ATTENTION: the
belt must be replaced if:
- it is not
possible to tension (it continues to slip even after having it
tightened)
- the black
rubber is damaged or dry
-
it tends to open up where there is a joint
- has swollen and
touches the frame
- the white cloth
underneath the belt is damaged or missing
In all these
cases you can buy a low friction running
belt for your treadmill
on our e-shop
If you need spare
parts or assistance, contact us.
Preliminary
operations
1. Before
starting, make sure the treadmill is turned off and unplugged from
the power outlet.
2. To remove
dust, pass the vacuum cleaner suction nozzle around the visible
components.
3. For the
removal of films or dirt, use a damp cloth with a mild detergent
applied on the cloth only.
4. Do not immerse
the components of the treadmill in any type of liquid.
Belt
alignment
Make sure the
walking belt is always centered to the
treadmill frame. The way you run
on the treadmill and a non-flat floor
surface are two possible causes of belt
misalignment.
When the belt
is misaligned, it is necessary to act on the two
adjustment bolts on the treadmill back.
1. Press "START"
to start the running belt and then increase the belt speed up
to 5 Km/h.
2. Stand behind
the treadmill to determine in which
direction the belt tends to move.
3. If the belt
moves to the left, turn the left adjustment bolt a quarter of a turn
clockwise and the right bolt a quarter turn counterclockwise
(See FIG. C)
4. If the belt
moves to the right, turn the left adjustment bolt a quarter turn in
the counterclockwise direction and the
right bolt a quarter turn clockwise (See FIGURE D)
5. Observe the
path of the belt for about one
minute. If necessary, repeat the operations in steps 3, 4
and 5.
Adjustment of
the tension of the treadmill belt
Adjust the
tension of the treadmill belt if it starts
to slip on the rollers.
Keep the belt
as slow as possible while adjusting the treadmill belt tension.
1. Press "START"
to start the treadmill, then set the speed
to 1 Km/h.
2. Slow down the
belt holding yourself
firmly to the handlebar and applying more weight on
the belt as if walking downhill. By
breaking considerably, the belt
may slip.
3. If the belt
slips, stop the treadmill, turn both
the screws a quarter of a turn clockwise and repeat steps 2-3
if necessary.
Note: take care
not to over-tension the belt. Stop as soon
as the belt no longer slips.
If it keeps slipping, replace the belt.
