T ENSIONING A N E XISTING S TRIDING B ELT
Under normal usage, the treadmill striding belt may stretch slightly. If the belt starts to slip during use, take the
steps listed below to correct the tension.
1 Using the STOP key, stop the treadmill.
2 Turn the belt tensioning bolts clockwise a quarter-turn per side to tension the belt. Do not exceed one full turn
(four quarter-turns per side).
3 Set the treadmill at 2.0-mph (3,2 kph) and check proper tracking. If the striding belt drifts to the left or right see
Tracking (Centering) an Existing or New Striding Belt on the preceding page.
NOTE: Do not over-tighten the tensioning bolts while making belt adjustments. Over-tightening of bolts may over
stretch and damage the striding belt or roller bearings. Do not exceed one full turn of either bolt in either direction.
