TRACKING (CENTERING) AN EXISTING OR NEW STRIDING BELT

1Locate the two access holes to the belt tensioning bolts on each of the rear roller guards.

2Stand on the sides of the treadmill and straddle the belt, not standing on it. Enter the MANUAL Workout and set the belt speed to run at 4.0 mph (6,4 kph).

3If the striding belt has moved to the right, turn the right tension bolt 1/4 turn clockwise with provided 6mm hex key wrench, and then turn the left tension bolt 1/4 turn counter-clockwise to start striding belt tracking back to center of roller.

4If the striding belt has moved 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 center of roller. Repeat adjustments until striding belt appears centered. Allow 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."

TENSIONING AN EXISTING STRIDING BELT

Under normal usage, the treadmill striding belt may stretch slightly. If the belt starts to slip during use, take the steps list- ed below to correct the tension.

1Using the STOP key, stop the treadmill.

2Turn the belt tensioning bolts clockwise a quarter-turn per side to tension the belt. Do not exceed one full turn (four quarter-turns per side).

3Set the treadmill at 2.0-mph (3,2 kph) and get on to make sure the belt no longer slips. Also, check the striding belt’s tracking. If the striding belt drifts to the left or right see Tracking (Centering) an Existing or New Striding Belt.

NOTE: Do not over-tighten the tensioning bolts while making belt adjustments. Over-tightening of bolts may over stretch and damage the striding belt or roller bearings. Do not exceed one full turn of either bolt in either direction.
