HOW TO ADJUST THE DRIVE BELT

If you can feel the pedals slip while you are pedaling, even when the resistance is adjusted to the highest level, the drive belt may need to be adjusted.

See EXPLODED DRAWING B on page 37. Remove the M4 x 16mm Screws (93) and the M4 x 42mm Screws (124) from the Right and Left Shields (18, 19).

Make sure to note which size Screws come from which holes. Then, carefully remove the Left Shield.

To adjust the drive belt, first unplug the power cord. Using a flat screwdriver, release the tabs on the Top Cover (20) and pry the Top Cover upward off the elliptical.

Next, lift the Latch (117) on the underside of the Left Pedal Arm (13), and then lift the Left Pedal Arm off the left Sleeve (136).

Loosen the Pivot Screw (97). Tighten the Belt Adjustment Screw (85) until the Drive Belt (38) is tight. When the Drive Belt is tight, tighten the Pivot Screw.
