Adjusting the Tracking
Perform this procedure whenever the belt moves to one side or the other. Stay
off the belt when adjusting the tracking.
1. Start the treadmill at minimum speed and incline.
2. Increase speed to 5 mph and make the following adjustment:
a. If the belt moves to the right, turn the right tension bolt ¼ turn clockwise.
b. If the belt moves to the left, turn the left tension bolt ¼ turn clockwise.
3. After making an initial adjustment, run the treadmill for five minutes and
observe how the belt tracks. If the belt continues to move away from the
center, adjust the appropriate side as in Step 2 until properly centered.

IMPORTANT Do not over tighten walking belt! The belt need only
be tight enough to prevent it from slipping during use. Excessive belt tension will
decrease belt life and can damage the treadmill rollers and drive system.
Belt Replacement
If the walking belt becomes worn from heavy usage, it may need to be replaced.
