Life Fitness 91Ti, 90T Removing the Accessory Trays, HOW to Adjust and Tension the Striding Belt

6.5REMOVING THE ACCESSORY TRAYS

The accessory trays should be removed and cleaned periodically. See section 6.2, titled Preventive Maintenance Schedule. To remove a tray, press inward the clip at the rear of the tray, and pull the tray out. To reinsert the tray, line up the notch in front with small slit and snap the top edge back into locked position.

6.6HOW TO ADJUST AND TENSION THE STRIDING BELT

Do not move the treadmill or place hands under treadmill while it is plugged into an electrical outlet!

THE BELT TENSIONING BOLTS

A 5/16-inch hex key wrench is required for this task. The Life Fitness treadmill has access holes in the rear roller guards which allow access to the tensioning bolts. These tensioning bolts make it possible to adjust the tracking and centering of the striding belt (A) without removing the guards.

NOTE: It is extremely important that the treadmill be correctly leveled prior to any tracking adjustments. An unstable unit may cause striding belt misalignment. See the topic titled How To Stabilize the Life Fitness Treadmill in Section 1.2, titled Set Up, prior to attempting any rear roller adjustments.

Before proceeding, it is helpful to visualize the REAR ROLLER (B) pivot point (C). Each adjust- ment made to one side of the ROLLER must be met with an equal and opposite adjustment (D) to the other side of the ROLLER to maintain an ideal belt tension at the pivot point.
