could actually be the drive belt - located under the motor
cover - that connects the motor to the front roller. If that belt is loose it feels similar to the walking belt being loose.
Tightening the motor belt should be done by a trained service person.
BELT/DECK
Your treadmill uses a very high-efcient and proprietary belt/deck combination. Performance is maximized
when the deck is kept as clean as possible. Use a soft, damp cloth, or paper towel, wipe the edge of the belt
and the area between the belt edge and the frame. Also reach as far as practical directly under the belt edge.
This should be done once a month to extend belt and deck life. A mild soap and water solution along with a
nylon scrub brush will clean the top of the textured belt. Allow to dry before using. The low maintenance (routine
monthly cleaning), dual sided deck is designed to withstand up to 4,000 hrs on each side. If the original side
of the deck use is over 4000 hrs, then it needs to be ipped. Contact your service technician for assistance. Do
not apply any type of lubricant or wax to the surface.
