Checking the Alignment of the Running Belt

Proper belt alignment allows the belt to remain centered and ensures smooth operation. Realigning the belt takes a few simple adjustments. If you are unsure about this procedure, call Precor Customer Support. Refer to Obtaining Service.

CAUTION: Special care must be taken when aligning the running belt. Turn Off the treadmill while adjusting or working near the rear roller. Remove any loose clothing and tie back your hair. Be very careful to keep your fingers and any other object clear of the belt and rollers, especially in front of the roller and behind the deck. The treadmill will not stop immediately if an object becomes caught in the belt or rollers.

1.The treadmill has adjustable rear feet. Make sure that the running surface is level. If the treadmill is placed on an uneven surface, adjusting the rear feet can help, but will not compensate for extremely uneven surfaces.

2.Turn the unit On.

3.Stand beside the treadmill and press QUICKSTART.

The running belt starts automatically after a 3-second countdown appears on the display.

4.Press the SPEED up arrow key until the display shows a speed of 3 mph (5 kph).

CAUTION: If you hear any chafing or the running belt appears to be getting damaged, stop the running belt immediately by pressing the red STOP key. Contact Precor Customer Support.

5.Walk around to the rear of the unit and observe the belt for a few minutes. The belt should be centered on the running belt. If the belt drifts off center, you must make adjustments. Refer to Adjusting the Running Belt.

Important: Failure to align the belt may cause the belt to tear or fray, which is not covered by the Precor Limited Warranty.

6.To stop the running belt, press the red STOP key.

7.Turn the treadmill Off.
