Centering the Belt | Life Fitness T5I instruction

1.2.5CENTERING THE BELT

After the treadmill has been installed and leveled, the belt must be checked to confirm proper tracking. First, plug the power cord into an appropriate outlet (see electrical requirements) and turn the treadmill ON.

Stand on the sides of the treadmill and straddle the belt, not standing on it at this time. Press the Go System-Quick Start Key and increase the speed to 4.0-mph (6,4 kph) using the Speed Up Arrow Key.

While the treadmill is running, if the striding belt moves to the right, turn the right tension bolt (A) 1/4 turn clockwise with provided ¼” Allen wrench, and then turn the left tension bolt 1/4 turn counter-clockwise (see figure). This sets the striding belt tracking back to the center of the roller.

If the striding belt moves to the left, turn the left tension bolt 1/4 turn clockwise and then turn the right tension bolt 1/4 turn counter-clockwise to start striding belt tracking back to the center of the roller.

Repeat adjustments until the striding belt appears centered. The belt should be centered on the roller with an equal distance (B) on both sides from belt to roller. Allow the machine to continue running for several minutes to observe if tracking remains stabilized.

NOTE: Do not exceed one full turn of the adjusting screws in either direction. If after one full turn the belt does not track properly, contact Customer Support Services. The phone numbers are listed in "How to Obtain Product Service."
