Leveling the Unit

The treadmill deck must be absolutely level from side to side to keep the belt in alignment and ensure proper operation. If the load is not equally distributed across the treadmill deck, users may feel excessive vibration or observe it at the console. You must make sure the deck is level before allowing anyone to use the treadmill.

Important: Observe the following precautions throughout this procedure:

Adjust only one rear foot at a time.

Do not raise the unit beyond ³⁄₄ inch (2 cm).

Install the unit only on an absolutely even surface. Adjusting the rear feet cannot compensate for variations in the surface under the unit.
