Leveling

NOTE: If a leveling foot does not make contact with the floor or if it lifts upwards as weight is applied to one corner of the deck, this will cause the running belt to mis-track.

To ensure proper tracking of the running belt, treadmill leveling should be verified.

Symptoms:

Running belt travels to one side.

Treadmill vibrates.

Leveling feet must be adjusted to conform to the floor surface. After the treadmill has been leveled, tracking of the belt must be tested and adjustments made as necessary. This two step procedure is particularly important for treadmill installed in a residence, where floors are commonly uneven. When a treadmill is installed on carpet, a repeat adjustment may be required after the carpet and padding have been compressed by the treadmill feet.

1. Place the treadmill in the exact location where it is to be used.

2. Check the leveling feet at each corner of the treadmill to ensure that they make contact with the floor surface. It may be helpful to have one person bear their weight at one corner of the running belt, then move to another corner, etc., while another person notes whether one or more corners lift from the floor as weight is applied.

----Using a 9/16 inch open end wrench, loosen the lock number (see diagram).

----Adjust leveler height by turning the leveler base. The wrench may be used on the lower nut for this purpose.

----Tighten the lock nut.
