PROBLEM: The walking belt is off-center or slips when walked on

 

SOLUTION: a. If the walking belt is off-center, first remove the

a

key and UNPLUG THE POWER CORD. If the

walking belt has shifted to the left, use the hex

 

key to turn the left idler roller bolt clockwise 1/2 of

 

a turn; if the walking belt has shifted to the

 

right, turn the left idler roller bolt counterclockwise

 

1/2 of a turn. Be careful not to overtighten the

 

walking belt. Then, plug in the power cord, insert

 

the key, and run the treadmill for a few minutes.

 

Repeat until the walking belt is centered.

 

b. If the walking belt slips when walked on, first re-

b

move the key and UNPLUG THE POWER CORD.

Using the hex key, turn both idler roller bolts clock-

 

wise, 1/4 of a turn. When the walking belt is cor-

 

rectly tightened, you should be able to lift each

 

edge of the walking belt 2 to 3 in. (5 to 7 cm) off

 

the walking platform. Be careful to keep the walk-

 

ing belt centered. Then, plug in the power cord, in-

 

sert the key, and carefully walk on the treadmill for

 

a few minutes. Repeat until the walking belt is

 

properly tightened.
