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.

To adjust the drive belt, you must remove the shield cover and the left shield (see the instructions below).

See EXPLODED DRAWING B on page 27. Using a flat screwdriver, release the tabs along the sides of the Shield Cover (37), and then remove the Shield Cover.

Next, remove the M4 x 16mm Screws (92) and the M4 x 12mm Self-tapping Screws (97) from the Left and Right Shields (44, 45). Make sure to note which size of Screw you remove from each hole. Then, gently remove the Left Shield.

Loosen the Pivot Screw (88). Then, tighten the Drive Belt Adjustment Screw (72) until the Drive Belt (46) is tight.

Then, reattach the left shield and the shield cover.
