After the treadmill has been installed and leveled, the belt must be checked to confirm proper tracking. First, plug
the power cord into a suitable outlet. See the topic titled Electrical Requirements, which appears earlier in this
section, for details. Then, turn the treadmill ON.
Stand on the siderails of the treadmill and straddle the belt. Press the GO SYSTEM-QUICK START key and
increase the speed to 4.0-mph (6.4 kph) using the SPEED UP ARROW key.
If the striding belt moves to the right, turn the right tension bolt (A) a quarter-turn clockwise with provided quarter-
inch Allen wrench, and then turn the left tension bolt a quarter-turn counter-clockwise (see figure). This sets the
striding belt tracking back to the center of the roller.
If the striding belt moves to the left, turn the left tension bolt a quarter-turn clockwise and then turn the right tension
bolt a quarter-turn counter-clockwise to start striding belt tracking back to the center of the roller.
Repeat adjustments until the striding belt appears centered. The belt should be centered on the roller with an equal
distance (B) on both sides from belt to roller. Allow the machine to continue running for several minutes to observe
if the tracking remains stabilized.
NOTE: Do not exceed one full turn of the adjusting screws in either direction. If, after one full turn, the belt does not
track properly, contact Customer Support Services. The phone numbers are listed in Section 6.4, titled How to
Obtain Product Service.
