TENSIONING THE BELT

If you can feel a slipping sensation when running on the treadmill, the running belt must be tightened. In most cases, the belt has stretched from use, causing the belt to slip. This is a normal and common adjustment. To eliminate this slipping, ten- sion both the rear roller bolts with the appropriate size allen wrench, turning it 1/4 TURN to the right as shown. Try the

treadmill again to check for slipping. Repeat if necessary, but NEVER TURN the roller bolts more than 1/4 turn at a time. the belt tension is set properly when the running belt is 1/4 of an inch from the deck.

CENTERING THE BELT

If the running belt is too far to the right side, use the supplied Allen wrench to turn the right tension bolt clockwise 1/4 turn at a time until the belt remains centered during use.

If the running belt is too far to the left side, turn the left tension bolt clockwise 1/4 turn at a time until the belt remains centered during use.

IF THE BELT IS TOO FAR TO

THE LEFT SIDE:

Turn the left roller bolt 1/4 turn clockwise (tighten).

IF THE BELT IS TOO FAR TO

THE RIGHT SIDE:

Turn the right roller bolt 1/4 turn clockwise (tighten).
