To eliminate this slipping, turn the treadmill off and tension both the rear roller bolts with the appropriate size allen wrench, turning it 1/4 TURN to the right as shown.

Troubleshooting & Maintenance Procedures COMMON PRODUCT QUESTIONS ARE THE SOUNDS MY TREADMILL MAKES NORMAL? All treadmills make a certain type of thumping noise due to the belt riding over the rollers, especially new treadmills. This noise will diminish over time, although may not totally go away. Over time, the belt will stretch, causing the belt to ride smoother over the rollers.
TROUBLESHOOTING - TREADMILLS PROBLEM: The running belt does not stay centered during a workout. SOLUTION: Verify that the treadmill is on a level surface. Verify that the belt is properly tightened and centered (Refer to the ADJUSTMENT section) TROUBLESHOOTING - HEART RATE Check your exercise environment for sources of interference such as fluorescent lights, computers, or appliances containing large motors. These items may cause erratic heart rate readouts.
MAINTENANCE Cleanliness of your treadmill and its operation environment will keep maintenance problems and service calls to a minumum. For this reason, we recommend that the following preventive maintenance schedule be followed. AFTER EACH USE (DAILY) Clean and inspect, following these steps: • Turn off the treadmill with the on/off switch, then unplug the power cord at the wall outlet. • Wipe down the running belt, deck, motor cover, and console casing with a damp cloth.
Conditioning Guidelines Always consult your physician before beginning an exercise program. HOW OFTEN? The American Heart Association recommends that you exercise at least 3 to 4 days per week to maintain cardiovascular fitness. If you have other goals such as weight or fat loss, you will achieve your goal faster with more frequent exercise. Whether it’s 3 days or 6 days, remember that your ultimate goal should be to make exercise a lifetime habit.
TARGET ZONE HEART RATE CHART Your Target Zone is a percentage of your maximum heart rate. Target Zone will vary for each individual, depending on age, current level of conditioning, and personal fitness goals. The American Heart Association recommends working-out at a Target Heart Rate Zone of between 60% and 75% of your maximum heart rate. See the chart below for convenient reference.
DEVELOPING A FITNESS PROGRAM STRETCH FIRST Before using your product, it is best to take a few minutes doing a few gentle stretching exercises. Stretching prior to exercise will improve flexibility and reduce chances of exercise related injury. Ease into each of these stretches with a slow gentle motion. Do not stretch to the point of pain. Make sure not to bounce while doing these stretches.
ACHIEVING YOUR FITNESS GOALS An important step in developing a long term fitness program is to determine your goals. Is your primary goal for exercising on your treadmill to lose weight? Improve muscle? Burn stress? Prepare for the spring racing schedule? Knowing what your goals are will help you develop a more successful exercise program.
