TENSIONING THE BELT
Running Belt
If when you plant your foot on the belt, you can feel a slipping sensation then the belt has stretched and is slip- ping across the rollers. This is a normal and common adjustment on a new treadmill. To eliminate this slipping, tension both the rear roller Allen bolts 1/4 TURN as shown above. Try the treadmill again to check for slip- ping. Repeat if necessary, but NEVER TURN the roller bolts more than 1/4 turn at a time. CAUTION: OVER-
TIGHTENING OF THE ROLLER WILL SEVERELY SHORTEN THE LIFE OF THE BELT AND MAY CAUSE FURTHER DAMAGE TO OTHER COMPONENTS.
