Commercial Treadmill Assembly Guide 10
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. Turn the unit ON.
2. Stand beside the treadmill and press QU ICKSTART.
3. If needed, enter the password by pressing the following keys
in sequence: INCLINE ▼, SPEED ▼, SPEED ▲.
The running belt starts automatically after a 3-second
countdown appears on the display.
4. Press the SPEE D ▲ 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 button. Contact
Precor Customer Support.
5. Walk around to the rear of the unit and observe the belt for a
few minutes. The belt should run centered along the running
bed. If the belt drifts off center, you must make adjustments.
Important: If the belt needs alignment, make the adjustments
at once. 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 button.
7. Turn the treadmill OFF.
Note: Instructions in the Product Owner’s Manual explain how
to adjust the running belt.
