The performance of your treadmill is dependent on the frame running on a reasonably level
surface. If the frame is not level, the front and back roller cannot run parallel, and cons ta nt belt
adjustment may be necessary.
The treadmill is designed to keep the treadmill belt reasonably centered while in use. It is
normal for some belts to drift near one side while the belt is running with no one on it. After a
few minutes of use, the treadmill belt should have a tendency to center itself. If, during use, the
belt continues to move toward one side, adjustments are necessary.
TO SET TREADBELT TRACKING:A 6 mm Allen wrench is provided to adjust the rear roller. Make tracking adjustments from the
left side only. Set belt speed at
approximately 2 to 3 mph. A small
adjustment can make a dramatic difference.
Turn the bolt only a 1/4 turn and wait a few
minutes for the belt to adjust itself.
Continue to make 1/4 turns until the belt
stabilizes in the center of the running deck.
The belt may require periodic tracking
adjustment depending on use and
walking/running characteristics. Some
users will affect tracking differently. Expect
to make adjustments as required to center the treadmill belt. Adjustments will become less of a
maintenance concern as the belt is used. Proper belt tracking is an owner responsibility
common with all treadmills.
ATTENTION:
DAMAGE TO THE RUNNING BELT RESULTING FROM IMPROPER TRACKING /
TENSION ADJUSTMENTS IS NOT COVERED UNDER THE SPIRIT WARRANTY.
