PROBLEM: The walking belt slows when walked on

SOLUTION: a. Use only a CUL-listed surge suppressor, rated at 15 amps, with a 14-gauge cord of five feet or less in length.


b. If the walking belt is overtightened, treadmill perfor-
mance may decrease and the walking belt may be
permanently damaged. Remove the key and		UN-
PLUG THE POWER CORD	. Using the allen wrench,

turn both rear roller adjustment bolts counterclock- wise, 1/4 of a turn. When the walking belt is properly tightened, you should be able to lift each side of the walking belt 3 to 4 inches (7–10 cm) off the walking platform. Be careful to keep the walking belt centered.

Plug in the power cord, insert the key and run the treadmill for a few minutes. Repeat until the walking belt is properly tightened.
