TREADBELT TRACKING ADJUSTMENT:
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 constant belt
adjustment may be necessary.
The treadmill is designed to keep the tread-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 tread-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 rotation
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
tread-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 XTERRA WARRANTY.
MAINTENANCE MODE:
If you want to set the Speed and Distance to Metric or if there is a problem with the speed and you
would like to perform the calibration procedure, use the Maintenance Mode. To enter Maintenance
Mode press, and hold for 5 seconds, the Start and Fast keys while installing the safety key.
• The large display window will now be showing the Roller size. Roller size is used for the
calibration process and should be set to 1.85 for TR250 (2.35 for TR350)
• The large display window will also display the setting for M (miles) or K (Kilometers). Press
the Enter key to change between M and K.
• To run the calibration procedure, press the Start key.
o The display will show a number for the lowest speed setting (for miles the number
should be 0.5). Adjust the low speed setting with the Fast/Slow keys and press Start.
o The display will show a number for the top speed setting (for Miles it should be 10.0).
Adjust the top speed setting and press Start to begin calibration.
o The belt will start automatically and will adjust speeds between low and high. Be
careful because the belt will change speeds without warning. When the calibration is
finished the display will return to the start-up screen.
