Treadbelt tracking adjustment
The treadmill is designed so that the treadbelt remains reasonably
centered while in use. It is normal for some belts to drift near one
side while in use, depending on a user’s gait and if they favor one
leg. But if during use the belt continues to move toward one side,
adjustments are necessary.
Setting treadbelt tracking
An 8mm Allen wrench is provided for this adjustment. Make tracking
adjustments on the left side bolt. Set the belt speed to 3 mph. Be
aware that a small adjustment can make a dramatic difference
which may not be apparent right away. If the belt is too close to the
left side, then turn the bolt only a 1/4 turn to the right (clockwise)
and wait a few minutes for the belt to adjust itself. Continue to
make 1/4 turns until the belt stabilizes in the center of the running
deck.
If the belt is too close to the right side, turn the bolt counter-
clockwise. The belt may require periodic tracking adjustment
depending on use and walking/ running characteristics. Some users
may affect tracking differently. Expect to make adjustments as
required to center the treadbelt. Adjustments will become less of a
maintenance concern as the belt is used. Proper belt tracking is an
owner responsibility common with all treadmills.
Remember, a small adjustment can make a dramatic difference!
