Spirit 7300 manual Treadbelt Tracking Adjustment

TREADBELT TRACKING ADJUSTMENT:

The performance of your treadmill is dependent on the frame running on a reasonably level surface. If the frame is not level, the front and back roller cannot run parallel, and constant belt adjustment may be necessary.

The treadmill is designed to keep the treadbelt reasonably centered while in use. It is normal for some belts to drift near one side while the belt is running with no one on it. After a few minutes of use, the treadbelt should have a tendency to center itself. If, during use, the belt continues to move toward one side, adjustments are necessary.

TO SET TREADBELT TRACKING:

A 6 mm Allen wrench is provided to adjust the rear roller. Make tracking adjustments from the left side only. Set belt

speed at approximately 2 to 3 mph. A small adjustment can make a dramatic difference. Turn the bolt only a 1/4 turn 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. The belt may require periodic tracking adjustment

depending on use and

walking/running characteristics. Some users will 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.

ATTENTION:

DAMAGE TO THE RUNNING BELT RESULTING FROM IMPROPER TRACKING / TENSION ADJUSTMENTS IS NOT COVERED UNDER THE SPIRIT WARRANTY.

BELT / DECK LUBRICATION:

Do not re-lube with other than Spirit lubricant. Spirit provides one application with this unit. See your Spirit dealer for additional purchases. The use of some other lubricants may destroy the deck surface or belt and will void warranty. Conditions exist beyond Spirit’s control on belt / deck cleanliness which relates to friction.

You should apply the enclosed belt lubrication after approximately the first 50 hours of operation. Use all the contents of one container (no more) and spread lubricant onto middle portion (away from edges) of the deck (under treadbelt) along its width. When walked on, the belt will make certain an even coat is applied. Lubricant is not harmful to the skin. Lube will be distributed properly by walking at 2 to 3 mph for 3 to 5 minutes on all areas of the belt. Use handrails for support. The first few minutes you will be polishing your deck and lubricating the belt backing. Do not run on a newly lubricated belt until the above break-in procedure is done. If the treadmill belt/deck is kept reasonably clean it is possible to expect over 1000 hours before additional re-lubing is necessary.

CAUTION - KEEP HANDS CLEAR OF MOVING REAR PULLEY!
